IB Countdown To Kickoff - Notre Dame vs Central Michigan

Published: Sept. 16, 2023, 1 a.m.

Notre Dame and Central Michigan go head to head on Saturday at Notre Dame Stadium in Notre Dame's second home game of the season and Irish Breakdown has the preview. We start with the significance of last week's win over NC State and ND's 29-game ACC regular season winning streak, Sam Hartman's 2-minute drill prowess and Marcus Freeman's growth as a head coach in a short amount of time. We then turn to the first ever meeting with Jim McElwain's Central Michigan Chippewas and discuss what Notre Dame's plan at linebacker will be without captain JD Bertrand. We take a whiteboard look at what Notre Dame's offensive plan could look like and when some of the reserves could see the field.
