This week in Notre Dame talk
The shows spent the week debating where Notre Dame really stands after their loss to BYU. Some hosts think the AP poll has them too high given the head-to-head result, while others believe their talent and potential matchup against Miami still make them a playoff contender. There's also concern about whether their defense can hold up against quality offenses down the stretch.
