Episode Details

In this best of the week segment, we look back at the discussion the Irish Breakdown team had discussing the 2026 Notre Dame schedule that features plenty of familiar faces, with half the slate made up of rivals and longtime opponents, creating a challenging but manageable path. The discussion examines whether the offense or defense will face the tougher tests, which teams improved the most through the transfer portal, and whether concerns about the schedule's depth beyond the top contenders are justified.
