Danielson was just talking about the level of defense in this game and said, "You know, Notre Dame's got a good defense out there too."



To be fair ND had no offense in the game and their D was on the field all night, so their D may have been pretty good.

Their defense being on the field too long had nothing to do with it. They were overmatched from the minute the ball was first snapped. Go back and watch the first Alabama drive of that game again. It was men versus boys.

Bama marched through the Notre Dame defense for long TD drives on the first three possessions of the game.

Notre Dame didn't lose a war of attrition, Alabama ran up and down the field on them immediately. They had no shot.

Could've been the case if their D had put up a fight early on and then wore out late...Bama scored TDs on long drives their first 3 possesions...
