Explosion Plays!

This game needs to be uptempo and determined entirely by the Notre Dame offense. Nevada runs the ball. And even though they do it well, it's hard to game plan a 50/50 run to pass offense when you're down 3 scores.

Notre Dame needs to have explosion every possession. Whether it's Allen exploding for a 20 yard run, Tate exploding for a 40 yard catch, or an explosive screen play (that we all know is coming). Explosive plays helps to damage the defense's will. Don't get me wrong, I'll take the grind it out game if we can continually move the ball, but I feel with Nevada's ability to run the ball and create offense themselves, we need to explode out to a big lead and kill their game plan.

'Nough said.
