This is Irish Illustrated Insider.

I'm Tim Freese with Tim O'Malley from Irish Illustrated with Pete Sampson from the Athletic.

We're here to review Georgia Tech in Notre Dame, but we're also here, obviously,

you talk about number four, Notre Dame against number one, Clemson.

Moving the process along a little bit more quickly this

week just because of the nature of the game as Nordame takes on the number one Tigers.

But we do need to speak a little bit about what happened against George's Tech.

And Nordame off to another great start. They left, they left too many points on the field, which is frustrating after they had such a strong performance against Pittsburgh.

But the defense did its job once again.

Holder Jemir Gibbs is good.

He's really good.

He's going to be really, really good.

But in typical, and we talked going to be really, really good.

But in typical, and we talked about this last week, typical Clarkley fashion,

they pretty much shut everybody else down, including the quarterback, Jeff Sims,

who has 277 yards net rushing now, and he had two against Notre Dame.

And I think, you know, similar to Malik similar to Malik Cunningham in that when you take that part of his game away, um, you know, now you really

reduce what they can do overall offensively. I think points in the field was a takeaway. As you

mentioned, Tim, I wrote about it, uh, you, 31.13 with three trips to the red zone that were a fumble recovery touchdown, a field goal, and then not getting in at the end, which is only relevant in that it's happened a couple times now, punch that thing in.

And also relevant in that they didn't cover the spread for those of us that might have considered they were going to cover the spread prior to the game.

It had such means to access a way of that mattering to them.

Yeah, you know, you're going to kick a field goal once in a while down there, but you get two touchdowns out of that.
