* Fill-in the blank...It’s BLANK that Drayk Bowen will not play baseball for the Irish this season and will instead focus solely on playing linebacker.
* Fill-in the blank…ESPN has a bracket projection for next year’s College Football Playoff field. They have No. 7 Notre Dame hosting No. 10 LSU. It would be BLANK if that happens.
* ESPN did a list of the top 100 college football players of the 2024 season. Five Notre Dame players were on the list. We take a look and Jesse Stires tries to guess which players matchup with the rankings on the list.
* Notre Dame’s 2025 schedule is complete after the ACC announced that the Irish will visit Stanford to close the regular season next November. Stanford will be one of six ACC teams the Irish play next fall. You good with that?
* Thoughts on how the schedule lays out and where the bye weeks are placed.
* Do you feel any differently about Ryan Day after he won his first championship?
* What's one early Super Bowl prop bet you like the most?
