Summary

Today's Rapid Fire topics include: * On a scale of 1 to 10...How surprised are you that Notre Dame stayed ahead of both Texas A&M and Indiana in both polls this week? * College Football Playoff projections out this week have Notre Dame as the No. 9 seed playing No. 8 Tennessee in the first round. The winner would get No. 1 Oregon in the first round. We have thoughts on that. * We hear Marcus Freeman's comments on guard Billy Schrauth returning for the Irish against Navy and discuss what it could mean going forward. * We hear and discuss Riley Leonard's comments on what's changed for the Irish quarterback during his current run of hot play. * After beating LSU Saturday night, Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko had this to say: “This is a real program. It’s not fake. It’s not a politician running this program, talking fast and BS-ing everybody. This is a real program and for all the recruits out there, this is a real place.” Was Elko talking about Brian Kelly, Jimbo Fisher or both of them? * One of the most insane endings to the Bears – Commanders game yesterday when Jayden Daniels 52-yard Hail Mary deflected into the hands of Noah Brown in the end zone with no time on the clock. What did you think about Bears DB Tyrique Stevenson...who was taunting the crowd in Washington during the play....and then ultimately tipped the ball to Brown? * When Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman ended Friday’s game one of the World Series with a grand slam...Fox announcer Joe Davis copied Vin Scully’s iconic “she is gone” call from game one of the 1988 series that Scully used for Kirk Gibson’s walk-off home run. Was Davis’ call a rip-off or appropriate sampling of Scully?

0:13.1	Rapid fire time.
0:13.9	We're here.
0:15.4	Scale of 1 to 10.
0:17.1	Your surprise level that Notre Dame stayed ahead of both Texas A&M and Indiana in both polls this week.
0:25.0	Like a four.
0:26.7	My surprise level wasn't that they stayed ahead of those two teams.
0:29.7	My surprise level is that they jumped four spots.
0:32.4	That was my surprise level.
0:34.2	The actual order of operations and things like that, I think, you know, Brian and I kind of
0:40.2	dug into it last night on the show and our kind of reaction to the AP poll and everything.
0:44.5	I was much more surprised that they jumped to eight after winning against Navy, and they actually
0:50.0	dropped a spot last week after their win. Like that was, you know what I mean? Like,
0:55.3	it was like, oh, well, maybe people are starting to come around that, you know, six games
0:59.8	removed from Northern Illinois that Notre Dame is actually probably a pretty good team.
1:05.3	It took them six weeks to get there, but I think people are starting to come around and maybe
1:09.8	that's what ended up happening and
1:11.8	Brian made a good point that I hadn't really thought of last week the AP voters thought that
1:18.2	Navy was a ranked team like they ranked them like that that's so it's like almost speaking out
1:23.5	of both sides of their mouth if they don't give Notre Dame credit for beating a ranked team that they ranked in the top 25. And so it's like, well, we kind of got to give them some credit now
