Yeah, their QB play really suffered that game, Clemson’s sub looked terrible that night, that really decided the game
Oh wait.....
Etienne <100yds @ 1 ypc
ND 208 yds rushing @ 5 ypc
Clemson QB ~500 yds
Notre Dame had a great plan on 11/7, played out of their asses, and caught Clemson off guard with our defensive physicality, Book’s running ability, and our running backs.
In the ACC championship game, Dabo and Venebles adjusted and played pissed. ND didn’t have a passing answer with Clemson throwing everything to bottle up the run and spying Book.
It’s really that simple.
