A never-ending discussion about Notre Dame and the greater CFB landscape
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 […]

Notre Dame is back home for Senior Day, and a familiar senior day foe… the Syracuse Orange. The Irish have some work to do over the next two weeks to solidify, and possibly even improve, their college football playoff position. They also have an opportunity to really help make the Heisman case for Jeremiyah Love […]

Notre Dame improved to 8-2 on the season after traveling east to take down #22 Pitt 37-15 in a game that really felt more like 60-0. The Irish held Pitt to just 81 yards in the first half, and despite some below average play by CJ Carr — the offense moved the ball with relative […]

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 […]

Hello everyone, it’s Patrick Nolan here, and I’m excited to be back for another season of Irish basketball. To this point in the season, the Irish have won three games against teams near the bottom of the KenPom rankings, and we haven’t quite learned all that much yet about this year’s squad. While Notre Dame […]

The latest set of rankings from the AP Top 25 and Coaches Poll were released on Sunday, and Notre Dame found themselves ranked #9 again in both polls. Oklahoma’s win over Alabama catapulted the Sooners over the Irish and set the Crimson Tide right behind the Irish. Some (including myself) doubted that the voters would […]
