Notre Dame kicks off the 2025 season with a tough road test against the Miami Hurricanes. It's a big test for the Irish, who haven't beaten Miami on the road since 1977. I joined the guys at Crain & Company to preview this matchup, and of course plenty of other topics came up.

You can watch the full video here:

*** The show starts with some thoughts about the importance of the game for Notre Dame, who has to prove it can beat the Hurricanes on the road. It's also reigniting what was once a massive rivalry.

*** Before going into more Miami vs Notre Dame topics we spent some time talking about the potential of Notre Dame playing Michigan and I gave my thoughts on the future of Notre Dame vs USC.

*** Jumping back into the Miami vs. Notre Dame breakdown we discussed the impact Carson Beck could have on the Hurricanes. We discuss the need for Notre Dame to establish its identity early in the season as Miami looks to overhaul its defense. We discussed the Notre Dame receivers, how Notre Dame might go after Miami early and much, much more.
