Irish Breakdown

Today's Rapid Fire topics include:

* We start by making our predictions on what this week's second College Football Playoff rankings will look like.

* On a scale of 1 to 10...After Miami’s loss to Georgia Tech...Rate the ACC’s chances to get two playoff bids.

* We hear and discuss Marcus Freeman's thoughts on if he would like to have more home night games.

* Fill-in the blank...Notre Dame’s offensive performance against Florida State was BLANK.

* Utah athletic director Mark Harland was not happy after his team’s loss to BYU Saturday night. He was ticked off about BYU being called for pass interference, which negated a sack by Utah that would have effectively ended the game with them upsetting their rival. We share our thoughts.

Irish Breakdown has comments from Notre Dame head coach Marcus Freeman on today's show. He discusses the value of young players getting game experience in blowouts like Saturday's win over Florida State, keeping the pedal down and winning the second half even when the starters are out of the game and more (and we discuss how all this ties into comments from NBC analyst Todd Blackledge, who questioned the Irish throwing the ball with reserves in the game). We also have comments from Freeman on former Irish player Chris Tyree returning with Virginia this week and more.

Today's Rapid Fire topics include:

* When you factor in Notre Dame’s playoff hopes this season, would you rather Florida State be 8-1 or 1-8 coming into this game?

* Notre Dame’s coming out of its second bye week of the season. It’s the second year the Irish have had two byes. Do you Buy or Sell two-bye week seasons?

* On a scale of 1 to 10...What’s your confidence that Notre Dame scores more than 30 points in each of its four remaining games?

* Over/Under...45 total points Notre Dame’s defense will allow in the last four games of the regular season.

* Florida State has scored 14 total touchdowns this season. Do you Buy or Sell them having 14 first downs against the Irish?

* Fill-in the blank...The prospects of a Notre Dame vs Indiana playoff game at Notre Dame Stadium is BLANK. 

* Thoughts on Noah Eagle and Todd Blackledge calling the game for NBC this week. 

* Fill-in the blank...This week’s Alabama – LSU game means BLANK for the losing coach.
