www.BLUEANDGOLD.com OCT. 7, 2019 27 Against Virginia, however, Notre Dame held the Cavaliers to just four yards on the ground. Of course, that total is aided by Notre Dame's eight sacks against Bryce Perkins but if you take away the lost sack yards, Virginia only gained 59 yards on the ground while averaging 2.3 yards per carry. The key was containing dual-threat quarterback Bryce Perkins, who led Virginia in rushing entering the game. "We just [played to] contain him inside the pocket," senior defensive end Khalid Kareem said. "Making sure that he doesn't have any run- ning lanes, collapsing the 'B gaps' and don't give him anywhere to run — that's what we did the whole game and got the 'W.'" Junior linebacker Drew White and fifth-year senior linebacker Asmar Bilal continue to solidify their roles in the middle of this Irish defense with a gutsy performance recording seven and five tackles, respectively. White even came up with a tackle for a loss on the first play of the game. The elevated play of both Bilal and White has taken what used to be a big question mark about this NOTRE DAME INDIVIDUAL STATISTICS Rushing Att. Gain Lost Net Avg. TD Long T.
