Scramble drill: Skowronek adjusting on the fly, adds new dimension to Irish offense

Aidan Thomas | Friday, December 18, 2020

As Notre Dame grinded its way to a 4-0 start on the strength of its run game and defense, the underperforming passing game came under intense scrutiny. The deep passing game was shaky at some times and nonexistent at others. Graduate student quarterback Ian Book was avoiding mistakes, but the lack of a vertical aspect

DeFazio: What an extra year of eligibility means for ND football’s future

Emily DeFazio | Thursday, November 12, 2020

With Notre Dame’s big win over Clemson on Saturday, the NCAA’s blanket waiver for fall athletes holds more weight than ever. While the reasons may not be the most apparent, they are still important to note. I think the biggest issue for the team this year has been the inconsistency that comes with a disjointed

Adams: Questions and comments after ND’s dismantling of Pitt

Hayden Adams | Wednesday, October 28, 2020

Not a whole lot of questions this week after Notre Dame beat Pitt 45-3. But that’s OK. It just means we can go more in depth on what we got. Enjoy.   Does ND have the ability at receiver to compete with Clemson after 2 injuries? Love that you’re already looking past Georgia Tech. Let’s

“Fearless” Irish step up, throttle Pitt 45-3

Aidan Thomas | Monday, October 26, 2020

Pitt has long been a dangerous opponent for Notre Dame. Twice, the Panthers have nearly ruined the Irish’s unbeaten seasons, both in 2012 and 2018. In the last six games against the Panthers, the Irish had won five, but they only notched one victory by more than a touchdown. Coming off an underwhelming 12-7 win

Book beginning to click with receivers just in time

Aidan Thomas | Monday, October 26, 2020

The passing game has been a much maligned part of the Notre Dame football roster this season. Entering their clash with Pitt, the No. 3 Irish were averaging just 178 yards per game through the air, having leaned heavily on a dynamic running game to start their season with an unblemished 4-0 record. The frustrations

Staff predictions 2020: Florida State Seminoles

Observer Sports Staff | Friday, October 9, 2020

Hayden Adams — Sports Editor And we’re back! It’s been a long two weeks since the Irish postponed their game against Wake Forest. Now they’re looking down the barrel at Florida State. The Seminoles are presumably looking down their own barrel, but theirs is essentially the barrel of a BB or Nerf gun. Remember when

Adams: Three takeaways for ND from this weekend’s CFB slate

Hayden Adams | Monday, September 28, 2020

I’ve said it a million and one times, but I am from Lexington, Ky., and as such I have a rooting interest in University of Kentucky athletics. The Southeastern Conference kicked off their football season this past Saturday with a full slate of games that included Florida-Ole Miss, LSU-Mississippi State, Georgia-Arkansas and Auburn-Kentucky. That last
