Summary

Pete is in Blacksburg where Notre Dame stole a win in a tough road environment at Virginia Tech. Matt is in Chicago and gives his big picture take on what this means for the program moving forward. The QB position is an absolute mess and Jack Coan bailed the Irish out late after getting benched earlier in the game. Did Coan earn the start vs. USC? The schedule looks manageable which means 11-1 is still realistic despite tonight's issues. Plus, defensive takeaways.
