Breaking Down The First Half Of The Notre Dame 2022 Schedule

In our offseason analysis of the Irish squad we break down the schedule by splitting it into four quarters. That means each section is broken into three games each. On our Irish Breakdown podcast channel we broke down the first two quarters. Quarter one is Ohio State, Marshall and California and quarter two is North Carolina, BYU and Stanford.
