Irish overcome injuries and adversity to reach Fiesta Bowl

Zach Klonsinski | Friday, May 13, 2016

In the end, it was all just too much for Notre Dame — too many injuries, too much rain, too many seconds and too much Ezekiel Elliot.

Secondary picture still fluid as spring closes

Renee Griffin | Friday, April 15, 2016

The images of Ohio State running and passing all over an injury-wracked Irish secondary in the Fiesta Bowl have hardly faded, making the open competitions at the cornerback and safety positions this spring all the more significant. By the end of 2015, Notre Dame’s ranks of defensive backs were so depleted that senior receiver Torii

Carson: New, returning starters will forge Notre Dame’s identity

Alex Carson | Friday, April 15, 2016

Notre Dame returns just four offensive and five defensive starters from its 10-2 team a season ago. There’s no Will Fuller or C.J. Prosise; no Ronnie Stanley or Sheldon Day; no Jaylon Smith or KeiVarae Russell. Yet when the Irish kick off their 2016 campaign in Austin, Texas, on Sept. 4, the goal will be the same

Mary Green | Thursday, February 4, 2016

When Irish coaches woke up Wednesday morning, they expected to officially add 22 players to their 2016 recruiting class. But by the end of the day, they had 24 — including each in the original 22-player group. In a time when decommitments, especially close to or even on National Signing Day, have become more and

Klonsinski: Irish fall short of completing fairy-tale season

Zach Klonsinski | Tuesday, December 1, 2015

STANFORD, Calif. — Saturday night we watched what seemingly could have been a dream season, the type they make movies about, come to an arguably unfitting end at Stanford Stadium.

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.

That game was a heartbreaking loss for a Notre Dame team that had started 6-0 before stumbling down the stretch to a 7-5 record. 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.
