I think Fiu's summary is on the mark:

Quote:
It's not Notre Dame's fault, but Pitt, Michigan, Purdue and Tennessee weren't nearly as good as they were expected to be, and the two games against the really, really big boys, USC and Ohio State, were losses. As harsh as it might sound, Notre Dame might not have really accomplished anything quite yet. The person who'd agree with that more than anyone else is Weis.

This is a tremendously flawed team with average corners, a limited pass rush from the front four, and no developed depth anywhere meaning the machine might quickly grind to a halt if injuries hit at the skill positions. The secondary didn't get any faster in the off-season, and the overall athleticism and talent level, which was exposed in the Fiesta Bowl by Ohio State, is a year or two away from being up-to-snuff for a national title-caliber powerhouse. There's a whole boatload of talent on the way, but not all of the stars are in South Bend quite yet.
