00:03 And that's really what the focus is gonna be on the first part of the show is,

00:08 is about what's at stake for Notre Dame.

00:11 Because the concern Ryan is gonna be, you've watched the film,

00:15 you know they're not very good.

00:18 I've watched the film, I know they're not very good.

00:21 Their best offensive player hasn't played in what, like a month, right?

00:25 And he's not gonna be back for the game talking about their tight end.

00:28 And, but the Notre Dame players do as well, you know what I mean?

00:34 Like they watch the film as well, and it's gonna be a lot like Pitt and

00:38 Wake Forest is, who are you gonna be?

00:41 Like how locked are you gonna be?

00:42 This is not a team that has handled distractions very well,

00:46 if we're gonna be honest.

00:47 And what I mean by distractions is like midterms or

00:51 road games or getting out of their comfort zone of being at home.

00:55 We have to ask again, is that because they don't play well on the road or

00:59 is that because they don't play well against really good teams, right?

01:02 Well, this weekend's a chance for us to learn a little something about that.

01:05 And then you throw on the top of Thanksgiving being on top of it.

01:08 >> Sure. >> And you have to ask yourself,

01:10 again, who are they?

01:12 And that's what we're gonna find out about Notre Dame.

01:14 But it also, let's be real, Ryan.

01:16 The fact that Stanford beat Notre Dame last year

01:21 is why I think they have no chance to beat them this year.

01:25 Because you can be sure that the Notre Dame coaches are gonna be reminding this

01:28 football team that, hey guys, we overlooked this team last year at our plate.

01:35 And they weren't very good and they beat us.

01:39 And it wasn't just that they beat Notre Dame, they outplayed Notre Dame for

01:42 60 minutes.

01:44 It wasn't a fluky win.

01:45 Bye.
