That competitive side that he brings is tremendous and now I don't have to listen to it as a competitor.

I don't have to listen to it as an opponent. I don't have to chirp back at him. I get this important.

If he's chirp, that means are scoring points, so I love it.

Hello and welcome to always college football.

I'm Greg Baccioroy.

It is March 11th, and we appreciate you coming to us from wherever it is you're coming to us from.

Well that's on the Spotify or Apple Podcast platforms. It's awesome.

If you're here with us via the ESPN YouTube channel that's terrific as well.

Along with me as always, Mark Kubiak, Jack Foster, and Jake Garcia.

I laid out a week ago what the scheduling model should look like in college football

and how we should take good verse good and create a non-conference celebratory kickoff and I think we're going to put that into practice today.

So I explained exactly how it should look and if you missed it go back and check out the show from last week.

You can take a peek, talk a little bit about how we should do our non-conference

scheduling and then today I'm going to lay out exactly what week one would look like in the

event in which we put that scheduling practice into the reality of our

scheduling model.

We also are going to be joined by Marcus Freeman, who's the head coach at Notre Dame.

They have a great week one game against Texas

A&M I might add but they're in a great spot to potentially secure a playoff

birth here in year three under coach Freeman so we look forward to our visit with him.

So without much further ado let's dive in he's the head coach of Notre Dame.

It's Marcus Freeman.
