In the Blink of an Eye

As the 2010 Notre Dame Football season is about to get underway, we must prepare ourselves for an all new viewing experience. The pro-style offense ND ran under Weis is out, and the spread offense perfected by Kelly is in.

What does this mean? It means hold on to your hats and keep your eyes on the action. Last season, the average scoring drive for Kelly's offense was 2:19. TWO MINUTES! It will be like watching the Weis 2-minute drill all game long!!

Head coach Brian Kelly and AD Jack Swarbrick recently sat down with NBC media personnel in order to adjust the man on the field in the orange glove. That's right, due to this up tempo pace, NBC will be shorting the TV timeouts, yet increasing in number.

In all my years as a student, the constant complaint at the game (outside of the lack of performance) was the TV timeouts really cutting into the flow and momentum of the game. Now, NBC will be adjusting to support ND's new offensive tactics.

So, don't plan a trip to the trough during a TV timeout, cause you never know when you are going to miss a TD - and TD's a plenty there will be.
