Writing this article, I could try and offer some early preview of the Notre Dame football season, but the fact remains I know just about the same amount of information as I did on Jan. 2 — the day I was processing Notre Dame’s Rose Bowl defeat to Alabama in the College Football Playoff. Besides

With the Blue and Gold game taking place this weekend, it is time to take our first official look at the Irish offense for the 2021 season.

Davis has even gained national prominence after his electric performance against Clemson, in which he accumulated 78 yards and pushed the game into OT with a pivotal receiving

On Monday, following a win against former No. 1 Clemson at Notre Dame Stadium, Brian Kelly spoke to the media about the accomplishments of the team, as well as what lies ahead. Kelly was asked if he allowed himself to “soak in the moment” after beating the No. 1 team. “My normal routine is to

On perhaps the most influential day in American history, Notre Dame beat a top-ranked opponent in Dabo Swinney’s Clemson Tigers. It was the first time the Irish hosted a No. 1 ranked opponent in 15 years and the last time they got a victory over the best in the nation since 1993. The double-overtime slugfest

When it comes to this, my word is gospel (or so I like to think anyway). Athletes are the closest thing in everyday life to superheroes. Their physical prowess awes the masses. With that in mind, leave it to a wannabe Scene Writer like me to write a column combining my two greatest passions: sports
