Here's what Brian Kelly said of the matchup, pregame updates and a live thread from Saturday night in Tiger Stadium:
“The keys to success are pretty obvious: taking care of the football. We’ll have to have better balance offensively. Defensively, stopping the quarterback will be paramount… Probably as balanced of a team that we’re going to play this year, in terms of talent level across the board. There’s no weaknesses in my eyes.”
