While Notre Dame football has a 9-1 record with just two games left in the regular season, they have battled injuries all fall, which makes its current record much more impressive.
The Irish will face the Army Black Knights on Saturday evening, in what head coach [autotag]Marcus Freeman[/autotag] called the “toughest challenge to date.” Unfortunately, it looks like Notre Dame might not have star defensive tackle [autotag]Howard Cross III[/autotag] for the contest.
Freeman lists the senior as questionable for the game, after he sat out this past weekends win over Virginia. The good news is that [autotag]Donovan Hinish[/autotag] has filled in and played very well.
This is the kind of game where if Cross can get on the field, he needs to be out there. Even if he is limited to a certain amount of snaps, he’s a game-changer that will help Notre Dame. Hopefully Cross heals up during the week and we see him against Army.
