YESSSSSSSSS

💀

Thanks bestie 🙏

@@AlphaBea01 Np 🫶🏼🫶🏼!

Me, too.

Frankly that's not saying much. Jason Garrett is awful as usual

I agree

Helen Keller is a better commentator than the Nepo baby

@@mcguire1262 Still better than Jac Collinsworth. Luckily I'll be going to the Central Michigan game in a few weeks so I won't have to hear Double Trouble Toil and Trouble for that game at least.

No it comes from the Irish brigade in the Civil War. The brigade chaplain was Fr. William Corby, CSC, the third president of Notre Dame.

@@22grenathere are many stories, and no one can prove the actual one

The name was actually used intermittently for our team before that, but driving the KKK out of South Bend solidified the moniker🍀👏

In a 1581 volume, musician Vincenzo Galilei, the father of the astronomer Galileo described the Irish as an "unconquered fierce and warlike people... ". So in otherwords they like a good fight.

Frank Fehr, who played in the very first game against Michigan in 1887, said during a 1957 interview that when ND played Northwestern in Evanston in 1889, Wildcat fans started chanting, "Kill those Irish! Kill those fighting Irish!" even though they only had a few Irish players.

AFAIK, Jac Collinsworth will be back for the Tennessee State game. I know, sad. 😢😢

@@RandyDubinNope Jac is still sick so Paul Bermeister will be filling in.

I think he meant the mayor of dublin.We usually give out hurley sticks rather than shillelaghs ,but thats a rugby and soccer stadium so the shillelagh was a better choice.There is fierce competition between the sports in ireland

They make sure there's tickets for all the Americans, they don't release a lot of tickets to the locals because it wouldn't be fair for all those Americans travelling to miss out on tickets

@@maidenaholic Thats as it should be however i wonder if croke park wasn't better choice for this event other college games AVIVA is ok ,but notre dame has such a big draw.The last time notre dame came they could have sold out AVIVA twice

@gallowglass2630 yeah croke Park would be better because there where people looking for tickets still. Croke Park holds nearly 90,000 people. Enough for the locals and Americans to go

​@@maidenaholicProblem with that is last game in Croker 37,000 only turned up this was before this Ireland weekend took off, 37,000 in an 84,000 stadium not a good look

@@johncahalane7327 Yes but i think Notre dame has a phenonemal draw and they would attract attract north of 60 000.Other games AVIVA is ideal

because it does not belong to them

correct - we didn't have the music rights!

Exactly what ND does, 4 teams we face every year, standford, usc, purdue and more good teams, every school have rivalry. So be quiet

They're saying it's a safety issue. Shorter games are safer. I don't see it , and I don't think anyone else does for that matter.

Same here. It's all a political act. They had to shorten the game to make more room for their ads. Never trust the white collar brass that runs this sport...it's all about $$.

Takes away a lot of thrill in close games. Think this was a big mistake.

Exactly

⁠@@davidsolomon7966 Does that rule increase the actual ball in play time for a football game which I think is about 11 minutes or so on average I’m Not sure but shorten the gap between yes ? It’s interesting conversation in other sports in terms of ball in play time . I missed this game completely as there is a lot of big Rugby games being played right now just before the World Cup starts next week and South Africa absolutely pancaked New Zealand in a game where there was 35 mins of actual ball in play in an 80 minute game and some NZ experts were of the opinion that the amount of time it wasn’t in play helped the South Africans beat up physically their own boys If the Irish ☘️ played an SEC team for instance would not a longer ball in play help them in a physical match up sense ???
