McGinley: Irish defense did not pass go to collect $200 — dual-threats did

Mannion McGinley | Monday, November 28, 2022

Notre Dame football has been a defense-oriented program for most of its history. From the Miami pass breakup in 1988 and the goal line stand in 2012, to this year’s BYU fourth down stop and the Clemson routing that featured both a pick-six and a blocked punt; there have been games won by the Irish

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

ZeLO: Overlooking the college football landscape

Thomas Zwiller | Friday, September 30, 2022

Whoever, you are, wherever you are, breathe. Feel better? After an insane four weeks of Notre Dame, there is a lull in the season courtesy of an early bye week. The Irish are at an unexpected 2-2 record, and with this bye comes a chance for both fans and the team to collect their breath

Penalty kick dooms Irish men’s soccer in 1-0 defeat

Aidan Thomas | Monday, September 26, 2022

The Irish entered Saturday night’s conference clash with North Carolina with a healthy dose of momentum. Eight days previously, freshman midfielder KK Baffour had scored at the death to deliver Notre Dame their first ACC victory, 2-1 over Virginia. Then, in a Wednesday non-conference battle, the Irish dominated and found the back of the net

Creating tiers of ACC women’s soccer

J.J. Post | Wednesday, September 14, 2022

Through seven games of non-conference play, it would be difficult to call Notre Dame women’s soccer’s season anything but a roaring success. The team has notched a perfect 7-0-0 record, with every win coming by a multiple goal margin. The defense has allowed just three goals across 630 minutes of play. And with ACC play

What we saw in week 1 of college football

Matthew Crow | Tuesday, September 6, 2022

After a far-too-long offseason (and a smattering of Week 0 matchups), college football is back, and with its triumphant return came everything we have come to know and love about the sport. A wild opening weekend featured upsets, dominating performances, nail-biting finishes, and several teams finding bizarre ways to win. Here are five of the

Zwiller: A UNC fan’s perspective on the Final Four

Thomas Zwiller | Monday, April 4, 2022

Every college sports program has an all-time rivalry. It is one of the few ways college sports are better than the pros. For me, the rivalries feel more authentic. Every school has a rivalry filled with iconic moments that make it unique.  For Notre Dame fans, one such moment might be the October 15th, 2005,

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.
