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

Aidan Thomas | Monday, November 28, 2022

What happens when you put a longtime Maine resident in the driver’s seat with a New York passenger on Los Angeles highways? I don’t know. It all happened so fast.  Well, not really. It happened at the speed limit (or slightly below).  Our trio (Maine, New York and the poor Maryland resident witnessing the blend

Aidan Thomas – Sports Editor Notre Dame’s last two wins at USC came in 2012 and 2018, both propelling the Irish into the postseason. 2012’s win boosted the Irish to the BCS National Championship, while the 2018 victory sealed their spot in the College Football Playoff.

History of the rivalry: Irish, Trojans set to battle with major stakes

Aidan Thomas | Friday, November 25, 2022

There’s an argument to be made that Notre Dame-USC football is always appointment television. But when it’s a consensus top-15 matchup featuring a Heisman favorite, two teams with a combined 18-4 record and a Playoff spot on the line, it’s not even an argument. It’s a must-see game.  That, among more, sets the stage for

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.
