The Basement Breakdown crew returns after Notre Dame's 27-13 season-opening win over Duke. We begin by (re)introducing senior sports writer Ellen Geyer, and we jump straight into critiquing Ian Book and Notre Dame's offense (0:54). After we discuss the game against Blue Devils it's on to South Florida in a rematch of the infamous Brian Kelly-purple face game of 2011 (5:57). Then we get to some MAJOR college football news with the Big Ten announcing their return to play — spoiler alert: Ohioan Ellen is thrilled (11:13). We also have more Notre Dame sports returning to action this week (14:50), and after that discussion its on to everybody's favorite segment: Fact or Fiction (15:33). Enjoy all the scalding hot takes. Finally we wrap it up with predictions for how the Irish will fare against USF come Saturday (25:11).
