Now that the 2022 college football season is over, it’s a great time for reflection.
Notre Dame football was a mystery for most of the year. It had an ongoing struggle for consistency as it navigated the path toward the Irish’s new identity. It wasn’t easy, and there are varying opinions on how it went.
