A Notre Dame Football Blog
via GIPHY Did I ever introduce myself the first time? I'm a placeholder persona for the zany intersection of the general college football landscape and the very particular ethos residing under the Golden Dome. My first act on this glorious site stemmed from the belief that Twitter was the World's Best Sports Bar and sent #HLSrecap careening down the tracks to a land of lost productivity. To paraphrase the sage football pundit Ron Burgundy, "Sixty percent of the time, I'm serious every ...
Who will claim permanent Internet victory? We Never Expected This ....is what the Hessians in Trenton said on Christmas Morning 1776. This was my 8-seed, but @ND_Phil has demonstrated his prowess repeatedly with this entry. This first made the cut into the Notre Dame Magazine, and now he's poised to take home the title hardware* with one more victory. Like the Continental Army, he was an underdog going up against superior competition, but like Brian Kelly on 2nd and short, defies ...
Elite 8 #BKhomeboy Bracket Welcome to the Big Show Out of my 64 initial selected images, we're now down to eight. Fortunately or unfortunately, The Internet At Large agrees with my top-tier selections, because FIVE of the remaining 8 submissions had a 1-seed or 2-seed designation. Not too shabby. Neck Pillow Region: "Sideline Quartet" vs. "South Dining Hall" Your overall #1 seed, submitted into the Twittersphere by Chris Finke during the Navy game, received the most number of votes ...
Sweet 16 #BKhomeboy Bracket Mostly Chalk After so much early chaos (that's half the fun, right?) in the early rounds, we have a remarkable Sweet Sixteen: Three 1-seedsAll four 2-seedsThree 4-seeds But outside of this, we have some fun: two 12-seeds, a 13-seed, and a 14-seed. Dark Socks Region: Pop Culture and College Football We have a 1 vs. a 4 here, with a lovely shirtless man reading a book instead of watching Florida State get blown out. We also have supergroup Brockhampton ...
Second Round #BKhomeboy Bracket Round 1: Upset City We saw eleven underdogs advance to the second round, including one 16-seed - Bridget's timely St. Patrick's Day image carried the day, and perhaps appropriately so since a meme that began in October is still getting airplay in March. 5-Seeds Beware Three of the 12-seeds advanced to the second round, so kudos to "Where's Waldo" for playing hard-to-get and making it through. That means the dangerous 12-seeds (the preview image was ...
It’s February, that time of year that we live through Polar Vortex attacks and ice storms. Days begin to get slowly longer, though they generally remain dark and dreary, a continuous reminder that there is still at least six weeks of winter remaining, and that the football season is nothing but a distant memory. It is in this hour that we turn to happy and enjoyable times, like Valentine’s Day. And what would a day devoted to love be without poems and rhymes? This community of ours is nothing ...
Each week in this space, we examine two things: Notre Dame's strength of schedule (from USA Today's Sagarin rankings), and who Irish opponents are facing.
