Notre Dame Eyes Rice’s Triple Option | Notre Dame Fighting Irish Football News

Notre Dame, ranked third, crushed Wisconsin 41-13 and now faces a brutal six-day turnaround to take on Rice in their home opener. With Rice’s triple-option offense churning out 465 rushing yards and dual-threat QB Jacurri Brown, the Irish defense—missing safety Brauntae Johnson—will rely on Luke Talich. Notre Dame’s offense, led by smart QB CJ Carr and dynamic receivers, isn’t sleeping either. Rice’s coach Scott Abell knows they’re in for a tough fight, even calling Carr a Heisman contender. This high-stakes, fast-paced matchup promises to be a true test for the Fighting Irish. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
