I.

I.B. Nation. Welcome back to another edition of the Irish Breakdown podcast.

And we're going to call this championship week kick off, Treb.

We are kicking off our coverage of the national championship game between the Ohio State.

Buckyes and your Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Guys, I, oh, man,

what a week, Trev, what a week. We're going to have a lot for people. We're going to go live

at least every day except possibly Sunday. We're going to be live, including next Monday.

A lot of stuff in store for y'all

this week. I'm excited about it. I know Trev is excited about it. We're sitting there chomping

at the bit. Just want to give you guys a quick rundown on what we're going to discuss this week.

And then today, so that way everybody knows we're going to be going live at 1 o'clock every day during the week, Monday to Friday.

Saturday will probably be 1 o'clock as well, but, you know, weekends are always a little bit different, so we'll let you guys know. Today, we're going to talk about, we're just going to

kind of kick off what this game means, right? What's at stake for Notre Dame and what this game

means in a lot of different ways? We'll dive into our first look at Ohio State.

We're going to talk also about the new portal pickups today. We're going to do a much deeper

dive into the portal players after the season is over, but we are going to give a little bit

of a breakdown of the guys that they got this past weekend, this past week, I should say.

And tomorrow our focus is going to be strictly on the offense,

Notre Dame defense against Ohio State offense.

We'll kind of preview the Ohio State offense, talk about, you know,

their players, their stats, where they rank.

We'll get into, you know, how they stack up against a nerd name defense.
