The RPO Reckoning. Notre Dames Offense Divides The Dynasty:

December 3, 2025


THE RPO RECKONING: NOTRE DAME’S OFFENSE DIVIDES THE DYNASTY ? Notre Dame’s RPO-driven offense is the talk of the league — explosive, efficient, and to many, downright infuriating. Some see brilliance. Others see cheese. But nobody can deny its impact. ? The Irish win, they score, and they force defenses into constant hesitation. And while the scheme looks simple on paper, its results continue to frustrate coaches across the dynasty. ? ? KMONT: “THE O IS HIS… WILL THE D BE YOURS?” Oregon’s legendary coach Kmont offered the most poetic take: “Notre Dame seems to be tricking all his opponents with two trades of his own. Either R or P. The O is his. Will the D be yours?” A compliment — and a challenge. ? ? OKLAHOMA’S SILKY JOHNSON: “CALL IT WHAT IT REALLY IS — CHEESE.” After a close loss, Oklahoma HC Silky Johnson didn’t sugarcoat it: “Running the same 2–3 plays all game isn’t respectable. Call it what it really is, cheese. Notre Dame will have to see us again — new rivalry started.” ? ? LSU’S HARCHER: “RPnOTRE DAME… OUR LITTLE BRO.” LSU coach Harcher, 2–0 against the Irish, held firm: “You know what you get when you play them — cheap offensive play calling. But you’ve got to adjust. LSU did it, and Notre Dame is our little bro.” ? ? NOTRE DAME RESPONDS ? With the noise reaching a peak, head coach Diehl fired back: “I’ve found a set of plays with multiple wrinkles to beat everything — Cover 2, Cover 3, Man, doesn’t matter. People didn’t get to see all my hot routes vs Oklahoma because of the stadium pulse, but I stayed patient and beat the number one team in the country. If you don’t like it, stop it. And funny enough, two years ago LSU ran three plays all season and made a chip — nobody complained then.” ? ? THE BOTTOM LINE ? Love it or hate it, Notre Dame’s offense is shaping the identity of the dynasty. It’s dominant, controversial, and unignorable. And if you don’t like it? The Irish already gave you the answer: Stop it.
