Podcast: Notre Dame Just Keeps Winning Much to the Dismay of Many Who Predicted a Wisconsin Win
Notre Dame took care of business again this weekend with a 41-13 beatdown of Wisconsin that wasn’t always pretty but got the job done on the road against a top-25 team. The Irish now sit at 4-0 even though many in the media picked Wisconsin to win the game and Vegas had the Badgers as 6.5 favorites.
- Cam Hart’s huge day
- Is Wisconsin forcing the bit with Graham Mertz just because he was highly rated?
- Concerns on the offensive side of the ball rear their ugly heads
- What to make of the quarterback position for Notre Dame
- The Freeman Factor starting to show as the season progresses
- Who is to blame for all of the sacks?
- Brian Kelly’s big accomplishment and well earned penalty
That and Frank tries a new 10.2% ABV stout all for the sake of the pod.

A zen question to ponder:
Which is better: To go through an entire season of coin-flipping style success, then rewarded with a bonus game against competition that exposes and completely humiliates you? Following which, you try repeating that same strategy again next year ?
OR…..
Benchmark where your program really IS right now relative to the very best, identify and make changes where needed, devise both immediate- and longer-term plans to improve and achieve competitve excellence, and put in the effort and time it takes in order to get there…even if that requires a transition period of short-term under-achievement?
Pick the two teams ND beats in the post-season for this year’s national championship.
(Must be 18 or over and certifiable lunatic to enter).
