Irish Breakdown answers "We In or We Out" questions from listeners/subscribers on today's show! Some of today's topics include:
* We in/we out Notre Dame's chances of making it to the championship game are over 60% if they beat IU.
* Indiana will give up a season high rushing yards (Charlotte 137 yards)
* Big 12 Refs will be the best crew we’ve seen all year
* Jaiden Ausberry will lead the LBs in tackles for 3rd game in a row
* Mitchell Evans will be the leading receiver Friday night
* Notre Dame dominates the “middle 8”, scoring 17+ points to Indiana’s 7 or less
* Notre Dame has at least two 4th down stops (could be 4th and goal or other) against IU.
* Betting the over on a made-up sack betting line of 3.5 for the Irish.
* Notre Dame doubles up IU’s average rushing yards allowed of ~75 yards/game for 150 yards or more.
* In or out on all black uniforms vs UGA in the quarterfinals.
* Notre Dame stadium will be ROCKING for the majority of the game?
* The Irish WR corps accounts for 150 receiving yards
* A Jeremiyah Love hurdle.
* A Christian Gray INT.
* Irish start fast and set a tone up 14 in first quarter
* Irish down at half
* ND/IU Game covers the over
* The University intentionally trolled us on the black uniforms. Trotting out Freeman in a black hoodie is hilarious in retrospect
* ND defense have 3+ sacks on IU.
* ND has a blocked punt.
* ND turn over margin against IU is 3 to 1 in their favor.
* We In We Out: The ND D-line returns to form after its lackluster SC game and gets pressure on Kurtis Rourke allowing Al Golden to not have to bring extra rushers especially with Howard Cross back.
* We In We Out : Love and Jadarian Price have 180 plus yards combined and 3 Touchdowns accounted for between them.
* No less than 5 receivers touch the ball on Friday for Notre Dame (not counting RBs)
* The game will play out similar to the OSU IU game, with IU keeping it close in the first half before ND pulls ahead for a 2+ score win
* This will be the most underrated stadium atmosphere for the first round and IU will feel it
* After reading Riley Leonard’s letter, I bet $1,000 on ND to cover the spread. Will do the same thing in every play off game we play in this year. Am I drinking kool-aid or are you all in?
* Friday and Saturday’s CFP games will go chalk
* The largest margin of victory from highest to lowest: Notre Dame, Penn State, Texas, Ohio State
* Highest scoring game: Penn State/SMU
* Lowest scoring game: Ohio State/Tennessee
* This is the most important game ever played at Notre Dame Stadium. We in or we out?
* Ausberry, Drayk Bowen and Jaylen Sneed will make big plays Friday night
* Mitchell Evans and Eli Raridon will be the X-factor in the ND offense.
* Love and Price will be the difference
* The presence of a vocal and variably obnoxious IU contingent, together with the absence of cold-intolerant older fans, will arouse the presence and volume of the Notre Dame crowd to its highest level in recent memory. The stadium will actually shake.
