You can pinch yourselves Ohio State football fans because it is officially game week. And if there’s a game on the docket, that means we get to see, taste, and feel all that goes with it, including head coach press conferences from both sides.

Buckeye head coach Ryan Day will take his turn in front of the media officially tomorrow, but we got to hear from Notre Dame head coach Marcus Freeman on Monday as his team prepared to travel to Ohio Stadium for a top-five matchup with the Buckeyes.

In case you missed any of Freeman’s comments, you can catch them all thanks to video from the Notre Dame Fighting Irish YouTube channel below. Hit the play button and listen to Freeman discuss how great of a team Ohio State is, his feelings about going back to play his alma mater, the challenges the Buckeyes pose, and more.

Ohio State and Notre Dame are set to kick off at 7:30 pm ET on ABC Saturday. We’ll have plenty leading up to the game with previews and other news items, so check back all week.
