UW Game Preview
The matchup with UW is no longer the cupcake everyone expected. Sark has his boys playing much better, but their talent deficiencies, particularly along the lines (sound familiar?) and their lack of depth have hurt them thus far this season. … Continue reading
The Difference Between Us and Them
(Note: I changed the title of this post because it was annoying me. -dmq) ND is 3-1. All of the top-5 teams in the current polls are 4-0. And, really, after you’re done talking about Florida, Texas, and Alabama, you’re … Continue reading

Coming into the season, we all thought we knew what we had in our defense: A really, really solid backfield and some suspect parts of the front 7, mostly due to youth and inexperience. We were all very confident in … Continue reading

Irish Blogger Gathering: Cheez-its, People!
This week, Frank, over at the excellently designed, prolific UHND, asks the questions. We provide our answers below… The obvious question for the week, how does Notre Dame deal with the loss of Michael Floyd? What wide receiver steps up? … Continue reading
