I.B.Nation. Welcome back to another episode of the Irish Breakdown podcast. Happy Wednesday.

It is July 23rd, which means a couple of things, Brian. One, we're now 31 days away from week zero.

College football is going to be on our televisions in a little over a month. And then in 39 days, Notre Dame kicks off their 2025 season against Miami. So the offseason's flying by.

This is my first offseason in this position, and it's going by a lot quicker than what I thought.

Brian was telling me back in February. He was like, look, man, I know it just feels like the national

championship happened yesterday. You're going to blink, and we're going to be gearing up prepping

for Notre Dame versus Miami. And here we are. So we're a little bit over a month away, but it is Wednesday. You guys know what that means. It's buy sell hold. We're going to get into that in a little bit here. But Brian, we got some stuff to talk about beforehand, man. I texted Trevor last night and I was like, dude, I'm about tired of this Big Ten

ACC nonsense.

So we've got to talk about this a little bit.

And obviously we've had Big Ten Media Day and ACC Media Days are kind of around the corner.

You've got the ACC coaches, you know, running off at the mouth.

You've got Big Ten coaches and the commissioner running off at the mouth.

And they're all taking shots at the SEC, which to a degree, I'm like, okay, I got to defend

the SEC here because some of this is nonsense. And then the other thing is like, but y'all are

getting some of your own medicine thrown back at you, which is just, it's kind of hilarious.

And it also is, I think, good.

I want to see these leagues more at each other's throats because the more they're at each

other's throats, the more they're not unified, taking the sport in a direction where those

two conferences are making all these just money-only decisions.

Hopefully, they can get a little bit of feciness going and continue to not like

each other and maybe that doesn't change because now Tony Petiti is basically trying to hold

the playoff expansion, expansion hostage, which I'm not against if they have to push that back
