Hi, B Nation, welcome back to another edition of the Irish Breakdown podcast.

And y'all, it is Monday, August 26th, and it's game week.

It's game week. It is finally here. This was such a weird summer. You know, it's kind of like the

summer just took forever to go by initially. We had all types of stuff going on. And then we get

into this last week,

this last couple weeks, and it just flew by. And now we are here. It is game week. We are now

five days away, really so Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, five days away

from Notre Dame taking on Texas A&M and a season opener with a lot on the line.

Going to lay out this week's schedule for you guys. We're going to go, we're going to do a Monday

mailbag this week. During the season, my expectation is that as we kind of get into

normal game weeks beyond this, that we are going to do mailbags

on Friday. But with my travel schedule this week heading down to Texas, you know, flying down to

cover the game, it's going to be hard to do a full mailbag. I would have to cut it short. So I'm

going to do a different type of what to expect and what to look for type of show on Friday.

So we're going to move the mailbag to Monday.

Tomorrow Tuesday, we will do our Texas A&M preview.

I'll be joined by Trevor Trowbridge.

We're going to dive into Texas A&M and tell you guys everything you need to know about the

Aggies and what's at stake in this game and, you know, what Notre Dame

has to prove and all that good stuff about this game. Matchups to watch for. We'll do our stats

breakdown, all that kind of fun stuff. Wednesday, I'm going to do a midweek rundown. That's going to be

our normal. That's going to be our normal Tuesday will be the breakdown of the opponent.
