Sánchez Córdova: A season of ‘what ifs’

José Sánchez Córdova | Friday, November 3, 2023

Watching Notre Dame football’s last two games, it’s easy to say that this year’s team is really, really good. Especially on defense, this team has looked like a national championship-level team. Unfortunately, they have lost two games, which, in the final year of the four-team playoff, means Notre Dame’s title drought will last another year.

Notre Dame football grades: Offense struggles to make big plays

Tyler Reidy | Wednesday, September 27, 2023

Irish fans, it’s time to rip the Band-Aid off. The wound of Notre Dame football’s walk-off loss to Ohio State may still be fresh for some of you, but the time has come to evaluate. In examining Notre Dame’s offense, which scored 14 points and left up to 17 on the board, plenty of good

Hartman, Notre Dame ready for season’s first marquee moment

J.J. Post | Friday, September 22, 2023

Sam Hartman will be the first one to tell you he’s not the star of Notre Dame’s 4-0 start to the 2023 season. In fact, he’d probably insist on it.  Every time the graduate student quarterback has faced the cameras this fall, he’s found new people to credit when asked about his success. Following his

ZeLO predicts CFP, bowl games

Thomas Zwiller | Tuesday, December 6, 2022

Clap. (pause) Clap. (pause) Clap. That’s right. I am slow-clapping for myself. Well, not for myself, but ZeLO. ZeLO’s prediction that the College Football Playoff (CFP) would result in Georgia, Michigan, TCU and Ohio State was spot on, largely because ZeLO favored Utah over USC in the Pac-12 championship. And when the scenario played out

Adams: Don’t trust Brian Kelly to get 2021 right

Hayden Adams | Thursday, January 14, 2021

2021 was always going to be a rebuilding year for Notre Dame on the gridiron. The Irish were going to lose at least three starters on the offensive line (now four with Aaron Banks declaring for the NFL), see two starters at wide receiver go, have to replace a sixth-year veteran and a fifth-year graduate

Ward: Take a deep breath before things get crazy again

Jimmy Ward | Friday, December 4, 2020

I won’t be the first person on planet earth to claim to know anything about how the College Football Playoff committee works. But in my gut I am fairly certain of one thing: Notre Dame makes the playoff no matter how sloppy their loss to Clemson in the ACC Championship. I’ll be ignoring plenty of

Zwiller: BIG news from the Big Ten

Thomas Zwiller | Monday, September 21, 2020

The Big Ten Football Conference announced that it would cancel its fall 2020 season on Aug. 11th, but after protests, a petition and even lawsuits, the Big Ten is back. The season will officially start on the weekend of Oct. 24th. The biggest reason for the Big Ten’s change of course is that they have

Ivey: Baker Mayfield should not apologize for his actions

Michael Ivey | Wednesday, September 13, 2017

On Saturday night, Oklahoma played Ohio State in a highly anticipated early season matchup between top-five teams. Much of the focus coming into the game was on Baker Mayfield, the All-American quarterback for Oklahoma and a Heisman Trophy favorite. Many wondered how Mayfield would perform in a hostile environment like Ohio Stadium. Mayfield didn’t disappoint.
