After a disappointing campaign in 2016 that saw Notre Dame suffer its first losing season under Brian Kelly, the Irish came out in the fall with a lot to prove. Brian Kelly made a host of changes over the offseason with the additions of eight new coaches, including offensive coordinator Chip Long and defensive coordinator Mike Elko.

ORLANDO, Fla. — In order to reach the 10-win threshold Irish head coach Brian Kelly had harped on in the days leading up to Monday’s Citrus Bowl, No. 14 Notre Dame needed to find a way to beat No. 17 LSU. And the Irish (10-3) did just that, leaving Camping World Stadium and kicking off

STANFORD, Calif. — For a moment, it seemed like Notre Dame had Stanford on its heels. After a back-and-forth first half that saw both the Irish (9-3) and the Cardinal (9-3, 7-2 Pac-12) struggle to establish the run game — and instead turn to their quarterbacks for an offensive spark — Notre Dame came out
