The approach is still the same and the preparation and taking that field and taking it all in. I think we’re going to be able to have some recruits there even though we can’t interact with them. You don’t have to really deal with the pregame festivities and recruiting and all of a sudden you kind of really just focus on being there. The thing I like about away games is that there’s a lot of times less distractions. I’ll say it again, it’s just your preparation and the execution. a great opponent, but don’t distract from what it takes to get the desired outcome. It’s the distinction that we have a home game in Las Vegas vs. But I’m sure there’s gonna be a lot of BYU fans there too. At a neutral site but it’s technically a home game for us in Vegas.
#Football drip series
“Well, I think for me probably more than anything was looking back at last year’s Shamrock Series game vs. Freeman stated that he’ll lean on what he learned in last year’s Shamrock Series game against Wisconsin in Chicago. So, anything to keep these guys confident, man, if it’s a new jersey, for them to feel good about playing this game, I’m all for it.”ĭespite the fact that everything about the game itself is the same - these neutral site matchups are very different from a home game - and almost equally different from an away game. I’m like, ‘Alright guys.’ I don’t think it truly affects the way they play, but you know what, if they look good and they feel good, I’m all for it. It might even be a request they said to maybe wear them again. Our kids loved to wear the green jerseys they wore a couple of weeks ago. They love to wear something new, something different. As a player, I never had a chance to wear any other jersey than our normal home and away, but I think it’s something that players nowadays, our young guys love it. I said, ‘What is drip, man?’ I don’t know, but it’s a belief in the Freeman kids that they feel like if they have drip, or they look better, that they play better. We got a six year old and an eight year old and they kept talking to me about drip. How does Marcus Freeman not know about that drip? Freeman was asked if he thought that the players somehow played better because of how they look in the alternate uniforms.
Of course, one of the fun things about a Shamrock Series game is the uniform package for the Irish. “They got the head coach, who will be be doing bed check at 8:30 pacific time on Friday night. We have to remember that our bodies are used to Eastern Standard Time, so we’re going to try to get them to bed at a decent hour and wake them up at a decent hour to get us ready for the game on Saturday.” We’ll have some time together, a normal meeting that we have on Friday nights, and then they’re going to go to bed. Go to the stadium, I want them to go see Allegiant Stadium, spend a little bit of time there, go straight to the hotel, have dinner. We’re going to get there and in be very strategic on what we do. We’re not going to get out there in time to experience any of the distractions that I think Las Vegas can present. Due to the nature of Vegas, Freeman was asked about the distractions this week, and how the team will operate for the trip.
The Irish travel to Las Vegas this week to take on the BYU Cougars in a Shamrock Series matchup. On Monday, Notre Dame head coach Marcus Freeman held court for his weekly press conference.
