Latest news and updates about the Notre Dame
As the calendar turns and we say goodbye to 2025, I’ve been thinking less about polls and playoff debates—and more about the moments that defined this Notre Dame season. Not rankings.Not selections.Moments. Here’s how I’ll remember the year: one defining play and one standout player from each of the 12 games. Week 1 at Miami […]
It’s ridiculous that this has come down to this, but the internet battle about the demise of the Jeweled Shillelagh Rivalry between Notre Dame and USC and the fallout surrounding it all, is continuing to rage. It’s all kinds of ridiculousness right now with Lincoln Riley and USC sycophants trying to rewrite recent history. It’s […]
Tis the season. In just a few days, the college football transfer portal will open and a key player from Notre Dame’s 2025 defense is throwing his hat in the ring. On Tuesday, Notre Dame defensive end, Joshua Burnham, announced that he will enter the transfer portal. Burnham arrived at Notre Dame as a freshmen […]
After a bit of a break; Joshua, Jude, and Brendan rip open the pod portal to break down all of the strange stuff surrounding the Notre Dame Football program over the past month. In this episode: And plenty more weaved in and out of the show. Please RATE and REVIEW! All reviews left on Apple […]
On Tuesday, ACC play starts in earnest with Florida State at UNC, Pitt at Miami, Louisville at Cal and Notre Dame at Stanford. Obviously there’s no way that Florida State should compete with UNC. FSU is in a serious rebuild while UNC has put together a pretty solid roster, not least of all up front […]
Happy New Years (early)! On Monday, Notre Dame head coach Marcus Freeman announced on X that he will return to Notre Dame to be the head coach in 2026. So that’s the good news. To be honest, I heard about a month ago that the contract extension was done and Freeman was locked into Notre […]
After years of rumblings, Notre Dame and USC have officially put their football relationship on break status. Since 1926, the two programs have met 93 times. The Irish led the series heading into the recently announced pause, with 51 wins. The Trojans had 37 wins and five of the matchups concluded with ties. The most […]
As we close the book on another Notre Dame football season, I keep coming back to one unavoidable conclusion: at the end of the season, Notre Dame was one of the best teams in the country. Hands down. This team lost its first two games by a combined four points. Four. Then they turned around […]
On Saturday it was reported that Notre Dame defensive back, Karson Hobbs, will enter the transfer portal. Hobbs had a rough start to the Notre Dame football season in 2025. While no single player can be blamed for either of Notre Dame’s two losses in 2025, Karson Hobbs’s dropped interception late against Texas A&M is […]
These words will sound familiar… Sometimes I think fans kind of glaze over the departure of offensive linemen. Regardless if the player is transferring or leaving for the NFL — it never really is met with as much concern as other positions. Maybe it’s because we look at the offensive line as more of a […]
The next edition of the Notre Dame vs USC rivalry will be upon us this weekend, and with it, we have to ask a very burning question. That question being- what bowl game are these two teams playing in the classic Christmas film ” Die Hard ?” Genuinely desirable bowl games, you know, the REAL […] The post In Die Hard, What Christmas Eve Bowl Game has Notre Dame vs USC? appeared first on The Sports Bank .
Merry Christmas! We know there is a lot going on this week with family time and watching USC grow the biggest yellow belly we’ve ever seen – but we also can’t forget one of our greatest traditions. Christmas Eve marks the 16th anniversary of Notre Dame’s 49-21 win over the Hawaii Warriors in the Hawaii […]
The transfer portal might be the biggest difference maker every year now in college football. Whether it’s players leaving or players arriving, the effect on every roster in the country is seen and felt throughout the season. Notre Dame is no different than anyone else in this regard, and we’ve seen the impact out on […]
It’s funny how funny things can be — even at the expense of yourself. Let’s run this timeline past you for a quick second: Notre Dame Football Announces Series with BYU SOUTH BEND, Ind. – The University of Notre Dame football team has announced that Notre Dame and Brigham Young University will play at Edwards Stadium […]
For all of the grief Notre Dame has received from different parts of the college football world for skipping a bowl game this year, it was all misplaced hate and a waste of time. That hate and time should have been reserved for Monday’s bombshell news that saw the end of the Jeweled Shillelagh Rivalry […]
Massive scheduling news dropped Monday morning as BYU announced a home-and-home series with Notre Dame beginning next season. BYU will host the Irish in Provo in 2026 and travel to South Bend in 2027. The release does not indicate exact dates for either game, although Yahoo Sports’ Ross Dellenger reports that next season’s game will […]
Sometimes I think fans kind of glaze over the departure of offensive linemen. Regardless if the player is transferring or leaving for the NFL — it never really is met with as much concern as other positions. Maybe it’s because we look at the offensive line as more of a unit than a “room” when […]
Well it’s Saturday and we just saw the Alabama Crimson Tide beat the Oklahoma Sooners on Friday night in the first game of the college football playoff while Notre Dame sits at home. Anways… the thread is open for the day’s action. Have fun.
The college football playoff is here and it hits quite a bit differently this year after Notre Dame got hosed by the committee in the final two sets of the playoff rankings — but I’ve already done that post. As I’ve said before, I am not doing a silly boycott of the playoffs (or the […]
On Thursday, the FWAA released its All-American team, and Notre Dame’s Jeremiyah Love and Leonard Moore were both listed as first team All-Americans. The FWAA was the last of the five services to publish its All-American team, and with it, Love and Moore are now Unanimous All-Americans. Love, Moore Earn Unanimous All-America Honors; Love, Moore, […]
If you’re anything like me, you’re probably still not over the screwjob that the college football playoff committee gave Notre Dame just a few weeks ago. The fact that the first round of playoff games start tomorrow, really only invigorates our disdain and disgust. I plan on watching every playoff game, and I really don’t […]
We are still on track for Notre Dame to have two unanimous All-Americans with Jeremiyah Love and Leonard Moore after the release of the Sporting News All-American teams today. An extra cherry on top was Jadarian Price’s selection as a first team kick returner. From the ND press release: Love, Moore, Price Named 2025 The […]
On Tuesday, Jeremiyah Love announced his decision to leave Notre Dame a year early for the NFL Draft, so it really comes as an act of mercy that one day later, Jadarian Price announced his decision to enter the NFL Draft with a year of eligibility left on the table. Notre Dame fans didn’t have […]
With Notre Dame’s 2025 college football season at an abrupt end, we can start to focus on roster management and the possibilities to come with NFL Draft entries and transfer portal transactions. Notre Dame’s recruiting class for 2026 is signed and set, and with the exception of the increased likelihood of 2027 QB Teddy Jarrard […]
The third All-American team that counts toward the “consensus” and “unanimous” selections just came out on Tuesday with the release of the AFCA All-American Team.
