| 0:00.0 | Hello, welcome to the MMQB NFL podcast. |
| 0:08.9 | Connor here, Albert Brear there. |
| 0:11.2 | And before we get into a big week end of NFL football, everyone's kind of had their college football as broken moment. And meanwhile, like, |
| 0:23.1 | I'm sitting over here on the side and Notre Dame makes it to the national championship in the |
| 0:28.1 | first year of the playoffs with NIL. And I'm like, yeah, it's actually working out pretty good for me. |
| 0:32.4 | So I'm not going to complain. Now I'm going to complain because we got kicked out of the |
| 0:36.9 | playoffs. It was absolute |
| 0:38.7 | bullshit. And then what I think was actually worse was our coach taking the ball and |
| 0:45.6 | running home and saying that he's not going to play in a bowl game. And I disagree with that too. |
| 0:51.2 | I think the, and a couple of schools now have piggybacked off of their decision and have decided |
| 0:57.0 | not to play bowl games. |
| 0:58.0 | Does anybody get to think of Pop-Tarts, Albert? Like, no one cares about Pop-Tarts, what's going on? I love the Pop-Tarts Bowl. I'm going to go on the record and saying that. I, I love a bowl game that can make fun of itself and has self-awareness in the Pop-Tarts bowl. |

| 1:13.4 | Yeah. I mean, the, the, the, I love a bowl game that can make fun of itself and has self-awareness and the Pop-Tarts bowl. |
| 1:11.2 | Yeah, like Duke's Mayo Bowl. Come on. Yeah. I mean, the Pop-Tarts Bowl, the Duke's Mayo Bowl is in that category, too, where it's just, it is, the self-awareness is spilling over, right? And sometimes it's like a vat of mayo falling on somebody. But, yeah, I mean, I, I, like, look, like, I think that the, like, for Notre Dame, |
| 1:34.1 | here is like the crucial thing. |
| 1:36.4 | Like, you are walking away from a month of practice and development that all these other |
| 1:43.8 | teams are going to get. |
| 1:45.7 | And so that means not only do all of your players who are coming back for next year, |
| 1:51.5 | because I mean, I would assume like Jeremiah Love and maybe a couple other guys opt out of the bowl game, right, like for the draft, |
| 1:59.0 | even if you do accept a bowl invitation. |
| 2:02.8 | So you're getting next year's team ready. |
