He then gets into Notre Dame’s blowout win over Navy and discusses what the addition of Sam Hartman does for the Irish’s ceiling this season. He also discusses how it’ll affect the matchups with their big-time opponents coming down the road: Ohio State, USC and Clemson. Finally, Klatt discusses the recent rulings by the NCAA to suspend LSU star DT Maason Smith for the Florida State game and to deny Colorado Offensive Lineman Tyler Brown’s waiver for immediate eligibility.
