SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) -Notre Dame receivers Golden Tate and Michael Floyd are friendly rivals again.
Tate took over the role as 19th-ranked Notre Dame’s top receiver when Floyd went down with a broken left collarbone against Michigan State six weeks ago. With Floyd returning Saturday against Navy (6-3), the receivers say the competition to be the No. 1 receiver is on again.
The pair say that’s a good thing because they push each other. Tate developed into a much more complete receiver with Floyd out.
Coach Charlie Weis says having Floyd back balances the offense and takes pressure off Tate. The Irish plan to ease Floyd back into the game plan.
