Latest news and updates about the Notre Dame
Upon hearing the news Sunday night, I texted my football frenemy Bookstore. “Sayonara Brian Kelly.” “So long F-Bomb.” The dude is often not subtle with his barbs. “54 million. No problem. Three weeks in a row big time coach fired,” replied moi. “But not Kentucky or Wisconsin,” he retorted, citing his two alma maters, having […]

Notre Dame is coming off of a bye weekand is currently ranked #12 in the country with a 5-2 record. The Irish know that they need to be as dominant as they can be in their final five games of the season to help make a lasting impression with the college football playoff committee. Ever […]
Notre Dame got off to a rough start in 2025, but they looked like they fixed a few things in a 56-30 win over the Purdue Boilermakers and then the 56-13 win on the road against the Arkansas Razorbacks. They followed those two victories with two victories which covered massive spreads in a 28-7 win […]
The Notre Dame football team sat back this past Saturday and ate their cheeseburgers during their final bye week of the season. In a weekend of mostly “meh” matchups, the final results once the clock went sero were also mostly “meh” as well. Don’t get me wrong — I found Saturday to be highly entertaining, […]

As we are all set and ready to enjoy a Notre Dame Football bye week (also known as the cheeseburger bye week) the noise surrounding things OTHER than the college football playoff is starting to get turned up a notch or two. One of those things is the Heisman Trophy, and a name that is […]
It was, again, another tough week, this time 3-7, thanks to some bad luck in a few games. I got hooked by the USC-Notre Dame game, and Tennessee had what appeared to be a touchdown that would have hit the over called short of the end zone in the final seconds. But can’t stop, won’t […]
This week’s Throwback Thursday takes us back to the South Side of Chicago and the spirit of Lou Holtz’s first Notre Dame team — where lessons in trust, love, and commitment became a way of life. Few embody those values better than Frank Pinn (’89), a former walk-on turned team leader, record holder, and business […]
Joshua, Jude, and Brendan fought through the joys and perils of fatherhood to sit down to talk about Notre Dame Football. We’re low on show notes this week, but mostly we fight about… Plus the OFD/Earned 5-Star Top 20 and our weekly game picks. Our beautiful baby boy Greg takes us out. Please RATE and […]
Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock for the last two years… the Notre Dame vs USC rivalry game is in jeopardy of ending as a yearly game in South Bend and Los Angeles. Saturday night’s game inside Notre Dame Stadium was the last scheduled game between the two programs, and there has been plenty […]
Notre Dame VS USC was billed as the last real test on the Irish schedule by a number of media pundits. While I find fault with that statement, the game was still the biggest game left on the schedule — and Notre Dame played that way through the uncertainty and the rain. So what did […]
Despite all of the joy and dominance on the field Saturday night in Notre Dame’s 34-24 victory over USC, one of the few bad things to come out of the game is that Irish offensive lineman, Billy Schrauth, will miss multiple weeks with a knee injury. The captain from Wisconsin was having a dominant performance […]
What a win. Hopefully the Notre Dame Fighting Irish have the chance to continue one of the greatest rivalries in college athletics with the USC Trojans after this season. But for now, the Irish came out on top in the last scheduled game for now. What a day it was with a lot of weather, […]
Notre Dame kept the Jeweled Shillelagh safe at home after Saturday night’s 34-24 win over the USC Trojans. Notre Dame rushed for over 300 yards, and kept what was statistically one of the best offenses in check for most of the night. Here is a gallery of some of the best images from a night […]
Another season, another stressful USC game. Me and some close alum friends had very nostalgic moments in the text threads mulling about whether or not the Irish were going to pull off the big win or serve us up another rivalry heartbreak. Fortunately, it ended well for the program and us personally. Notre Dame finished […]
The Notre Dame football season is up and running — and we’re already putting holes in walls. Despite the loss in Miami, and against Texas A&M, the Irish still have a chance to bring home its 23rd national championship. The gang here at OFD is still pretty pumped to give you the best overall coverage […]
Notre Dame got off to a rough start in 2025, but they looked like they fixed a few things in a 56-30 win over the Purdue Boilermakers and then the 56-13 win on the road against the Arkansas Razorbacks. They followed those two victories with two victories which covered massive spreads in a 28-7 win […]
Notre Dame was first pushed and then kicked off of the mountain with its 0-2 start to the Miami Hurricanes and Texas A&M Aggies. Just as the Irish did last year following the loss to Northern Illinois, Notre Dame has continued to beat down its opponent to claw its way back up the rankings mountain. […]
We were told (or were telling) that Notre Dame VS USC was going to be a wet and wild night, but the wait throughout the day and into the storming hours of the afternoon put a little bit more tension in the air for a game that was as high stakes as you’ll find during […]

I will be watching college football again today. There should be some really good games on, including Ole Miss at Georgia. Notre Dame vs USC could be interesting. For the Big Ten, there’s Michigan versus Washington, Penn State versus Iowa.
Friday night was eventful, and we have ourselves a deep slate with plenty of potential for chaos today. Multiple quality matchups in every window.

It feels like we’re all just trying to get through the week as we eagerly await Saturday night’s prime time game between the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and USC Trojans. It’s the Battle for the Jeweled Shillelagh and every factor going into the game counts — especially if there’s going to be inclement weather. So […]
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are climbing up the rankings and are now ranked #13 in the country following their 36-7 win over NC State. The Irish will host #20 USC in the Battle for the Jeweled Shilellagh. Much has been made this week about the future of the seris, the incoming rain bomb, and […]
