It's hour two of Budweiser's weekday sports beat with Irish Breakdown.com along with Jesse Stiers.

I am Sean Steyers as we roll into the second hour.

That can only mean one thing, Jesse, and one thing only.

Whiteboard.

Talk a little swamp butt on the whiteboard.red wants to know if you can bring out the

whiteboard to break down the swamp butt i don't think anyone wants that you're not you're out on

that i'm out on that one okay all right i am i am in on today's rapid fire though okay there's a lot

of good stuff in here.

I hope we can put our mouths to all of it.

I think we'll be able to get to it.

By the way, we were talking about the weather and the heat. Man, thanks for backing me up, Fred.

Let's talk about the heat.

Fred says 88 in Miami, 63% humidity right now.

South Bend 85 degrees, 57% humidity. Not a lot of difference is there.

I'm just trying to say once you get hot, it's hot. You know, like it's like if you were in a burning fire, it's still hot no matter where you are in that fire.

Yes, exactly. The only time I think it gets a little bit hotter is when you start playing on a turf field because of the heat that radiates off of that tar rubber on the bottom of the field. Right. But I believe that Miami Stadium is a grass field. It is. Yeah. And Notre Dame has been practicing on the grass fields. So it's actually going to feel a bit cooler. And a lot of people have pointed out, too, it's a 730 kickoff, right? Look, this is all the same stuff we were talking about last year. I think any oxygen. But people love to bring it up. I know. I think any oxygen we give it is too much oxygen it's it's a non-story

last year it's a non-story this year news check the box though news flash it's august 1st it's still

going to be hot no matter where you are in the continental United States.

So everyone's going to be playing with some heat those first few weeks of the season.

That's how it goes every year.

The AP preseason top 25 was released today.

Notre Dame checks in at number six in the poll.
