Notre Dame Should Push The Tempo vs Pitt

Transcript

00:00 I kind of understand why they didn't want to go tempo against USC, especially when they

00:08 were able to jump out early to a lead because of the turnovers.

00:12 You're playing a team this weekend, however, who number one, your defense has a phenomenal

00:17 matchup against like phenomenal matchup against you should dominate that matchup.

00:22 So you should not.

00:23 And you're also playing a team this weekend, Ryan, that is going to want to shorten the

00:30 game.

00:32 And you need to find ways to extend the game.

00:34 In my opinion, you're going to want to try to limit possessions and keep it close.

00:39 So not only is it about everything you said is correct about getting some rhythm, getting

00:44 some momentum, building some confidence.

00:46 I think there are practical reasons.

00:47 Pitt likes to do a lot of different calls.

00:49 So you speed up their play calling process.

00:51 You get them a little bit more set with some tempo.

00:54 But I also think it's a perfect time to do it because you are playing an offense that

00:58 if for some reason that leads to a turnover, a couple quick, you know, I mean, if you go

01:02 tempo and don't get a first down, the other teams get on the field pretty quick.

01:06 You're coming off a buy should be rested.

01:07 You have a lot of depth on defense and you're playing an offense.

01:10 It's just not good.

01:11 This is the game to get that going, in my opinion, on top of the reasons of how it can

01:17 help the offense.

01:18 It's it works out and complements the defense as well because I mean.

01:21 Yeah.

01:22 Yeah.

01:23 Yeah.

01:24 Yeah.
