2. Irish must take advantage of clear advantages

Notre Dame has the advantage everywhere on the field in this game.

There isn’t anything that Bowling Green can do that should bother the Irish, and Notre Dame must take advantage of that. They are the ones with the four and five-star caliber players on their roster, after all. Similar to the first point, use that to the fullest advantage.

The only way Notre Dame might be in any trouble in this one would be if they have to play walk-ons because everyone good botulism or salmonella from the pre-game meal. And their third-stringers and walk-on players should be good enough to beat Bowling Green.

For the sake of sounding redundant, elite teams come out against lesser teams firing, and Notre Dame with their superior offensive and defensive lines should do just that.
