Most of their cut blocking, and borderline chop blocking, occurs during the veer option runs.
Get a good lead early, take away the option for running those long drives, and the injuries will be much fewer.
Time of possession is their only weapon. But we have to prepare for them going for 4th downs a lot.

Did you take bets on how many ACLs would be blown out against Stanford?
Ridiculous.
Like Stanford.
Doesn’t mean we shouldn’t kick the shit out of em.
But the odds of injury are greater. That’s a fact.
So if you’re gonna play a shitty or mediocre team, why play one that has a statistically better chance of injuring your defenders? Plenty of others around. And this debt bullshit is real old.
Where are the statistics that prove ND has lost more defenders to knee injuries over the last 30 years vs Navy than vs USC?
I have never heard a single announcer utter a word about cut blocking while watching a Navy game
...a good ND team should beat a (now) 2-4 Navy team decisively.
If we are unable to do that...it may well be a long November again.
We see/hear every year about Navy
They are frickin 2-4 and suck
But you all prop them up like they are the second coming
If we deserve to be #4 then this and the remainder of the schedule is a cake walk
The rest is just bullshit
...the year Staubach won the Heisman.
I don't want to hear about their schemes and discipline. Good teams with good coaches should beat them convincingly.
(For instance, in 2012 ND won 50-10...)
but in recent years Navy has played better in general.
And therefore they take it out on us by breaking our legs
Just like how they break everyone else's legs
Oh wait, I have never heard an announcer utter a word about that
teams. While I agree that Navy has a good coach and is well-disciplined, there is no excuse at all for Notre Dame to lose to Navy on a regular basis.
Even with things currently as they are, ND should lose to Navy about once in every 25 years in a terrible fluke.
Losses to Navy are solid evidence of poor coaching on behalf of the Irish...

and all of our speed on the outside + the leadership of Drew Tranquill. IMO, we match up very well against them. However, they
are always very disciplined. GO IRISH
