  • Notre Dame Preseason Power Rankings: Can the Irish Rise in 2026? | Beatline Fighting Irish

    Notre Dame Preseason Power Rankings: Can the Irish Rise in 2026? | Beatline Fighting Irish
    2026/08/22
    In this preseason power rankings episode, we break down where Notre Dame sits in the AP Top 25 and why they're being slept on. The Irish are 0-0 with a huge opener against Wisconsin on September 6th, and we think they have the talent to surprise people. With a dominant offensive line and playmakers at receiver and tight end, the pieces are there — but questions at quarterback and running back keep them from being ranked higher.

    We discuss the strengths and weaknesses of this roster, including the offensive line led by Charles Jagusah and Ashton Craig, the receiver depth with Jaden Greathouse and Jordan Faison, and the tight end duo of Cooper and James Flanigan. The quarterback competition between CJ Carr and Noah Grubbs is a major storyline, and the running back committee could be a concern. We also touch on the defensive questions and how injuries to Matty Augustine and Chaz Smith might impact depth.

    Finally, we give our season outlook and win projection. Doug says 10 wins, Carly says 11, but both agree this team has playoff potential. The opener against Wisconsin will set the tone, and we're confident the Irish can make a statement. Tune in for our full breakdown and predictions for the 2026 season.

    Notre Dame offensive lineman Matty Augustine and cornerback Chaz Smith are set for surgery after camp injuries, raising questions about depth heading into the 2026 season. On this mailbag episode, we break down what the injuries mean for the Irish and answer fan questions about the quarterback competition, running back rotation, and receiver breakout candidates.

    We discuss CJ Carr, Noah Grubbs, and Blake Hebert in the quarterback room, plus the running back battle between Nolan James Jr. and Javian Osborne. We also analyze the receiver depth featuring Jaden Greathouse, Jordan Faison, Elijah Burress, and Jerome Bettis Jr., and we examine the offensive line depth with Charles Jagusah, Anthonie Knapp, and Guerby Lambert. The episode also touches on the preseason AP poll, where Ohio State and Oregon top the rankings.

    Listeners ask about the impact of the Augustine and Smith surgeries, and we give our takes on the most important players to build around. Doug picks Charles Jagusah while Carly goes with CJ Carr. We also run a lightning round on Jordan Faison, Jerome Bettis Jr., and the 2027 recruiting class. Tune in for a full breakdown of the Fighting Irish's roster and storylines ahead of the 2026 season.

  • Notre Dame Mailbag: Augustine, Smith Injuries, QB Battle, WR Depth | Beatline Fighting Irish

    Notre Dame Mailbag: Augustine, Smith Injuries, QB Battle, WR Depth | Beatline Fighting Irish
    2026/08/20
    Notre Dame Fighting Irish fall camp has been hit with a pair of significant injuries before the first snap. Offensive lineman Matty Augustine is out after toe surgery, and cornerback Chaz Smith is sidelined with a wrist injury. The Irish are also in the middle of a wide-open quarterback battle, with no starter named yet. In this mailbag episode, hosts Carly and Doug answer fan questions about these key storylines and more.

    The episode covers the offensive line reshuffling, with Sullivan Absher, Charles Jagusah, Anthonie Knapp, Guerby Lambert, and Ashton Craig all in the mix to fill the void left by Augustine. The quarterback room features CJ Carr, Noah Grubbs, Blake Hebert, and Teddy Jarrard, and the staff is confident in developing in-house, though the transfer portal remains an option. At wide receiver, the Irish boast a deep group including Jerome Bettis Jr., Elijah Burress, Jordan Faison, Jaden Greathouse, Micah Gilbert, and Mylan Graham. The hosts also discuss the biggest position battles, a hypothetical transfer portal addition, and a lightning round touching on NFL draft prospects and the Big Ten's top-two AP poll ranking.

    This episode is perfect for any Notre Dame fan, from South Bend to the Irish diaspora. Carly and Doug provide daily analysis and answer fan questions on the Beatline Podcast Network. Subscribe, rate, and review to stay updated on all things Fighting Irish football.
