These guys are so convinced they are right about EVERYTHING. One guy was a low level D3 assistant and the other guy was a HS JV coach. This show opined that ND should move All American, Nagurski Award winning safety X Watts. back to WR. and Phil Jurkovec (BC & Pitt QB Wash out) should have been QB1 over Ian Book.
This is the best analysis you will find anywhere. These guys know how to break down film and give you the info. Love listening to them!!
They rundown Texas Tech. Texas Tech has a ranked win! ND zero while playing Navy and a poor win against Boston College. Hilarious.
Interesting what happened in 1900, but it’s the hack that ND gets a playoff spot while playing no one and losing.

If you’re looking for positive reinforcement and ultimate optimism about Irish football this is a great podcast with lots of new content and regular updates. If you want to hear honest opinions about what’s really going on and what would benefit the Notre Dame football team, other podcasts and other outlets are a better option. I certainly understand employees following the direction their supervisor gives in an effort for self and job preservation which is what this seems to have outside of Se... more
