Cole Arguello's blog ::Notre Dame News










Perhaps               it               was               only               the               first               game               of               the               season,               but               Irish               eyes               are               surely               smiling               as               the               Brian               Kelly               era               at               Notre               Dame               began               with               a               23-12               victory               over               Purdue.

The               Irish               may               not               have               looked               like               a               national               championship               caliber               team               but               there               is               a               definite               noticeable               difference               as               compared               to               years               past.

The               fans               were               excited,               the               leprechaun               had               to               do               push-ups,               and               the               players               were               smiling               and               actually               looked               like               they               were               having               fun.

Brian               Kelly               has               been               successful               at               Grand               Valley               State,               Central               Michigan,               and               Cincinnati.

He               now               has               the               arduous               task               of               returning               Notre               Dame               to               the               level               of               success               that               has               not               been               seen               since               Lou               Holtz.

Irish               fans               can               feel               it.

Sure,               they               have               said               that               with               Tyrone               Willingham               and               Charlie               Weiss--but               this               time               it               is               real?

Right?
               Despite               some               minor               issues,               Notre               Dame               had               a               solid               performance               against               Purdue.

One               noticeable               difference               was               what               seemed               to               be               a               stronger               defense               than               we               have               seen               in               previous               years.

The               Irish               defense               limited               Purdue               to               321               offensive               yards.

Purdue               managed               to               rush               for               104               yards               and               had               217               passing               yards.

Notre               Dame               also               forced               two               interceptions,               including               a               key               Darrin               Walls               interception               on               the               Notre               Dame               16               yard               line.

The               defense               also               tallied               four               sacks.

Brian               Kelly's               teams               have               not               been               known               for               defense.

Last               year,               Cincinnati's               unbelievably               successful               team               gave               up               numerous               points.

If               Notre               Dame's               defense               surprisingly               seems               to               look               better               than               last               year,               this               could               be               a               positive               sign               for               things               to               come.
               Offensively,               Dayne               Crist               had               a               strong               game.

He               was               19/26               with               a               total               of               204               yards               passing               and               one               touchdown               pass               to               TJ               Jones.

Crist               looked               poised               at               the               quarterback               position               and               was               able               to               successfully               find               a               variety               of               receivers.

Kyle               Rudolph               and               Michael               Floyd               were               the               favored               receivers.

Floyd               led               the               way               with               five               receptions               for               81               yards.

Rushing,               Armando               Allen               was               just               8               yards               shy               of               breaking               the               100               mark               and               Cierre               Wood               had               7               carries               for               58               yards.
               Notre               Dame's               noticeable               weakness               was               fumbling               the               ball.

Even               if               they               only               lost               one               out               of               their               four               fumbles,               the               Irish               need               to               address               this               before               facing               Michigan               next               week.

Notre               Dame               was               lucky               on               many               occasions               to               recover               the               fumble.
               Next               week               will               be               a               true               test               of               how               much               Kelly               has               improved               the               team.

Michigan               had               a               solid               performance               from               their               offensive               line               against               Connecticut.

Notre               Dame's               defense               will               have               to               play               aggressive               to               pressure               Michigan's               quarterback.

It               will               definitely               not               be               as               easy               as               penetrating               Purdue's               offensive               line.
