While this weekend was momentous in the world of Notre Dame Football, the Mid Major world decided to keep things a little low key in our last week without “weekday” football. That’s right starting this Wednesday, we will have college football on Wednesdays and Tuesdays for the month of October. Before we look ahead, let’s [...]
Despite the efforts of many, Notre Dame's regular season winning streak against ACC teams continued late on Saturday night as the Irish came from behind to drop a physical Duke team 21-14 in Durham. It certainly wasn't pretty but it's an important victory with a pair of big night games still to come on the [...]
4th and 16. The 2023 season, not to mention a potential firestorm week the likes of which Marcus Freeman has never seen, hung in the balance Saturday night at Duke. And Sam Hartman worked his magic. You have to believe Hartman took it personally when he came up short, literally (in the first quarter) and [...]
Well, it's time to see how well this 2023 Notre Dame team responds to adversity. A week after a soul-crushing loss to Ohio State at the last second, the program packs up for North Carolina and heads to Duke for a primetime night game with ESPN College GameDay on campus. This isn't just any old [...]

The final of three weekend commitments in the 2025 class occurred for Notre Dame on Sunday when defensive end Joseph Reiff gave his pledge to the Fighting Irish.

I wasn't going to publish this for another week or two but after Saturday night, well, let's get it out there now. Every year late August rolls around and that childlike excitement of college football returning puts me in a great mood. Then the games begin and I'm reminded, "Oh yeah, watching college football on [...]
Notre Dame received the second of three weekend verbals from the 2025 class immediately after the game ended on Saturday night when defensive end CJ May committed to the Fighting Irish.

We had 10 must-watch games featured in our article last week and from that group the favorites won 9 of the matchups. The only exception was the Pac-2 matchup out west that went in favor of the Cougars from Washington State. Add in our dear Irish crumbling and it was yet another favorite that won [...]
Notre Dame earned its first of three verbal commitments of the 2025 class this past weekend on Saturday afternoon when running back Daniel Anderson gave his pledge to the Fighting Irish.

The numbers aren't going to make you feel any better, or dissuade your from the idea Notre Dame outplayed Ohio State on a down-to-down basis and let them off the hook.

Welcome back to the 18S Mid Major Top Ten. After a week off due to sickness we're back to look at the Mid Majors right as conference play is on the horizon. While some teams have gotten to conference games, the majority are revving up their seasons this upcoming week. Let's see where the teams [...]
I've always said losses are easier to write game reviews for because there's more to unpack. Not this time. I went to bed immediately after the booth review on Ohio State's game-winning touchdown wondering if I'd just skip article and move on with life. This one really hurt. I'll just be typing random thoughts and [...]
When? When will this program, which can't catch a break anywhere under any circumstances, break through against one of the elite? It wasn't Saturday night. Ohio State delivered the latest dagger in what has been a life full of them for the Fighting Irish fan, scoring a touchdown as time ran out to beat ND [...]
For the first time since 1996--and only the 2nd time overall since 1936--Ohio State will be coming to Notre Dame for a football game. For long-time Midwestern powers separated by less than 280 miles it doesn't seem possible the Buckeyes have rarely visited South Bend but here we are. Back in 1996 the world was [...]
