IB Nation Sports Talk: Stats We Need To See From Notre Dame In 2023
Today's show starts with a discussing on what kind of statistical markers we need to see from Notre Dame this season if the Irish are going to be in the College Football Playoff. From offensive and defensive passing and rushing yards to turnovers, sacks and red zone defense. We give our takes on where the Irish need to be this fall.
We have more to discuss in Rapid Fire as well. The list of topics is below.
Rapid Fire starts with which duo we are more confident in heading into the season Jordan Botelho and Junior Tuihalamaka for Isaiah Foskey at Vyper defensive end, Mitchell Evans and Holden Staes for Michael Mayer at tight end or Andrew Kristofic and Billy Schrauth for Jarrett Patterson and Josh Lugg at guard? Other topics include:
* Is the Blue-Gold spring game format a good one or is there something different we would want to see?
* Fill-in the blank...It’s BLANK that NBC’s first Big Ten Saturday Night prime time game will be Penn State vs West Virginia on Sept. 2.
* We discuss the difference in play by play announcers Notre Dame football radio announcer Paul Burmeister, who also called a USFL game for NBC on Sunday, and current Notre Dame/NBC TV announcer Jac Collinsworth.
* Fill-in the blank...It’s BLANK that the Chicago Bears are moving forward with breaking ground on what will be a $5 Billion dollar project to build their new domed stadium in the Arlington Park suburbs.
* There’s a growing recent trend in Major League Baseball of players celebrating home runs. Fernando Tatis Jr put on a sombrero and was dancing after homering off of Clayton Kershaw this weekend. A lot of the old guard say the antics are too much. Where do you stand on home run celebrations?
* The return of Willson Contreras to Wrigley Field with the Cardinals this week.
