monday's edition of irish illustrated insider it is monday september 25th i'm tim prester

with tim o'm elli from irish illustrated and we are here to talk about segment one basically

talk about what marcus fre Freeman said in today's morning press

conference and we're pushing off all the pretty much all the stuff from the game we're

going to address all the topics from Nordheim 1714 loss to Ohio State but most of those

will be in segment two I think it's important that that rather than go over all that again and then go

dive into the questions in segment two. We're going to talk about what Marcus Freeman had to say today.

And I know a lot of people are saying there's no excuse for what happened. And you're absolutely

right. There is no excuse for two plays being run with Notre Dame having 10 defenders on the field.

And I don't know of anybody at Notre Dame that is making an excuse for that, least of which Marcus

Freeman, who took full responsibility for what happened. Yeah, to be clear, we're pushing it off because

all the questions are about that. So that's why we're pushing it into segment two. Marcus Freeman today, the number one question, of course, in everybody's mind.

And it was a follow-up question. When did you know there were 10 players?

If you were somehow like a Mars and don't know that Notre Dame had 10 players on the field for the last two plays,

there was a follow-up question. When did you know? They did not know for the penultimate play, the incomplete pass, where Ohio State rolled right

and threw incomplete.

I am going to guess Ohio State did not know because they would have checked to a run left
