Welcome back to Irish Illustrated Insider.

It is Tuesday, December 2nd, post-regular season finale at Stanford, and we will get to the game soon.

Join today by John Bryce of Football Scoop, Pete Sampson of the Athletic.

Guys, the number one story coming out of that game obviously happened in the first quarter.

A need to Jerobiah loves ribs, which, if bruised, will be painful and he'll need some help to play. If broken, it'll be an issue

during a playoff game for Jeremiah Love and the Fighting Irish. Let's start with Love and any recent

things we've heard there. Aside from, he did return to South Bend and have an official MRI. And I can speak to that later because I had an MRI last year after I broke my ribs. I was, yeah, I told the MRI was clean, bruised ribs, but no tears, fractures, et cetera. So that's what matters. That'll just hurt. That's, but you can shoot it up. Yeah. Yeah, I think that's think that's where we are with that right now.

And so it doesn't seem like that.

Look, Notre Dame needs to, I'm not saying he's going to play with Bruce Ribs in a non-playoff game.

But if form holds, Notre Dame is playing where we think they're going to be playing,

then Jeremiah Love will be on the field to take the first offensive snap.

Yeah, and look, again, we've seen this coaching staff,

the way it managed players through last year's playoff run

and the way it managed players throughout spring camp.

It's very tactical in giving these guys time to heal up,

especially the ones who have played a ton of ball.

And so Jeremiah Love's going to have four weeks between games as long as Notre Dame continues to be in position to make the college.

I think it's three weeks this year, though, J.B.

It's December 1st to December 18th.

Okay.

All right.

Three weeks. It's three. It is three 18th. Okay. All right. Three. It's three. It's three. It is three.
