Specialists don’t run the triple option despite the triple option being special. 5-STAR KICKER IS IRISH Notre Dame addressed last season’s kicking issues with the transfer portal, but they are still out here recruiting the hell out of the high school ranks. Micah Drescher just arrived on campus as a freshman, but now the Irish […]

By late September of 2015, Notre Dame’s offense was becoming one of the most dangerous units in college football. Whether it was C.J. Prosise breaking long runs, Will Fuller stretching defenses deep, or DeShone Kizer growing more comfortable under center with each passing week, the Irish had discovered something powerful: they could score in bunches. […]
ESPN and writer Adam Rittenberg released an article today where Rittenberg looked at the future of all the power conference college football teams and ranked them from most promising to least for the 2027 season.

The disrespect simply doesn't stop with BYU football, and we're still months away from the beginning of the season. The marquee matchup of the season, a home battle with fellow CFP slight Notre Dame, will catch the nation's attention. A new version of the
CJ Carr may not be running the triple option at Notre Dame, but we do here at OFD. CJ CARR TRASH TALKING EVERYONE One of the things we all noticed, wrote about, talked about, and laughed about this past spring was just how chippy this Notre Dame football team was with each other during their […]

Notre Dame football cornerback Leonard Moore stands front and center for the EA Sports College Football ’27 Deluxe cover. But he’s likely front and center inside the Miami (FL) locker room too. Moore fired off some warning shots bound to get the Hurricanes’ attention. Especially before both storied programs meet again in 2026. The returning […] The post Leonard Moore sends revenge warning to Miami (FL) before 2026 clash appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Notre Dame football recruiting for the 2027 class is doing a fantastic job right now, and they are definitely lining up the real possibility of another top five class. And yet… linebacker recruiting is kind of confusing right now. At one point, the Irish had two 4-Star linebackers in the fold with Ellis McGaskin and […]
Illinois Football is not the most prestigious program in college football. Bret Bielema has turned the program around from the day of Lovie Smith, finishing in the Top 25 each of the last two years. On the other end of the spectrum is Notre Dame, which has consistently been a dominant program. This past week, […] The post Illinois coach Bret Bielema grabs attention with pointed shot at Notre Dame appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Illinois head coach Bret Bielema had some pretty strong words for Notre Dame athletic director Pete Bevacqua on Thursday after the latter suggested a super league would be the best way to monetize college football television rights (but was against such a venture).
Notre Dame is getting its fair share of preseason hype — which is going to just annoy the hell out of the Irish haters out there. One pundit who’s been known to be an Irish hater, but is actually just a math nerd (with all love and respect, respectfully) is ESPN’s Bill Connelly who is […]
According to a report on 247, the Texas Tech Red Raiders are looking to schedule a big non-conference home and home series for the 2027 and 2028 college football season. Obviously… Notre Dame is being mentioned as one of the possible teams. But here’s the thing… Notre Dame’s 2027 schedule is already full with 12 […]
Oregon football made up for a notable four-star College Football Recruiting loss Wednesday. They landed a four-star defender after losing running back target Noah Roberts to Texas one week ago. This incoming linebacker Toa Satele even turned down the Longhorns for the Ducks, plus Notre Dame. The Ducks end up winning the recruitment of the […] The post 4-star LB picks Oregon over Notre Dame, Texas appeared first on ClutchPoints .
It’s June, so obviously one of our favorite offseason topics concerns the aesthetic of the Notre Dame Football program. Yes… it’s GOLD PANTS time. I’m pretty sure if you’ve listened to the podcast over the years, you already know my absolute belief that the current gold pants are the best version of what the Irish […]
Marcus Freeman has been an incredible recruiter for the Fighting Irish ever since he stepped onto Notre Dame’s campus. In fact, the entire football recruiting operation at Notre Dame is on an entirely different level than what we have seen in the past. One of the many reasons for all of this is because of […]
Notre Dame will go on the road six times during the 2027 college football season. We all know that (at least on paper) Notre Dame’s schedule isn’t filled with a number of tough games. Perhaps the greatest criticism of Notre Dame’s schedule could be that they only have four true road games, while two others […]
In July, EA Sports will be releasing this year’s version of the wildly popular College Football video game. It’s been nice to have the game back in the rotation over the last few years after a decade hiatus due to… well, legal reasons I guess. The new version of the game now allows for the […]
