ND VS PITT
Which team shows up for this away game at Pittsburgh?
After stumbling around searching for a Head Coach they landed the high octane offense of the Tulsa head coach Todd Graham–we all remember Tulsa from last year but now he has better players.
I briefly watched Pitt vs Iowa and was shocked that Iowa came back to win the game. Prior to that I was impressed by Pitt QB Sunseri.
Nevertheless ND should roll Pitt even though it’s an away game and starts at 12 noon on ABC. Of course, penchant for sloppy play and turnovers could sink my prediction. Somehow or other Rees just has to be able to throw long or defenses will just dare him to and play only short passes–can Rees do it? don’t know but it is hurting this offense. It is also wasting Mike Floyd on just short dumps. This has worked so far but it leaves Floyd open to major hits–we want him in space and not anywhere around hits by Linebackers.
Once again victory rests on the offensive and defensive lines. I’m not worried about the DL but not sold on the OL or Rees.
Aaron Lynch has another monster game and ND rolls.
Prediction:
ND 48 PITT 30
