For this week's game preview we interviewed a friend of mine, Matt Kane, who is by far one of the biggest Notre Dame fans in the city of Seattle....
On the Husky Side:
-Will the new found running game with Terrence Dailey, open up the passing game? Ronnie Fouch has shown himself capable of connecting with his receivers consistently on long passes. Notre Dame's defense may be tougher than Oregon State's so it will be interesting to see whether the Huskies will score more than one touchdown in this game.
-What am I scared of? Jimmy Clausen completely carving up a sad Husky secondary. Clausen could pass for more than 4 touchdowns in this game against a soft Husky secondary. The Husky cornerbacks and safeties so far have failed to provide any challenge to opposing receivers and quarterbacks.
-Now if the Husky defensive line plays anywhere close to average, then they'll be able to capitalize on an Irish rushing offense who is 108th in the country. Thus, the Husky secondary should receive some help with more of the defensive focus being on Jimmy Clausen.
-This game will be the usual blowout. Just think about where these two teams would be if Notre Dame hadn't fired Willingham..........
Prediction:
Notre Dame-33 Washington-10
