28 SEPT. 17, 2018 BLUE & GOLD ILLUSTRATED "We were stout in keeping them off the board certainly," head coach Brian Kelly began. "I clearly do know this: we did some things in the red zone we haven't done before. I like what we did. "We added some things that had been part of our install that we'd been working on that I think are ef- fective and we're going to continue to get better at it." Kelly is pleased overall with the unit through two weeks and where the group is headed after surrender- ing just 16.5 points and 328.0 yards per game against the Wolverines and Cardinals. "How it's talked about on a day- to-day basis about putting together a championship defense, I think the te- nets are in place," Kelly said. "We've got to continue to recruit, we have to continue to get better, and we have to continue to work on some little things. "But we're playing better in the back end. We're contesting for the football at a high level and putting pressure on the quarterback. There's some things we got to get better at. We know what they are." ✦ NOTRE DAME INDIVIDUAL STATISTICS Rushing Att. Gain Lost Net Avg. TD Long Armstrong 13 76 10 66 5.1 1 42 T.
