To say we’d be a lock to beat Cincinnati… by BeastOfBourbon

if we played them again is a reach. Just because the offense has looked better against lousy defenses does not mean that it is really any better. Ditto the defense. I’ve watched enough of Cincinnati’s recent games to conclude that they’re still a fundamentally better team than we are. Starting with the most important position, the quarterback.

No matter what Mike Tirico and others are reading from their Jack Swarbrick authored scripts, it remains inconclusive whether Notre Dame has actually addressed some of it’s earlier flaws, or if those flaws have merely been disguised by the ineptitude of our opponents. I don’t mean to be a wet blanket, but I’ve endured enough of Brian Kelly’s smoke and mirrors to suspect it’s a good dose of the latter.

I guess we’ll only find out for certain when and if we play a legitimate bowl game opponent.
