Mahoney reflects on community found at Notre Dame

Elizabeth Gasiorowski | Friday, December 18, 2020

For senior John Mahoney, walk-on safety and current president of the Notre Dame Walk-On Players’ Union — or “WOPU Nation,” as it is affectionately known — community has been an integral part of his football experience at Notre Dame.  “The one thing I can really take from the experience is the WOPU Nation; it’s just

We’re getting down to the nitty gritty as the trade deadline approaches throughout fantasy football leagues. Coming off yet another massively entertaining weekend of NFL action — whether that entertainment came via Tom Brady and the Buccaneers getting embarrassed or from the Jets possibly taking an intentional dive to increase their chances of drafting Trevor

Sam Ouhaj Must start: T.J. Hockenson, TE, Detroit Lions George Kittle and Zach Ertz are both hurt and are out presumably till the end of the season.

Sam Ouhaj Must play: Justin Herbert, QB, Los Angeles Chargers Justin Herbert has been on a tear since taking over the starting role in LA.

Week 2 of the NFL was filled with great comebacks, questionable play calls and unfortunately, a vast amount of injuries. In just Week 2 alone, there was a record-setting seven ACL tears in one day and a vast amount of other injuries. These injuries affected the likes of star running backs Christian McCaffery and Saquon

The first week of the NFL has concluded and with that, the first week of Fantasy Football. We saw great performances in players such as Ezekiel Elliott and Cam Newton, and not-so-great performances in players like Saquon Barkley and Michael Thomas.

This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bou This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bouts will begin its preliminary rounds. A men’s boxing tournament that benefits the Holy Cross Mission in Bangladesh, Bengal Bouts seems to perfectly combine two integral aspects of Notre Dame’s identity: a passion for sports and a commitment to social impact.

This week, From the Archives takes a long overdue look at the history of Bengal Bouts. While this tournament predates the Observer by nearly four decades, we uncovered a selection of stories that capture at least a part of the rich history of this Notre Dame tradition.

A bowl game win over LSU salvaged some optimism for the program’s future, but that loss to Northwestern was a shocking result that contributed to one of the more appalling stretches of Irish football in the Brian Kelly era.
