Summary

Irish Breakdown answers questions submitted by subscribers about Notre Dame football and more on today's show. Some of today's questions include: * It is more likely that ND wins @ A&M by 10+ points than the game coming down to the final possession. In or Out? * In/Out: Turnovers will be the deciding factor in the low scoring game between A&M and Notre Dame with Notre Dame coming out on top. * Bonus In/Out Notre Dame’s defensive secondary will be the group that creates the most turnovers. * No one position group dominates the game in the opener, but all contribute to a more balanced and dominant performance than we’re used to seeing. We in or we out? * We have such a good special teams punt play with Rendell and the squad that Jesse covers it in his first whiteboard of the season (for fear of disappointing Vince). We in or we out?? * With the recently announced announcers (Chris Fowler and Kirk Herbstreit) for the opener, Irish fans should mute the coverage and sync the video coverage to the radio broadcast. We in or we out??? * Notre Dame home game bagpipes (courtesy of the Notre Dame Bagpipe Band) are pivotal in creating the quintessential ND game day atmosphere. We in, or we out???? * In/out: Fan emotions aside, it’s better for a team to alternate between elite QBs and program QBs with upside, because it leads to more long term positional stability at the most important position in the game. This is also said with the current transfer portal system in mind. * Freshman running backs (Aneyas Williams and Kedren Young) will combine for 3+ total touchdowns this year. We in or we out? * We In/We Out: The most important matchup on D for ND is the new nickel Jordan Clark vs A&M slot receiver, Moose Muhammad. He can be electric and Clark will have to play man coverage when Al Golden blitzes. Golden blitzes a lot! * In/Out: We trust Denbrock to make in game adjustments * A smaller, more athletic, LT, Anthonie Knapp is a better match up against A&M. In or Out? * In or out on Notre Dame scoring 600 points in the regular season?

0:00.0	As we continue with we in, we out questions.
0:16.9	Jesse, we've had a lot of good ones so far, I think, on this show.
0:20.4	We'll continue with even more from KMO 2111.
0:28.7	It is more likely that Notre Dame wins at A&M by 10 plus points
0:32.9	than the game coming down to the final possession,
0:36.0	in or out on that.
0:37.6	That's a good question.
0:41.6	I don't know, with the line, with the spread where it's at,
0:46.8	two really good defenses, you know, first game of the season on the road,
0:50.9	young offensive line.
0:52.7	I actually think it's more likely that this thing comes down to, you know,
0:56.6	the fourth corner kind of more final possession than it does Notre Dame blowing out a team
1:01.3	by 10 points or more.
1:04.5	Well, do you consider 10 points a blowout?
1:08.1	I mean, that would be like a, what, like at least a 13 point swing in terms of the spread.
1:14.9	I think that's pretty, pretty considerable.
1:17.9	Usually, you know, barring something crazy, the spread is usually, you know, in a ballpark.
1:25.4	And again, I don't think it's going to be a 13 point swing.
1:28.2	It's in a ballpark, but season openers are a different thing too, because there's so much
1:32.8	unknown, because even, you know, especially for college football, if you compare it to the NFL,
1:37.9	because even in the NFL, you do have preseason games and you've got more known commodities.
1:45.7	Whereas in college, you've got so much turnover.
