While the stars aren't fully aligned like Michigan this time last year...it certainly appears that ND is in a position to make a run. Yes, questions on o-line, and perimeter, but if the bowl performance is an indication of potential, I like our chances. Defense should be loaded which usually bodes well early in the season. Give Reiley and the offense time to gel along with an expanded playoff, and the scenario to make a serious run is there. At least from my homer perspective
