    Texas A&M Insider Preview with Carter Karels
    Sep 8 2025

    Notre Dame football is gearing up for a huge Week 3 showdown against Texas A&M, and Tyler Wojciak is joined by Texas A&M Beat Writer Carter Karels from GigEm247 to break down Saturday’s showdown between the Fighting Irish and Texas A&M. They discuss Mike Elko’s second year leading the Aggies, how QB Marcel Reed and the offense have evolved, whether the defensive front can reload after losing three NFL draft picks, and how much last year’s fourth-quarter collapse against Notre Dame still hangs over College Station.

    MAILBAG! Play Calling Questions, Leadership Concerns, Impact Players, and Playoff Path
    Sep 5 2025
    Notre Dame fans have plenty of questions after the disappointing loss to Miami, and Tyler Wojciak attempts to answer them in another Friday Mailbag. Tyler breaks down the most pressing issues facing the Irish, including Mike Denbrock’s play calling, Marcus Freeman’s role in game management, and the underutilization of star running back Jeremiyah Love. Tyler also evaluates Christian Gray’s up-and-down play across from Leonard Moore, whether the offensive line’s struggles go deeper than expected, and how the captains can bounce back as leaders after tough performances. Finally, he looks ahead to Texas A&M with questions about the bye week, playoff scenarios, and what to expect from the home opener atmosphere.
