Irish plan to ground Navy running game
Posted by GameSetMatch on November 5th, 2009
Notre Dame linebacker Brian Smith cannot wait to play against Navy on Saturday.
And not just to test the No. 19 Irish’s run defense against the Midshipmen’s rushing attack.
The 6-foot-3, 240-pound junior injured his right knee in the first quarter against Navy last season on what he called an illegal cut block.
“They got the flag for it, but the 15 yards is not a good trade-off,” Smith said of the injury that kept him out of the final two games of 2008.
Personal vendettas aside, Smith and the Irish (6-2) will be challenged in the run game by the Midshipmen (6-3) at 2:30 p.m. Saturday at Notre Dame Stadium.
