Notre Dame football spring practice is a month away, and the Irish have several critical defensive position battles that will determine roles, rotations, and the overall ceiling of the defense in 2026, including nickel, defensive tackle, will linebacker, and kicker. Tyler Wojciak breaks down the most important defensive position battles to watch this offseason, explains why the nickel position is essentially a starting role, analyzes the interior defensive line rotation and will linebacker competition, and closes with why stability at kicker matters more than star power for a championship-caliber defense.

The crew also debates where Notre Dame should stand compared to Texas, Vanderbilt, and Miami, discusses independence vs conference life in today’s college football, and weighs in on private investment in athletics. Then, they preview the Irish’s Top-25 showdown with Pitt, including how the Panthers’ elite run defense stacks up against Jeremiyah Love and Jadarian Price, whether Love deserves Heisman buzz, and what to expect from Pitt’s new quarterback. Finally, Reggie and Allen relive their favorite moments from their battles with the Panthers as Notre Dame looks to stay hot heading into November.
