The University of Notre Dame football team enjoyed a third full day in Scottsdale, Ariz., preparing for the showdown with Ohio State in the 2006 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl on Monday, Jan. 2, 2006. The day was filled with team meetings, a press conference and another solid practice at Scottsdale Community College.

Friday will be the official media day for the 2006 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. The Irish will get their first look at Sun Devil Stadium when the whole team turns out for the media day festivities, starting at 9:30 a.m. (www.und.com will have a full recap of the day’s events, including a comprehensive photo gallery).
