Notre Dame football stays rolling! Mike Golic Jr. and Jessica Smetana react to the Fighting Irish's dominant 49-10 win over Purdue — Notre Dame's program-record 14th straight double-digit victory.
Marcus Freeman's defense delivered again. The guys break down the disruptive defensive line play and the emergence of Bryce Young as one of Notre Dame's most dynamic pass rushers.
On offense, Mike and Jess discuss the tough news that wide receiver Quincy Porter will miss the rest of the season following knee surgery, what it means for receiver depth, and why Micah Gilbert's production is now even more important. Plus, they revisit the viral CJ Carr touchdown vs. Purdue — his competitive response after getting shoved at wide receiver — and why the Irish quarterback continues to look poised and decisive.
Later, Notre Dame women's basketball freshman Jacy Abii joins The Echoes to talk her transition from Dallas to South Bend, the standard set by head coach Niele Ivey, and the excitement around a talented new Irish roster. Abii shares what she's learning from Hannah Hidalgo, her goals for her freshman season, Notre Dame's WNBA pipeline, team chemistry, campus life and more.
If you live for Irish football, traditions, and stories that make Notre Dame different, this is your full Notre Dame vs Purdue recap.
