Notre Dame Buy/Sell/Hold - Part III

In Part III of the Irish Breakdown podcast, hosts Jeff and Trevor dive deep into Notre Dame's 2026 season outlook with a 'buy, sell, hold' analysis across multiple key predictions. They debate whether Notre Dame will shut out three teams, have three one-score games, or win by 35+ points three times in the regular season—ultimately selling the shutout and one-score game predictions due to historical difficulty and the team's likely dominance. They buy the 35-point win prediction, citing recent performances and a favorable schedule. The discussion extends to broader topics like quarterback depth, defensive recruiting strategy, and the importance of coaching adaptability. They also assess individual player projections, including draft potential and breakout candidates, and evaluate the likelihood of Notre Dame setting a school record for NFL draft picks in 2027. The hosts express cautious optimism about the team's potential to own the longest winning streak in college football, while acknowledging that even elite teams face competitive games. The episode closes with a nuanced take on player draft fit versus draft position, emphasizing long-term success over early hype.
