All right, Brian, and part two of today's show here in the Irish Breakdown podcast, brought to you by our friends over at Fanduil.

We're talking Notre Dame's offense, defense, and special teams, and we're going to be handing out grades.

0:32.8

We just recap the season as a whole, talking about games, broke it down by quarter.

0:37.3

What we're going to focus now is on this team as a whole, and we broke it down by quarter what we're going to

0:37.7

focus now is on this team as a whole and we're going to break it down offense defense special

0:41.9

teams and within that especially in offensive defense we're going to break it down in position

offense we're going quarterbacks running backs wide receivers tight ends offensive line then give overall picture and then on defense we're going to break it down on offense. We're going quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, tight ends, offensive line, then give overall picture. And then on defense, we're talking coaching, D-line linebackers, D-Bs, kind of lump together in a group, and then the overall as well. And then special teams, it's more of the higher arching.

Notre Dame just set a record for most points in school, most points per game in modern school
