ND vs Pitt Highlights 2020
ND vs Pitt Highlights 2020

After ND thoroughly waxed Pitt, they dropped in the polls from 3 to 4 to Ohio State, after OSU only played and won 1 game.

ND was hitting on all cylinders with Northwestern transfer Ben Skowronek scoring on 2 long pass and runs. Freshman TE Michael Mayer had a great catch for a TD and on defense Isaiah Foskey blocked a punt for a TD.

ND totaled 434 offensive yards and Ian Book was 16/30 for 312 yds and 3 TD’s

Meanwhile both of our speedsters were sidelined with injuries.

Pitt had 3 points in the first half and that was it. ND’s defense was smothering.

Check out the highlights – best we’ve seen in a long time:

ND vs Pitt Highlights

Defense again comes up big and wins this game while Special Teams were anything but.

Pitt’s defense devised by HC Pat Narduzzi totally confused the ND offense especially Book. He was harassed and sacked all game until the final drive that won the game.

The ND running game was non existent and that was basically their DL beating our OL. That OL needs some changes and they have 2 weeks to fix it. Chip Long really has to upgrade his in game play calling.

Notre Dame’s game winning drive covered 80 yards and Book was 10 for 10 and cemented the win with a perfect 35 yard toss to Boykin for the TD. Book passed for 264 yds 2 TD’s and 2 Picks – he really stepped up in that last drive.

It’s a good thing ND has a bye week since the remaining games will not be easy – think Syracuse and USC.

Notre Dame vs Pitt Predictions

Pitt has been a thorn in ND’s side for like 50 years, no matter how bad they are they play out of their minds against ND.

This is a bad 3-3 team destroyed by Penn State and UCF. They did however knock off a pretty good Syracuse team last week 44-37.

They basically ran the ball down Cuse’s throat. Their QB Kenny Picket is a 61% passer for 880 yards, however he has 6 TD’s vs 5 Picks.

The ND plan here should be pretty simple. Shut down the run, get an early lead and cruise to an easy win.

Pitt is coached by Pat Narduzzi former DC at MSU under Mark Dantonio. This should be like playing MSU lite.

I look for ND to crush them.
