A Notre Dame Football Blog
Post-Christmas and pre-New Year's would, generally sound like a time in which non-major bowl games would take place. College football, however, is a weird place. Half of the New Years Six, including both semifinal games, will take place in this period, plus Notre Dame's foray into the Camping World Bowl. There are some awesome matchups to dive into, so, after you are done with your holiday cheer, come join Eddie and I at the altar of GAMBLOR once again. #HAILGAMBLOR ...

So, in the spirit of the season, we want to make sure that you catch every single moment. Some of you, like yours truly, might be stuck working during some of these sublime exceptions. Others might need a friendly reminder during the hustle and bustle of the Christmas season of when it's time to take a ...

Yes, I probably should have gotten the bowl pick 'em up earlier; however, I blame two things: For whatever reason, Yahoo!, who we did the regular season picks with, took forever to announce they weren't doing a pick 'em this season.That whole Extra Life thing. But never fear, we have found a bowl pick 'em that features spreads and holds the confidence points (but, sadly everything has a hook). This year's pick 'em will be hosted over at CBS Sports and herloyalsons.com/pickem will forward ...
I wasn't planning on releasing a podcast. In fact, the interviews that you are about to hear were initially planned to debut during my 24-hour Extra Life marathon. But then Chip Long and Notre Dame decided to break up. In a happy accident, one of my guests, Ty Hildenbrandt of The Solid Verbal, already had a scheduled interview just a mere 24 hours after the news broke. So it seemed rather appropriate to get our thoughts on the situation in your podcast feeds ASAP with the added benefit of ...
The regular season has finally ended, the playoffs seeded, bowls assigned, and coaches shit-canned. Come join Shane and I as we discuss a rather chalky championship weekend, initial reactions to the bowl slate, the silly season, and Notre Dame's upcoming matchup against Iowa State in the Camping World Bowl. ...
We've finally hit the final week of regular season picks. After this, it's bowl season, but before we move to that chapter I have to find a way to pick up one more game on Eddie to finally beat him head-to-head. There's a lot of fun football on the slate and some final chances for chaos. Don't let the moment pass you by and join us at the altar of GAMBLOR one more time. #HAILGAMBLOR ...
Loyal readers, listeners, and fellow internet degenerates, today marks Cyber Monday, aka the day you actually shop because you are smart enough to avoid crowds and people in general. On this wonderful internet shopping discount day, you can support Her Loyal Sons as you get your Christmas shopping done for loved ones (or yourself). As you are likely aware, we have a few different outlets that we are affiliated with. With that in mind, we've highlighted some deals below for your convenience. ...
The final week of the college football season never disappoints. Notre Dame's easy win against Stanford certainly didn't raise too many eyebrows, but to be fair it's hard to compete against Ole Miss losing because of a dog urination celebration and Nick Saban losing due to have twelve men on the field. We have loads to discuss this week, including multiple coaches showing their asses in post-game pressers, finding the true definition of accepting mediocrity, and discussing the start of the ...
What, your copy of NCAA '14 looks different?
