Notre Dame Football: 3 keys to victory vs. Boston College in Week 13

After back-to-back dominant performances, what does Notre Dame football have to do to get a third against Boston College?

Notre Dame has been on fire in the month of November, taking down Duke and Navy by a combined 63 points after a come from behind victory over Virginia Tech. The Irish have fared well against ACC opponents in 2019, boasting a 4-0 record on the season. Boston College will serve as the fifth and final ACC opponent on Notre Dame’s schedule, offering a bit more appeal to this game.

If you’ve been following Notre Dame football up to this point in the season, you’ve likely noticed the continuation of a concerning trend. Despite an 8-2 record, the Irish have failed to come up big against the nation’s elite, an issue that has plagued Brian Kelly over the course of his 10 year tenure as head coach at Notre Dame.

Nevertheless, three straight wins have put that conversation on the back-burner, at least for now. You can only beat the teams in front of you, so here’s how the Irish can do that as they match up with Boston College for the 24th time in program history.
