All right, Brian, and part two of today's show here on the Irish Breakdown podcast brought to by our friends over at Fanduil.

We're going to be talking keys to victory for Notre Dame's offense in their senior day match up this Saturday afternoon with Syracuse.

Kickoff is at 3.30 p.m. inside a Notre Dame Stadium, final regular season home game for Notre Dame this year.

And right now, the Irish are currently favored by 35 and a half points by our friends over at Fandwell,

which is a pretty hefty margin.

But Notre Dame is the current winners of eight games in a row.

And unfortunately, the Syracuse Orange have lost six games in a row after the unfortunate

injury to quarterback Steve Angelly.

But like we do every week, we're diving into Keys to Victory here.

And we're going to start on the offensive side of the ball.

And Brian, you and I talked a lot putting this list together for both the offense and the defense.

And yes, Notre Dame has to respect every opponent.

And to a degree, we at Irish breakdown do talk about respecting every opponent that you play. But like we said

yesterday, folks, this isn't a scenario where if Notre Dame doesn't come out firing on all

cylinders, Syracuse could rip off an upset in South Bend. They're not. They're struggling right

now. Injuries have plagued them. They're starting a redshirt freshman or a freshman walk-on quarterback. Like it's, Fran Brown has struggled this year, and it's not just on him. They've overcame a lot. There have been some staff changes. But that being said, this is about, look, playoffs are right around the corner for this team. And there are some things that we have to see that fall in line with keys to victory and what we have to see with them moving forward.

They're going to be crucial in this one, Brian. This is an interesting matchup in South Bend

on Saturday.

It is, Trevor. I mean, this is interesting, not from the Notre Dame Syracuse matchup is

interesting. It's interesting from the standpoint of what is Notre Dame going to be?

Who are they going to be in this game?

What fuels them?
