another edition of irish illustrated insider it's monday september 18th and noradame manhandled

well at least on the scoreboard and statistically central michigan over the weekend everybody's

thinking about nordam ohio State under the lights this weekend,

but to wrap things up with Central Michigan and go over some of the details. I'm Tim Prester

with Tim O'Malley from Irish Illustrated. Tim, we just met with Marcus Freeman, spoke a little bit

to Sam Hartman as well, which is uncommon on a Monday, but he was a little banged up after the

game, and so this was the first

opportunity we had to talk to him.

But look, Nordame, Central Michigan wasn't perfect, but at the end of the day, Nordame

Mount gained him by 310 yards and won by another 24 points, and they're hammering every

opponent they've played up to this point.

Yeah, I think people, if you watch that game back, you have a different view of it.

Watching it live, you definitely thought, well, there's a couple drives there where Notre Dame's

tackling isn't good on the first drive.

It looked like a crisp, it looked like a crisp power five drive coming down at Notre Dame for

their first touchdown, Central Michigan.

And then they kind of give one away at the end with, uh, you know, it's, it's something I want to ask golden about, although he'll, he won't like it. I don't think. I was surprised Notre Dame's up 217.
