Who know which back-up quarterback will be the spark each week. The last few weeks, it’s been Drew Pyne. That might have been because Tyler Buchner was a bit dinged up.
What we saw in the first reps early this season saw the true freshman running all over the place, mixing in a solid pass. Well, the Buchner that we saw before his soft tissue injury is back. He looks like he belongs, even though he’s didn’t play his senior year due to COVID-19.
He again engineered a drive that gave Notre Dame the lead, 14-10, in the hostile road environment of Virginia Tech got a bit quieter as the Irish scored. Buchner to Williams isn’t just a hand-off play.
