Yes, of course, but I would like to think that having things go so well, starting to see everything spiral and then being able to slam the door and get out with a big primetime victory in the desert will be helpful in the long run. Notre Dame dominated a respectable BYU team for most of the evening and it’s a gift that we can lament a win away from home for not quite being as clean as we’d like. Look at us, a month after losing at home to Marshall, getting back to our old ways. A great sign for the season that what we thought was going to be an autumn of simply trying to survive has the potential to be far more fruitful. That blowout we all want? Hopefully coming soon.
