Could Mike Denbrock go with an old school offense to beat Texas A&M?

Notre Dame Offensive Coordinator Mike Denbrock talks to players at Notre Dame spring football practice Thursday, March 7, 2024, at the Irish Athletics Center in South Bend.

Many believe that Texas A&M’s strength is on the defensive line, but that won’t shy Notre Dame football away from testing them.

The Irish offense has been expected to take another step forward with the hire of offensive coordinator [autotag]Mike Denbrock[/autotag], as he returns to South Bend with a more impressive resume than when he left.

His offense at LSU was explosive, one that led the nation in scoring and produced a Heisman Trophy winner last season, but could we see something completely different on Saturday night?

On3’s J.D. Pickell is suggesting that Notre Dame go old school to beat the Aggies by running a triple-option.

While many call this now a RPO, run-pass-option, Pickell believes that quarterback [autotag]Riley Leonard[/autotag]’s running ability could be the x-factor in this game. He postulates that the Irish could put A&M in a position to have to make difficult choices on who to cover with this style.

If Notre Dame’s offense is this dynamic, it could mean very good things for the Irish this weekend.
