Notre Dame travels to Arkansas to face the Razorbacks in an ABC-televised game kicking off at 11 Central in Week 5 of the 2025 college football season. Jay Greeson and Chris Lee preview the game, with topics including: Arkansas quarterback Taylen Green is a one-man wrecking crew who can win games with outstanding performances. But the Razorbacks have to stop shooting themselves in the foot with turnovers and untimely penalties. Notre Dame was torched by Texas A&M's Marcel Reed in the passing game two weeks ago, providing some hopes for an Arkansas upset. The Razorbacks were also awful against the run vs. Memphis, and now face one of the country's top running backs in Jeremiyah Love. Statistically, Arkansas's defense is better than Notre Dame's in some categories, but the Fighting Irish's schedule has included Miami and Texas A&M. With coach Sam Pittman on the hot set, is a home game here the best or worst thing that could happen to Arkansas? And how much are the Razorbacks bought into playing for Pittman? Finally, the Irish have to win this one to stand any chance to make the Playoff. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

After a close loss to Miami to start the season and a bye in Week 2, the Fighting Irish have a lot to prove to backup the preseason hype.

In this candid conversation, Freeman talks leadership, pressure, and what it truly takes to build a sustainable culture of excellence. Freeman opens up about the hunger that still drives him, the lessons taken from last year, and the mounting expectations as Notre Dame returns a roster stacked with talent and leadership. He reflects on the evolution of the Fighting Irish under his watch, handling pressure, the growing expectations on and off the field, and how he's preparing his team—and himself—for the next step. Freeman also shares his excitement for breakout running back Jeremiah Love, whose explosive finish to the 2024 season has fans buzzing and opposing defenses on alert. With bigger responsibilities in the spotlight, Love is expected to be a game-changer in the Irish offense—and a major factor in Notre Dame's championship hopes. With unfiltered honesty and a competitor's mindset, Marcus Freeman gives fans and critics alike an inside look at what's coming next for Notre Dame football.
