99-0 is now the combined score of Notre Dame’s last two Senior Night games.  The Irish closed out the home season with a dominant 44-0 win over Boston College on a brutally cold and snowy afternoon in South Bend.  Notre Dame put together another one of their most complete all-around performances and did exactly what […]Source

Notre Dame improved to 7-3 this season with a 35-32 nailbiter victory over the Midshipmen of Navy last Saturday and this game was truly a tale of two halves.  After a dominant opening half, the Irish could not find anything to work after halftime and had just enough offensive output to escape with the win.  […]Source

Bully ball.  That was the motto that came out of Saturday’s 35-14 domination that Notre Dame put on fourth ranked Clemson.  From start to finish, there wasn’t any doubt, from the players to the fans, to anyone watching the game, who was the better team that night.  The Irish were able to impose their will […]Source

Another victory and another game closer to bowl eligibility – that is what Notre Dame was able to achieve against the Orange of Syracuse this past Saturday.  The trend of the Irish playing their best football away from Notre Dame Stadium continued with a 41-24 victory in Notre Dame’s first of three remaining matchups against […] Source

After improving to a 4-3 record on the year with a 44-21 victory over UNLV, the vibes around the Notre Dame football program should be pretty positive, right?  Yes, the Irish won by 23 points, but I don’t feel that they answered many of the questions that needed to be addressed going into last week’s […] Source

What two words would I use to describe the game against Stanford?  Absolutely pathetic.  How does a mostly veteran-led team have trouble getting up and ready for a night game at home?  This Notre Dame team came out flat, played lackadaisically, and left me with even more questions than before.  I honestly don’t remember the […] Source

11-0.  That is now Notre Dame’s record in Shamrock Series games, which is rather impressive if you ask me!  The Irish improved to 3-2 on the year with a 28-20 victory over then 16th ranked BYU.  With the game taking place in Las Vegas, we got to see some of the glitz and glam – Michael […] Source

After coming off the earliest bye week since 2014, Saturday will mark Notre Dame’s 11th Shamrock Series game as the Irish travel to Las Vegas to take on the 16th ranked BYU Cougars.  If we’re being honest, two to three weeks ago I had lost hope for this game – ready to chalk it up as an […] Source

For the first time during the 2022 football season, I was actually having fun watching a Notre Dame game.  The Irish put together a performance that looked like who Marcus Freeman wanted them to be and it was very encouraging to see.  Going into the bye week, Notre Dame improved to 2-2 overall with a […] Source

In his post-game press conference, Marcus Freeman said that he “had a conversation with God” during the last minute and change of the Cal game.  Three potential turnovers that were taken away from the Irish and a hail mary heave that almost tied the game for the Golden Bears; from the stands, I was doing […] Source

Wow…that was certainly not the start of the season that I, or any Notre Dame fans for that matter, was expecting.  The eighth ranked Fighting Irish fell to unranked Marshall at home by a final of 26-21.  With the updated AP Poll coming out at the beginning of the week, Notre Dame is now unranked […] Source

Well, the unfortunate news as Notre Dame fans is that Marcus Freeman is technically 0-2 as the Irish head football coach.  0-2 against two very talented programs, I get it.  We will learn a lot about this year’s Notre Dame team in this week’s matchup against Marshall – how they respond to a loss, how […] Source

With all the extraordinary changes shaking up the landscape of college football this offseason, from coaching moves to conference realignment, one thing remains constant – come early September, it’s time for the season to kickoff.  A daunting task looms in front of the Irish this season as first-time head coach Marcus Freeman, first-time starting quarterback […] Source

1.        Defensive Ends – Isaiah Foskey passed up an opportunity to enter the NFL draft this past year to come back to South Bend for his senior season and a shot at a CFP berth. He will also anchor one of the nation’s top individual units in the Irish defensive line. Foskey […] Source

Marking the first ever matchup between these two programs, the 2021-22 Fiesta Bowl will feature the Oklahoma State Cowboys and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.  Notre Dame enters this New Year’s Day game with an 11-1 record and ranked fifth in the nation, while the Cowboys come in ranked ninth with an 11-2 record.  Will […] Source

In what has already been an insanely unpredictable couple of weeks since Notre Dame wrapped up their regular season finale at Stanford, the Irish saw their head coach of the past 12 years depart for the head coaching gig at LSU and hired an exciting up-and-coming superstar in Marcus Freeman to take the reins in […] Source

Saturday’s 45-14 victory over Stanford marked Notre Dame’s 11th win of the season; another rather dominant performance on both sides of the ball.  Quarterback Jack Coan passed for over 300 yards for the first time since September and Kevin Austin finally looked like a true number one receiver.  The 11th win put the Irish in square contention for the […] Source

Saturday’s dominating 55-0 win over the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets marked the tenth win for the Fighting Irish. This is Brian Kelly’s fifth season in a row with 10 plus wins, and as of now, the Irish are one of two Division 1 programs to have at least 10 wins every year since 2017, the […] Source
