Did anyone remember that Brandon Joseph played for Notre Dame before Saturday?
The transfer from Northwestern might have slipped through the cracks for some Irish fans.
However, he reminded everyone he exists in a big way on the first play from scrimmage against Syracuse.
Garrett Shrader surely will be asking himself how he didn’t see Joseph,
who gave the Irish their first defensive touchdown of the season:
It’s worth noting that since this happened on the first play from scrimmage,
it won’t mean anything if the Irish don’t play up to that level for the rest of the game.
and anyone who doesn’t treat them like that is in for a rude awakening.
With them also playing at home, the environment won’t be very forgiving either. The Irish surely are aware of that.
Still, that was an exciting way to begin things, and here’s how Twitter reacted to Joseph’s big play:
