One convincing, one close victory bring Irish to Sweet 16

Andrew McGuinness | Tuesday, March 21, 2023

One year ago, Notre Dame women’s basketball suffered a heartbreaking loss in the Sweet 16. The Irish literally and figuratively threw away their chances at reaching the Elite Eight with a last-second turnover that sealed a 66-63 loss to North Carolina State.

NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament primer: Upsets, dark horses and title picks

Aidan Thomas | Wednesday, March 8, 2023

The NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament is generally less prone to upsets than the men’s tournament. But as the depth and talent in the field increase the parity of the event, upsets are beginning to happen with more frequency. Just last year, four teams sitting on the 11 and 12-seed lines won their opening game. Two

Becker: Ionescu deserves more recognition for all-around dominance

Courtney Becker | Wednesday, February 20, 2019

The best all-around college basketball player this season doesn’t get nearly enough recognition for it. For those who don’t know who Sabrina Ionescu is, pay more attention.

Coming off a 50-49 win against then-No. 2 Louisville, the Seminoles (18-3, 6-2 ACC) looking for their first-ever victory over Notre Dame (20-2, 8-1),

O’Connell: Connecticut’s dominance makes game better

Brett O'Connell | Thursday, April 7, 2016

The Golden State Warriors are 69-9 on the season. Only a sparse handful of teams have been able to keep a close game with the phenomenal talent on their roster. I hate to punish them for being great, but they’re killing the NBA. Not that the Warriors shouldn’t try to win all of their games

We asked you to Ask The Observer Sports Department We asked you to Ask The Observer Sports Department and you responded with the request: “Northwestern @ Notre Dame 2014 Football Breakdown”. 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.
