A lot of eye brows were raised and attention was put on sophomore Notre Dame running back [autotag]Audric Estime[/autotag] on Wednesday as he met the media and provided the next Fighting Irish opponent with some surefire bulletin board material.
Estime was asked about what he sees in BYU, who sits at 4-1 and ranked 16th in the latest USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll. Despite the solid start to the year and nationally ranking to go along with it, Estime isn’t fearful of what BYU brings to the table.
But was what Estime said worth the pushback some seem to want to give it?
You first have to listen to the actual audio before making a grand conclusion, so let’s go ahead and do that.

If you ask me (and you should if we’re being honest) it’s a 19-year old answering a question honestly and a pleasant change of pace for Notre Dame fans.
