Storylines to watch for during Texas A&M football-Notre Dame matchup

A&M defensive line has to take charge and pressure Leonard

Staying with the topic of the former Blue Devil quarterback, Leonard might struggle in week 1.

The offensive line has been a question for Notre Dame for quite some time.

Three sophomores and two freshmen will get the starting nod on the offensive line for the Irish. Not good news for head coach Marcus Freeman going into week 1 in one of the most hostile environments in the land.

Don't be surprised if we see Kyle Field getting rowdy after a false start. It will be a tough challenge for the youngsters going up against the crowd.

Freeman has downplayed his youngsters handling such havoc. With an experienced defensive line with Mike Elko as the head coach, against an inexperienced offensive line will lead to problems for the Irish.

This would've been a great game for the Irish to have offensive tackle Joe Alt, who's now playing the Los Angeles Chargers.
