I.B.Nation. Welcome back to another episode of the Irish Breakdown podcast brought to you by

Fanduel. Happy Wednesday, everybody. We are going to be diving into the matchups that matter today

for the Notre Dame versus NC State game happening this Saturday inside of Notre Dame Stadium.

3.30 p.m. kickoff in the dreaded peacock only game. I know that's been a hot topic of a discussion.

But before we dive into things today, Brian, I know we have an announcement coming.

Just talking about some format changes.

Yeah. So Trev and I were talking today a lot about the show, the makeup of the show and kind of, you know,

how we do things and what we're doing and stuff

like that. And I don't, I didn't love sort of the, the layout that we had gone with that I

chose for this year. I didn't, I didn't love it. I don't want to put that like we like Trevor was

because we're going to talk more about that, whether Notre Dame is part of that or not.

But we are going to kind of change the format of what we do.

So instead of on Wednesday taking like this deep dive into the opponent and then talking about some matchups, we're going to spend a little bit more time on Tuesday doing a little bit more into the opponent. And then Wednesday, we're going to start off with really breaking down the matchups to watch. Like when you're watching this game, these are the matchups that we think are going to have the biggest impact. So it's going to be a Notre Dame standpoint. And then specific to the

opponent, we'll do one for offense, do one for defense. And then we're going to move our keys to

victory to the beginning of or to the second part of this show. So today we're going to do our keys to victory.

And then tomorrow on Thursday, and this will be this week and then in future weeks,

we're going to have like a different segment at the beginning.

Or we may go key, tomorrow we're going to go keys to victory first.

Or excuse me, game predictions and game record predictions first and tomorrow we're

going to have a long segment after that previewing this weekend of college football because

there's just so many great games and and we'll talk first about games at impact Notre Dame and then
