Stick with us through the opening minutes as the breaking news hit mid-show and Mike and Jess process the stunning development and what it means for Notre Dame and the sport at large.

Before diving into the rivalry news, the show opens with a breakdown of the College Football Playoff — and yes, there’s still plenty of frustration over the Irish being left out by the committee.

Then it’s on to the big story of the day: the end of the Notre Dame–USC rivalry… for now. Why is this happening? Who’s responsible? And who will Notre Dame schedule in USC’s place? Mike and Jess tackle all of it, including Notre Dame’s newly announced matchup with BYU.

The conversation also turns to Marcus Freeman and growing speculation about his future. Should Irish fans be concerned about potential NFL interest, including rumors tied to the New York Giants? Golic shares his perspective, while Jess explains why chaos has become the norm in modern college football.
