Tim O'Malley with Tim Prester for I-Witch Illustrated outside Sun Bowl Stadium for today's 90th annual Sun Bowl between Oregon State and Notre Dame and Prester just before we started filming here.

0:18.6

He said, why is the line still dropping? Because we both think that Notre Dame is best prepared for this game despite all opt-outs on both sides it's down to

0:25.4

five and a half it did start at 10 and a half we both see a low-scoring game especially for Oregon State but

0:31.0

what it was one thing that Notre Dame could be vulnerable for defensively and it is definitely not at
