Last week's Notre Dame triumph over UNLV provided an example of the Fighting Irish's ability to score a lot of points without passing the ball well.
They scored 44 points while completing 50 percent of their passes.
Last week, Syracuse gave up over 200 rushing yards to Clemson's top two running backs, and Notre Dame has both the running back committee and the physical and well-sized offensive line to replicate that success.
On defense, the Fighting Irish are prone to giving up big plays.
Their tackling is often inconsistent, and this is a problem for dealing with Orange running back Sean Tucker, who is demonstrably capable of making big plays every week.
