Tyler WojciakHOST
I think they're going to lean on Jayden Greathouse to kind of fulfill that same role going forward.
Tyler WojciakHOST
Defensively, not a whole lot of standout performances, but I did think Luke Talich made some good plays when he came in and he blew up that fake punt.
Tyler WojciakHOST
That was awesome.
Tyler WojciakHOST
Great play by him.
Bryan DriskellHOST
They just couldn't move the interior de-tackles of Notre Dame.
Bryan DriskellHOST
They just had no answers for Luke Talich.
Bryan DriskellHOST
You know what I mean? It just was things like that, Vince, where you start to say, hey, look, man, this stuff is all correctable.
Bryan DriskellHOST
Now just go out and correct it.
27 MINS LATER
Vince DeDarioHOST
Who do you have on defense, Brian?
Bryan DriskellHOST
I think this one is also just as obvious as it was on offense.
Bryan DriskellHOST
Luke Talich.
Bryan DriskellHOST
I went to watch the All-22 saying, okay, maybe Luke made more mistakes than we thought he made.
Reggie BrooksPANELIST
We struggle covering down on tight ends.
Reggie BrooksPANELIST
Me personally, I would have loved to see more of Luke Talich covering the tight end.
Reggie BrooksPANELIST
Because on that touchdown pass to Lyons, he basically just pushed O'Brien out of the way.
Allison HayesPANELIST
That was going to be my thing I was going to bring up.
Reggie BrooksPANELIST
Like I said, first half, they struggled, you know, to adjust to a few things.
Reggie BrooksPANELIST
But the defense played a hell of a game.
Reggie BrooksPANELIST
And I am – I'm going to sing the praises of Luke Talich from here until eternity because that young man – played his ass off, tackling, coverage.
Reggie BrooksPANELIST
He did it all.
Tim HydeHOST
So, and I know they came back and they got, you know, they got a field goal there.
Tim HydeHOST
That's after the, the Luke Talich got the TFL on the fake punt.
Tim HydeHOST
As I'm looking, they get the ball again.
Tim HydeHOST
They go right down the field, get the two point play touchdown interception.
Greg FlammangHOST
Not a lot of havoc plays on defense.
Greg FlammangHOST
I think they had two tackles for loss, one of which came on Luke Talich on the fake punt.
Greg FlammangHOST
So that's a tackle for loss there.
Greg FlammangHOST
Another one from Joey O'Brien.
21 MINS LATER
Greg FlammangHOST
True and true.
Greg FlammangHOST
I didn't think Joey O'Brien needed to be on the tight end in that spot.
Greg FlammangHOST
I think that needed to be Luke Talich.
Greg FlammangHOST
I just feel like he's the better option in that case.
Greg FlammangHOST
Um, they, there was Drake Bowen talked about, uh, Joey O'Brien getting beat on the last play for touchdown.
Greg FlammangHOST
What I will say about that is like, how is it not looked out? How is it not Luke Talich, man? Like, that's why he's there.
Greg FlammangHOST
You send Joy O'Brien on the blitz then.
Greg FlammangHOST
Yeah.
Greg FlammangHOST
And Luke Talich, he's your best tight end defender on the team.
Greg FlammangHOST
It's not that Joy O'Brien can't.
Greg FlammangHOST
It's like Luke Talich is a better matchup.
Jamie UyeyamaHOST
It's like, yeah, you know, it was great that Traore got the pick against Stanford, and that's great.
Trevor TrowbridgeHOST
I appreciated that switch.
Trevor TrowbridgeHOST
Luke Talich is a dude.
Trevor TrowbridgeHOST
Luke Talich in 2026 has been Notre Dame's best safety, and it ain't close.
Trevor TrowbridgeHOST
Not close.
Trevor TrowbridgeHOST
He was one of the only players on defense that rotated in and or started that for the entire first half I thought wanted to be in Provo, Utah.
Vince DeDarioHOST
Honestly.
Vince DeDarioHOST
I mean, other
Trevor TrowbridgeHOST
players played fine, but shout out to Luke Talich for holding it down on the back end.
Tim PristerHOST
I mean, Brigham Young won the exchange.
Tim PristerHOST
There's a muff punt, and there was Luke Talich, the omnipresent Luke Talich, making a stop on a fourth down fake punt, ill-advised by BYU.
Tim PristerHOST
Notre Dame got six points out of those two turnovers.
Tim PristerHOST
They definitely needed more.
Reggie BrooksGUEST
I still don't think we've got developed a tight end, which I like, but the receivers, running backs, the depth is, quality of depth is there.
Reggie BrooksGUEST
So, you know, we just, we lost Tate Johnson, you know, first game, but, you know, you got Luke Talich, And O'Brien, they came in like gangbusters at the safety position.
Reggie BrooksGUEST
So it hasn't seen a lot of drop off, you know, I would say Jason Onye is one, except from the defensive line.
Reggie BrooksGUEST
And that's something where Notre Dame has struggled over the years that Coach Freeman has been there, of having that depth and power at the defensive tackle position.
Tim PristerGUEST
And if you're putting some pressure on Bear Bachmeier, I think he's the guy to come up with it.
Phil HoukHOST
All right, Jordan Faison on the offense and Luke Talich on the defense.
Phil HoukHOST
Those are your UTR Recruiting key Irish players this week.
