In the NFL they have this thing called the salary cap, unlike CFB where if you have a large alumni base of wealthy donors you can fund the team you want, rather than the team that you draft and pay from that limited cap.

The chicken or egg discussion. The ND corners (best and likely top 15 corner is injured) are very good cover corners. OSU has elite WR's so they may not hold up. But the CBs of ND have developed. Does Golden get the credit or the DB coach or both?

CB's are also only as good as the pressure the DL can create. Can ND get pressure on Howard and force quick or bad throws? As a fan, ND has not lost when they won the turnover battle. The ND will be severely tested, they need to figure a way to bend and not break and keep everything in front of them and then get more aggressive once OSU is in the redzone. OSU seems to be in a zone offensively and defensively so major favorites.

Riley Leonard will attempt to do his best Allen impersonation, if OSU shuts down his running and the ND running game, he won't beat them in the air.

I am hoping for a great game, I love ND, but I also like Ohio State.
