Notre Dame football: Sam Hartman’s career vs. NC State

NC State has had Hartman’s number over the years.

No. 13 Notre Dame has steamrolled its way to 2-0 with dominating wins over both Navy and Tennessee State. The Irish combined to outscore those two 98-6, and Sam Hartman has been a big reason for the offensive success.

The tests for Hartman and Notre Dame are about to scale up in difficulty.  This week the Fighting Irish travel to NC State, a program that has been steadily solid for years.

It’s also a team that has given Hartman a fair share of fits. The Notre Dame signal caller made three starts against them while at Wake Forest, something we take a look at below.
