Notre Dame Women’s Basketball: Irish blow out Bellarmine inside Purcell Pavilion, 110-38
In game two inside Purcell Pavilion today, the Notre Dame women’s basketball team didn’t fall victim to a small school — unlike their male counterparts earlier in the day. A lot of that is due to Hannah Hidalgo’s giant day as she tallied a triple double with 30 points, 13 steals, and 10 assists.
Notre Dame upset at home by Purdue Fort Wayne, 72-69
We can’t have nice things. There was some momentum moving in favor of Notre Dame and its basketball hopes this season, but against the Purdue Fort Wayne Mastadons, they really looked like they miss Markus Burton more than ever. The Irish trailed at halftime, could never get over the hump, and eventually fell to the […]
Aamil Wagner’s decision to leave Notre Dame for the NFL Draft hurts Notre Dame
Sometimes I think fans kind of glaze over the departure of offensive linemen. Regardless if the player is transferring or leaving for the NFL — it never really is met with as much concern as other positions. Maybe it’s because we look at the offensive line as more of a unit than a “room” when […]
College Football Playoff First Round: OPEN THREAD
Well it’s Saturday and we just saw the Alabama Crimson Tide beat the Oklahoma Sooners on Friday night in the first game of the college football playoff while Notre Dame sits at home. Anways… the thread is open for the day’s action. Have fun.
College Football Playoff First Round: STAFF PICKS
The college football playoff is here and it hits quite a bit differently this year after Notre Dame got hosed by the committee in the final two sets of the playoff rankings — but I’ve already done that post. As I’ve said before, I am not doing a silly boycott of the playoffs (or the […]

How long do you think the fix was in for Notre Dame with the playoff committee?
If you’re anything like me, you’re probably still not over the screwjob that the college football playoff committee gave Notre Dame just a few weeks ago. The fact that the first round of playoff games start tomorrow, really only invigorates our disdain and disgust. I plan on watching every playoff game, and I really don’t […]
Throwback Thursday: Notre Dame Fighting Irish Football Narrowly Defeat the Rainbow Warriors
When I climbed into my car Monday morning and the temperature read 14 degrees, I knew immediately that I needed a little mental warmth to start the week. Something sunny. Something tropical. Something far, far away from icy windshields and frozen fingers. So for this week’s Throwback Thursday, I took a trip back to paradise […]

Notre Dame running back Jadarian Price declares for the NFL Draft
On Tuesday, Jeremiyah Love announced his decision to leave Notre Dame a year early for the NFL Draft, so it really comes as an act of mercy that one day later, Jadarian Price announced his decision to enter the NFL Draft with a year of eligibility left on the table. Notre Dame fans didn’t have […]

Notre Dame 82, Evansville 58: Irish calmly dismantle Purple Aces
Today’s game against the Evansville Purple Aces wasn’t supposed to involve a lot of drama, and credit to the Irish for making sure there wasn’t. Notre Dame has already played several teams below Evansville (rank: 280) on the KenPom rankings, so particularly with Markus Burton in street clothes, this was by no means the easiest […]

Is Notre Dame Football about to lose another assistant coach?

Some games don’t just open a season — they announce a statement. And in 1998, Notre Dame delivered one loud enough to echo all the way from South Bend to Ann Arbor.
