A never-ending discussion about Notre Dame and the greater CFB landscape
The Notre Dame Women’s Basketball team was back home inside Purcell Pavilion on Monday night to host the MAC’s Central Michigan Chippewas. The Irish played steady ball from start to finish, and saw five players score in double digits in an 83-51 win over CMU. One of the odd stats from the game is that […]

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are 9-2 and ranked #9 in the AP Top 25 and Coaches Poll. While we will have to wait a bit longer to get this weeks College Football Playoff rankings, it’s safe to assume they will remain #9. While that ranking could be a bit problematic for the next two […]

It really wasn’t all that long ago when national writers and national talking heads talked about Notre Dame VS Stanford as being one of the most underrated rivalries in college football. In my position, I saw a vast majority of fans look at this game as anything but a rivalry game — almost like they […]

Las Vegas, baby! The Notre Dame Fighting Irish had themselves a mid-afternoon tilt against the Kansas Jayhawks in the first round of the Players Era Tournament. After a disappointing final stretch in the Bellarmine game last week (which was a “win,” kinda), the Irish would have to dig deep to find another gear against a […]

On Monday, Notre Dame released its depth charts for the upcoming game against the Stanford Cardinal for the Legends Trophy and a possible playoff berth. Notre Dame suffered two more season ending injuries in their win over Syracuse with Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa and Chance Tucker going down with lower body injuries. While KVA will be a […]

Ok, so I really don’t know how much overreacting we had to this one. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish absolutely SHELLACKED the Syracuse Orange on Saturday afternoon. It all was so ridiculous that it was more comical than anything (and just downright sad for Syracuse). You could call never seeing something like what took place […]

Notre Dame got off to a rough start in 2025, but they looked like they fixed a few things in a 56-30 win over the Purdue Boilermakers and then the 56-13 win on the road against the Arkansas Razorbacks. They followed those two victories with two victories which covered massive spreads in a 28-7 win […]

Notre Dame beat Syracuse 70-7 on Saturday. It was fun and wonderful and full of good vibes, but it wasn’t like they beat Oregon 70-7. So, anyone out there that gave even a little credence to the possibility of moving up in the rankings this week — well they were wrong. On Sunday, both the […]

We expected the Week 13 slate of the 2025-26 season to be “less than competitive.” There weren’t a lot of big shocks across the sport but Notre Dame did stand out for the punishment it dealt to Syracuse. The game’s final score was 70-7 and it presents us with some of the wildest stats College Football has […]

Notre Dame took on what remains of the Syracuse Orange on Saturday and the result was, apart from a scary injury to Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa, about as close to perfect as you’ll find on a football field. It’s genuinely hard to pick out the most interesting or meaningful performers in a game so lopsided it was […]

In a game where Notre Dame wanted to flex its muscles a little bit for some style points, things got out of control in a hurry, and it ended with a 70-0 win over the Syracuse Orange. Notre Dame scored three touchdowns before the Irish offense even took the field. The first was a 44 […]

Well folks, I have no idea how we already made it here — it seems like just yesterday we were waiting until a Sunday night to watch CJ Carr throw 1000 screens against a Miami team who hasn’t looked that good since — but it’s officially Senior Day and the final home game of the […]

National Signing Day is just a few weeks away for Notre Dame and the rest of the country. Due to new NCAA legislation the early period has been moved up and this year it will start on December 3 and run through December 4. So, that whole thing about, “it’s a long way until signing […]

On Wednesday night, the Notre Dame Men’s Basketball team improved to 3-1 on the season after an 86-79 win over Bellarmine. It wasn’t a pretty game at all for the Irish as they struggled shooting the ball for stretches, and struggled from the free throw line (again). Markus Burton led the Irish with 25 points […]

Since I’ve already thrown back to the first three Notre Dame victories over Syracuse — 1914, 1961, and 2005 — this week we’re fast-forwarding a full century from that very first matchup to a much more recent meeting. For this Throwback Thursday, we’re heading to 2014, when the No. 8 Irish took on the Orange […]

How’d We Do Last Week? Most Wildly Inaccurate It brings me no joy to do this (yes it does) but our friend from BC joined the party again and had a brutally bad take. Here here! Most Interesting It’s mostly the visual of Herm cocking his head to the Nard dog for me. Most Accurate […]

On Tuesday night, the College Football Plaoff committee released its newest set of rankings, and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish remain as the #9 ranked team in the country. Honestly, I’m a little surprised the committee put Notre Dame at 9 and Alabama at 10. Obviously the AP Top 25 and Coaches Poll had the […]

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are 8-2 and ranked #9 in the nation following a 37-15 win over a ranked Pitt Panthers team led by a very petty Pat Narduzzi. The Irish are coming home to take on the Syracuse Orange for the last regular season game inside Notre Dame Stadium this year. It’s Senior […]
