You're listening to Irish Illustrated Insider.

It's Monday, November 30th.

I'm Tim Priestley with Tim O'Malley from Irish Illustrated.

And Pete Sampson from The Athletic.

We are reviewing Notre Dame's 3117 victory at North Carolina.

Looking ahead, now we'll probably won't look ahead to Syracuse until Thursday, but, you know,

basketball game.

Yeah, a different, you know, a much different game than I think a lot of us anticipate,

especially after it was 14 to 14 at the end of the first quarter, but both teams settled

in.

Give North Carolina credit for doing a really good job defensively.

But North Ames defense, unbelievable.

Allowing zero points over the last 48 minutes is just an unbelievable performance.

Another Clark Lee led performance by the defense. And then when the offense had to

get it together, a 97 and 89-yard touchdown drive to put it away. I was super impressed by

the defensive line because I think that, you know, Notre Dame playing at a slower tempo

to sort of like play defense by playing offense.

I thought that would probably happen.

I didn't think North Carolina was going to run the ball very well.

It was even worse than I thought.

But I just thought the way the defensive line dominated North Carolina's offensive line,

made them look just absolutely hapless.
