Zwiller: ZeLO’s CFP Rankings and Week 11 Picks

Thomas Zwiller | Friday, November 11, 2022

After a weekend of significant upsets (yes, I am counting No. 3 Georgia defeating No. 1 Tennessee as an “upset,” even though Georgia was a 10-point favorite), the playoff picture got much clearer. Alabama, it would seem, is officially out of the playoff race as they no longer control the SEC West and are a

Masin-Moyer: Predicting championships for three teams

Lucas Masin-Moyer | Thursday, April 25, 2019

In what is the first of many lasts in my final few weeks as an undergrad here at Notre Dame, today I’ll be submitting my last-ever Observer Sports Authority. So I figured there’d be no better way to end my sports-writing career than by writing about the three teams that have occupied pretty much every

Joe Andrews | Thursday, March 28, 2019

A group of 19 men who make up the Notre Dame men’s ultimate frisbee team, pulled off a major upset, defeating heavily favored No. 8 University of Central Florida while running around in Lowe’s construction tool belts with frosted tips over spring break. “We beat them while having a lot more fun than them,” senior Connor Buckley,

Kolakowski: Welcome to March — madness not included

Ryan Kolakowski | Tuesday, March 26, 2019

A missed free throw by the jewel of college basketball allowed one of the game’s biggest juggernauts to collect an offensive rebound and force home a game-winning layup to steal a victory in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.

Greason: Forget UCF, Notre Dame continues to prove it is the real deal

Elizabeth Greason | Saturday, November 17, 2018

This week, University of Central Florida junior quarterback McKenzie Milton said, “You can’t tell me Notre Dame is a better team than us.” Well, after watching the No. 3 Irish (11-0) absolutely trounce the No. 12 Orange on Saturday, I can say that I definitively believe Notre Dame is a markedly better team than the

Masin-Moyer: UCF, others outside the power five are overlooked in rankings

Lucas Masin-Moyer | Monday, October 8, 2018

After six weeks of college football, 11 teams remain undefeated. Among these teams, you’ve got perennial juggernauts No. 1 Alabama, who are beating up unranked, below-average teams like they do every year; a high-flying No. 6 West Virginia team who has succeeded on the back of perhaps the best quarterback in the country — Will

Masin-Moyer: By giving underdogs opportunities, March Madness proves itself superior

Lucas Masin-Moyer | Wednesday, March 21, 2018

Sure, there’d been some impressive tweets directed at UMBC Athletics

Masin-Moyer: UCF deserves recognition as this year’s national champion

Lucas Masin-Moyer | Thursday, January 25, 2018

In what has become an increasingly rare occurrence over the past nine years, the University of Alabama did not win the college football national championship. I mean sure, they brought a trophy back to Tuscaloosa, Alabama, after a thrilling win over Georgia on Jan. 8, had a big parade and celebrated with all the pageantry

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.

A glance at the ballot suggests that this year’s candidates all appear to be human and pro-democracy. This observation may seem obvious or nonsensical, but a look back at the history of SBP elections shows that pro-democracy ideals or even personhood are not characteristic of all candidates.
