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

Week 4 Notre Dame football grades: Offense continues to shine

Jon-David Regis | Wednesday, September 20, 2023

They started the game with a four-play, 94-yard touchdown drive and that ended with a 75-yard touchdown from graduate student Sam Hartman to sophomore Tobias Merriweather. That was just the beginning for the Notre Dame offense against Central Michigan. A big priority in football is consistency. You have to be able to show up every

Young receivers lead Irish into Ohio State showdown

Andrew McGuinness | Monday, September 18, 2023

In past seasons, Notre Dame was dependent on upperclassmen to carry their passing game. On Saturday, a trio of underclassmen wide receivers delivered in an exciting way that could translate into Notre Dame’s highly anticipated matchup with Ohio State. It’s not that Notre Dame hasn’t produced quality wide receivers in recent memory. In fact, the

Annika Herko | Saturday, September 16, 2023

Notre Dame moved to 4-0 Saturday with a 41-17 win over Central Michigan. The Irish struggled to find consistency but eventually pulled away with a strong second half. Here’s how it happened. 1.

Irish set the stage for Ohio State with inconsistent win over Central Michigan

Andrew McGuinness | Saturday, September 16, 2023

It’s generally not a great thing when a football game ends and all a team’s fans can think is “Thank God that’s over.” In fairness to Notre Dame, that sentiment is more a result of what’s to come than what occurred. The latter certainly has some kinks to work out, though. For all of the

Four key moments from Notre Dame’s 45-24 win over NC State

Matthew Crow | Saturday, September 9, 2023

It took more than five hours, but Notre Dame was able to overcome NC State — and the elements — with a 45-24 victory over the Wolfpack, improving to a 3-0 record. Here are four of the key moments that led to the Irish’s first true road win of the season. Both offenses start slow

Keys to the game: Tennessee State

Matthew Crow | Friday, September 1, 2023

After a dominant win in Dublin last weekend, Notre Dame football faces off against Tennessee State in its home opener Saturday. The Irish are overwhelming favorites against the first FCS opponent in program history. The game is unlikely to be competitive. But, in recent years, Notre Dame has not always been at its best when

Post: Irish receivers answered questions in week one, but one final piece remains missing

J.J. Post | Friday, September 1, 2023

This column was actually inspired by a question in this year’s inaugural Observer Sports mailbag, so thanks to whoever submitted it. Is [graduate student quarterback] Sam Hartman good enough to win big games with a still-unproven receiving corps? It’s a good question. One Notre Dame will need to have an answer for by the time

Observer sports staff predicts Notre Dame vs. Tennessee State

Jose Sanchez Cordova, J.J. Post, Madeline Ladd, Matthew Crow and Thomas Zwiller | Friday, September 1, 2023

Joche Sanchez Cordova, Assistant Managing Editor This game will be more interesting in the buildup and aftermath than it will be on the field. It’s a historic matchup and I’m glad Notre Dame are using their influence and the brand to give a big stage to a great HBCU (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) in

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.
