Hi, Brian, and part three today show here on the Irish Breakdown podcast, brought to you by Fandul.

We're going to be talking the keys to victory for Notre Dame's defense.

Now, this is the side of the ball that everybody's been talking about, rightfully so,

and there's things that they're going to have to do in this matchup to help Notre Dame's offense out and to walk away roughly Saturday around 3.34 p.m.

with a victory. Gosh, I hope actually not 4 p.m. our time. But hopefully they do the things that they need to come away with the victory.

And when we start diving into Keys to Victory, Brian, where we start out, it kind of goes back to the team keys to victory.

About being a more physical

team and being the aggressor. This defense has to be aggressive with everything they do this weekend.

Yeah, it's got to, I mean, it has to be the foundation of what you're doing in this game.

And it's similar to last week where we had the whole change everything is game is, is key number one.

I'm not going to go into a rant like I did last week.

But you just can't keep doing what you're doing, but just make this little adjustment, make that little adjustment.

That's just, that's not going to do it.

It has to be, hey, what we did isn't working,

so we got to do something different. That, that's flat out what it has to be, has to be that.

And if it's not that, then this team is going to, this team is going to struggle to stop.

It, to stop Arkansas. So they're going to have to, to struggle to stop it to stop Arkansas so they're going to have to to do better so it come out be aggressive be downhill it mean even something as simple as like their downhill run

game it's not super complicated you know isos wraps counters you know like that. They'll run a toss. But if your linebackers are going to be sitting there waiting on those guys to get to them, they're going to get run over. And not because they're not good players, but it's just sheer physics. These are 230, 240-pound backs. Your quarterback is tall and skinny, but he's, what's he listed at?

He's listed like 220 something. Isn't he, Trailer? I think on their roster. Tailing Green? Yeah. What's he listed? He's 235. Okay. Yeah, there you go. It was always really skinny, but he's got some weight to him. And so you're going to have to be prepared to handle that. And it, you know, their offensive lines, big and physical.

If you're, if you're asking Donovan Hein And it, you know, their offensive lines, big and physical.

If you're, if you're asking Donovan Heinz should just kind of take hits. And if you're

asking Jason Onye to just take hits, they're going to get driven off the ball. And that's not on
