Prior to the season this game was marked down as a potential highlight of 2025 if both programs could get to late September unbeaten. Well, scratch that both teams have let the college football world down (to be fair both sides are extremely close to being a combined 7-0 as well) and now we're getting [...]
Now we're getting into the thick of conference schedules. We've messed around on the edges a little bit and this weekend some proper bangers are headed our way to start separating teams and developing some early playoff rankings. Normally, Alabama and Georgia would carry the weekend but we have a huge Big Ten matchup (still [...]
There was a lot of offense out there in week 4 of the college football season. That included Notre Dame slicing its way through Purdue's defense, that was pretty fun. For now, we don't need to talk about the other side of the ball for the Irish. It was a quiet week nationally with not [...]
Notre Dame teetered on pass defense, dealt with a lightning delay reaching nearly 2 hours, and finally picked up its first win of the season thanks to a nearly flawless performance from the offense. If only the Irish could play Purdue every week, this whole college football fandom thing would be pretty fun. It was [...]
Two years in a row Notre Dame came into a matchup with Purdue deflated. Two years in a row the Irish have left the matchup with a W, though this one was a bit different. That probably says as much about Purdue - no longer a complete train wreck - as it does about Notre [...]
The New York Atlas, led by Notre Dame stars Liam Entenmann and Bryan Costabile, win the 2025 Premier Lacrosse League Championship! Along with Pat Kavanagh of the runner-up Denver Outlaws, our Irish alumni were spectacular in the season finale at Sports Illustrated Stadium in Harrison, New Jersey. The Game Early in the game it was [...]
Looking back at last year, it seems funny. Notre Dame was coming off a loss to Northern Illinois and everyone was in the dumps. Purdue had shutout Indiana State in their opener and were coming off a week 2 bye week. Only 53 weeks ago, Vegas had the Irish as just 9.5 point favorites while [...]
This is the wedding weekend. Notre Dame finally has an afternoon kickoff as a heavy favorite, the national lineup is quite weak, and you're free to go do other things with your life. If you must. However, if you're a true Sicko there's always something fun to find amongst the cupcakes and bye weeks. Actually, [...]
It was a dark week for Notre Dame who opens the season 0-2 and quickly tumbles out of the 18 Stripes Top 20. Spoiler alert! The great thing about college football is watching the misery of other teams as well, though. There's always plenty of that to go around. Heck, we already have two power [...]
The chips were on the table for Notre Dame to finish off a close and frustrating comeback win to reset their season. It wouldn't have been pretty but a victory would've been big in keeping the playoff hopes alive for the Irish. Now, after Texas A&M executes a game-winning touchdown drive the panic button is [...]
The thought crossed my mind at some point tonight - maybe it was around the 6th time Marcel Reed threw to a wide open receiver 20 yards downfield - that in the new college football world that seems so much like the NFL, maybe the "post-Super Bowl hangover" phenomenon you hear so much about in [...]
Irish. Aggies. Elko. Freeman. Eagle. Blackledge. As the man said, sit back, relax, and strap it down because we are in for a fun one. […]
After a slow week 2 at the top of the rankings the season is moving along with what should be some better matchups this weekend. Showcased by a big ranked vs. ranked matchup in the SEC we also get to see the early 2025 season darlings USF travel to Miami and a few other games [...]
A season opening loss directly into a bye week--is it torture for Notre Dame fans or an opportunity to regroup and reset the season for the next 11+games? We'll try our best to keep a level head. Hopefully everyone spent the weekend grilling cheeseburgers and laughing at other teams who lost. In the first regular [...]
Every year I remember to do so, I like to examine the Notre Dame football schedule for signs of those always-dangerous spots on the schedule known as the Trap Games, in honor of the great Admiral Ackbar (RIP), who to this day I wish would've been the Ole Miss mascot. I rate those trap games [...]
