Georgia Tech was the first team to win a game in the 2024 season when they seemingly pulled off a shocking upset over #10 Florida State in Ireland. Since then, we've discovered that Georgia Tech is a decent team while Florida State is aggressively terrible. The Yellow Jackets are feisty but extremely flawed and face [...]
What a year, huh? First we had that delicious road victory against a favored SEC team, then the devastating loss to NIU, and oh, I see we're not even halfway through the schedule. The 2024 Notre Dame football team has hit some crazy highs and fallen lower than the Marianas Trench with 75% of the [...]
Don't you just love it when the entire perception of your favorite team is shattered within the span of a week? Right after the Texas A&M victory, I began work on an article title titled "Why You Should Trust Notre Dame this Season" where I would gush about how Marcus Freeman has transformed this program [...]

It's been seven straight weeks of football and three consecutive games against ranked, undefeated foes but the show must go on. The unstoppable march of history waits for no one, and as much as Notre Dame would probably love an off-week that's just not an option. Following a demoralizing loss to Louisville, the Irish will [...]
In less than two weeks, we will be watching real-life college football again.

At long last, Senior Day. A bit of shine has come off this matchup considering BC's unresolved QB situation and all-around horrid season.

Follow me and ponder the question… What if? Those of you who are fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe will instantly recognize this question. After 12 years of slowly building up a media empire with familiar names, Marvel has unleashed the multiverse on the world. A realm filled with alternate realities has been explored by [...]
Only a Notre Dame fan can feel like they exist in purgatory despite the program winning at an 80% clip for the last four seasons. Yet it's somewhat justified because of the hollow feeling one has after the Irish failed to win a playoff game in its best run since the Holtz era. They managed [...]
More so than any other season of college football, 2020 has proven to be the ultimate test for coaches. The pandemic has produced more unique challenges for every program and the cream has truly risen to the top when it comes to coaching. Now, I wanted take a moment to talk about the coaches who [...]
Finally, the day of days is upon us. What though the odds, Notre Dame will play Clemson in the biggest game at Notre Dame Stadium since 2005. The importance of this showdown has somehow remained a constant throughout a global pandemic and chaotic election season. In many ways, it felt like we would never arrive [...]

Now we're finally getting somewhere! Some of these games had serious legacy ramifications for the Brian Kelly era and Notre Dame football as a whole. Part One and the bottom tier can be found here, while Part Two is here. Remember that the formula for this is [(Excitement at the time + Quality of Opponent) [...]
