While the 2021 Fiesta Bowl didn’t end the way Notre Dame wanted, there were positives to take away from the volatile performance.

The Fiesta Bowl was nothing short of a test for the Irish. It tested a defense, and more specifically a secondary, without Kyle Hamilton. It tested a Chris Tyree-led running back room.

Graduate student Avery Davis took a while to find the perfect fit for his skills on this Irish roster. It wasn’t his talent that was in question, it was how to use it. At Cedar Hill High School in Cedar Hill, Texas, in his senior year, Davis was undeniably a dual-threat quarterback. He threw for

The news got scary for Notre Dame before it got better. With defensive captains Kyle Hamilton, Myron Tagovailoa-Amosa and Drew White not dressed for their clash with Virginia, the Irish defense was severely depleted. Against a Cavaliers offense averaging 39 points a game, that was a major concern. But then UVA quarterback Brennan Armstrong, questionable

Notre Dame freshman wide receiver Lorenzo Styles has emerged as a mature and versatile playmaker for the Irish during his rookie season. Joining the ranks of Braden Lenzy, Kevin Austin, and Avery Davis in the position group–with Davis especially posting a strong start to the season–Styles was immediately thrown into the machinations of the Notre

The righting of the ship by Notre Dame’s offensive line and the reemergence of Kyren Williams are stories that have grabbed the headlines for the Irish the past couple of weeks, but there’s another offensive playmaker that people should be paying more attention to. Lorenzo Styles, the freshman wide receiver out of Pickerington, Ohio, is
