The Notre Dame offense came to life against a terrible North Carolina defense in Chapel Hill, and the defense shut down the 15th ranked offense in F+ for a large middle stretch of the game, allowing the Irish to pull away from the Heels. Drew Pyne found his rhythm, the rushing attack gashed UNC, and [...]
Your weekly dose of Notre Dame news, opinion, and other stuff. Top News Georgia Tech head coach Geoff Collins and athletic director Todd Stansbury have both been fired. Offensive line coach Brent Key will step up as the interim head coach. Stanford leading rusher EJ Smith will be out for the season due to injury. [...]
The Notre Dame faithful are about to descend upon Sin City (or the Holy Land, depending on how one looks at the world). Irish fans of all ages, shapes and sizes are eagerly awaiting this Shamrock Series event in Vega$ against BYU. As a courtesy to the fans who are making their travel plans, we [...]
The Irish hoops staff strikes again as guard Parker Friedrichsen committed to Notre Dame on Tuesday afternoon. Friedrichsen becomes the Irish's third 2023 commitment, just a few days after forward Brady Dunlap became the second. Friedrichsen plays his high school and AAU ball in Oklahoma, one of very few national prospects from the state in [...]
Four teams tumble out of our latest top 20 rankings as a fun week 4 mixes up the back half of our poll. The top 3 show no signs of letting up but the Beavers near-upset of USC, Tennessee finally getting Florida, and Texas definitely not being back were some of the highlights across the [...]
A few big pass plays for North Carolina masked what was otherwise a very dominant performance as Notre Dame went into Chapel Hill and picked up their first road win of 2022 and the Marcus Freeman era. Things started poorly for the Irish after UNC drove down the field to open the game while converting [...]
If the 2022 season starts taking off in a good direction following next week's open date, we might look back at the second quarter of Saturday's 45-32 win over North Carolina as a turning point. The Irish were plodding along through the first quarter, again largely unable to move the ball even against North Carolina's [...]
Marcus Freeman takes his charges to Tobacco Road to face the Tar Heels tomorrow in what has emerged as a surprisingly pivotal matchup for the first-year head coach. Come-from-ahead losses in his first two games at the helm of the program, a shocking loss to a theoretically overmatched opponent in his home opener, and a [...]
Forward Brady Dunlap pledged his commitment to Mike Brey and the Irish hoops staff on Thursday night just a few days after his official visit to South Bend. Dunlap joins local point guard Markus Burton as the second commit in Notre Dame's 2023 class. Dunlap currently plays high school ball in California and spent some [...]
It was ugly early and often for Notre Dame against Cal. But with both lines finally controlling the game for solid stretches, the Irish carved out enough advantages against the Bears to pull away late. In Drew Pyne's first start the ND offense was extremely careful but moved the ball well enough with short to [...]
Your weekly dose of Notre Dame news, opinion, and other stuff. Top News Herm Edwards has been fired at Arizona State. In just over 4 seasons he was 26-20 with the Sun Devils. With a NCAA investigation still pending, ASU has turned to running backs coach Shaun Aguano as the interim head coach. Sports Illustrated [...]
The Pac-12 led week 3 with some of the bigger wins this past Saturday but also suffered some really bad losses with one coach already handed his papers following an embarrassing defeat. Elsewhere, the top of the rankings look the same with Georgia continuing to look terrifying for a program supposedly rebuilding from their 2021 [...]
It’s been a crazy couple of weeks for the Group of Five the past couple of weeks. First off, I wanna say that I was on the road and sick last week, so that was why I didn't have a list for you all. Second of all, with all of the crazy results this week, [...]
It was ugly early on during the Notre Dame-Cal game on Saturday afternoon. And I mean very, very ugly. Nearly a full hour elapsed before a first down from either team was made. The Irish offense especially came out seriously disheveled with quarterback Drew Pyne playing like the moment was far too big for him. [...]
You could see it on Marcus Freeman's face when JD Bertrand was called for the world's most obvious targeting foul on the final drive, and you could see it again when Cal came within a whisker of catching the Hail Mary on the final play. "This couldn't just be easy, could it?" It could not. [...]
