Aidan Thomas | Friday, April 22, 2022

For those willing to recall the chaos that was December of 2021 for Notre Dame Football, the memory of Marcus Freeman’s recruiting efforts shine brightly amidst the turmoil.

Ward: ND wins big with eye-catching light show

Jimmy Ward | Friday, October 29, 2021

As a result, their fanbase can tend to react rather snobbishly to any sort of altercation or change that they see unfit. But

Adams: Forgoing Notre Dame’s next four football seasons

Hayden Adams | Monday, May 3, 2021

Recruiting. It’s the lifeblood of every legitimately successful college football program. Not to sound too much like Voldemort and his death eaters hyping up college football’s purebloods (i.e. recruiting dynasties), but don’t get me started on the half-bloods (i.e. developmental programs) or the mudbloods (i.e. USC and Michigan).

This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bou This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bouts will begin its preliminary rounds.

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.
