Notre Dame didn't play a complete game but was in control from the start. It is two wins away from reaching the College Football Playoff and will likely return to its home field for a First-Round playoff game.

The old saying is that if you win the turnover battle, you'll win the game. Although that isn't always true, it is a lot more often than it's not. Notre Dame's defense was truly dominant on Saturday (more on that later), but the most important thing it did was turn Virginia over. Notre Dame turned Virginia's first four turnovers into the first 28 points of the game.

After Chris Tyree muffed the opening kickoff for Virginia, Notre Dame scored a few plays later to take a 7-0 lead. As well as things went for Notre Dame by the time the game was over, the next four possessions were not the case as the Irish went three-and-out on those possessions, totaling just 20 yards along the way and keeping Virginia in the game longer than necessary.

While this game was competitive, Notre Dame's defense played absolutely lights out. Virginia's first 11 possessions consisted of 41 plays, totaling 138 yards and no points. That's an average of just 3.6 yards per play, and coupled with the forced turnovers, it put things out of reach for Virginia before the teams hit the locker rooms for halftime.

2024 Notre Dame Fighting Irish Football Schedule

Notre Dame’s proud history is what makes them such a powerful brand. As conference realignment heats up, Notre Dame can maintain its independence.

Notre Dame has a total of 11 claimed and 11 unclaimed national championships. The Fighting Irish have a litany of iconic coaches in their history. Namely, Knute Rockne, Frank Leahy, Ara Parseghian, Dan Devine, and Brian Kelly have led the Fighting Irish to success and glory.

And with great coaches have been great players. Heisman trophy winners Angelo Bertelli, Johnny Lujack, Leon Hart, Johnny Lattner, Paul Hornung, John Huarte, and Tim Brown are among them.

And then there was “The Gipper,” George Gipp, who was portrayed in a motion picture. An actor named Ronald Reagan played the role of Gipp and went on to be President of the United States. On campaign stops, Reagan often asked voters to “win one for the Gipper.”

Despite their success, Notre Dame has not won a national championship since 1988. The landscape of college football has changed, and Notre Dame refuses to make enough academic concessions to compete with powers such as the Alabama Crimson Tide.

But they remain strong enough to retain an iconic program's brand power and popularity.

Marcus Freeman has impressed gamblers and fans with his ability to attract top players. Now, Freeman must translate that talent into wins.
