Irish Illustrated's Tim Prister and Tim O'Malley are joined by FootballScoop's national college football writer and Irish Illustrated Contributor John Brice, as they react to what they heard during the September 23 press conferences with Notre Dame Head Football Coach Marcus Freeman following Notre Dame's victory over Miami OH. The crew also began to preview Notre Dame's upcoming game with Louisville.

It wasn't pretty. The home crowd booed their top-25 team at times as the No. 17 Fighting Irish squad got off to a sluggish start. But Notre Dame (3-1) got enough done to fend off Miami-OH (0-3), winning 28-3 after trailing early. The game had its highs--QB Riley Leonard threw a 38-yard touchdown pass and added a 50-yard touchdown rush on the ground-- and it had its lows in the form of a muffed punt by WR Jordan Faison. But, the Irish defense was able to force two turnovers and held veteran QB Brett Gabbert to 119 yards on 14/35 passing. After the game, Irish Illustrated's Tim Prister and Tim O'Malley were joined by Irish Illustrated Contributor John Brice of Football Scoop as they reviewed Notre Dame's 28-3 victory over Miami-Ohio and previewed Notre Dame's season-defining game against Louisville.

Irish Illustrated's Tim Prister and Drew Mentock are joined by John Brice of Football Scoop and Irish Illustrated as the crew goes live from ESQ Clothing in downtown Chicago. The crew took questions from the Notre Dame Club of Chicago and offered their thoughts on the upcoming Miami University game.

Irish Illustrated Insider offers its final post-mortem after last weekend’s home loss to Northern Illinois. It also takes a deep dive into the problems the Boilermakers might present during Notre Dame’s first visit to West Lafayette since 2013.

Irish Illustrated Insider delves into the aftermath of Northern Illinois' seismic triumph in South Bend. What went wrong? (Other than the obvious.) What could change? And how will the program rebound from this latest unexpected upset?

Irish Illustrated's Tim Prister and Tim O'Malley are joined by FootballScoop's national college football writer and Irish Illustrated Contributor John Brice, as they react to what they heard during the September 9 press conferences with Notre Dame Head Football Coach Marcus Freeman following Notre Dame's disastrous loss to NIU.

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish were upset by NIU 16-14 in Game 2. Join Tim O'Malley, Tim Prister, and John Brice as they break down why the Irish lost and what it means for the season moving forward.

The Fighting Irish are 1-0 while future scholarship Notre Dame players venture into their junior (2026 class) and senior (2025 class) varsity seasons.  In our latest edition of Tracking the Trail, Irish Illustrated discussed the fruits of Marcus Freeman's labor showing themselves in Notre Dame's season opener versus Texas A&M. Several of the most touted members of Coach Freeman's first few recruiting classes not only earned starting roles as underclassmen, but they also made significant plays on Saturday night.  That's where Irish Illustrated started in this week's recruiting podcast. It was followed by a discussion of Notre Dame's commits and how they fared in recent high school action, who we're looking to watch this weekend, and a popular 2026 recruit who is standing out in a big way.
