A Notre Dame Football Blog
This weekend I'm rolling both solo parenting and solo on the pod. With Shane out on a trip, the sim and the chat serve as my co-host. The past couple of weeks this sim has had some insane moments of prophecy and I look for that to continue this week. I actually spend some time during this virtual fever dream trying to figure out exactly what those moments might be. I spend even more moments dancing to Epic Sax man. Trust me, this all makes sense. It's perfectly normal. ...
Y'all, it's finally time for college football to take off. With the calendar fully settled into November, we find ourselves with a loaded slate this weekend. The first college football playoff rankings are out. We have a top five game. We have multiple top 25 games. We have teams with fired coaches. We have teams with soon-to-be-fired coaches (hi, Southern Cal!). You've had a couple months to prepare for this insanity. Eddie and I are ready and at the altar of GAMBLOR as always. Come join ...
Notre Dame at Duke, unfortunately for some cable/dish subscribers, will be on the ACC Network, effectively blacking out some Irish fans. While I would certainly encourage you to connect with a local alumni clubs or hit up a sports bar, I understand the desire to want to watch in the comfort in your own home. So with that in mind, I wanted to throw something together as a resource for folks that haven't jumped into the cord-cutting world. The big bonus is that pretty much everyone has a free ...
A bad win is always better than a bad loss, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't take a hard look at how Notre Dame gave us all a heart attack this past Saturday. Plus, we had a far amount of crazy go down this week, especially in the Group of Five. Come start your week off with Shane and I as we take a look at everything that went down as college football enters the all-important month of November. ...
Running the sim on Halloween seemed like a disaster waiting to happen. After all, it predicted, with far too much accuracy, the hell that awaited Notre Dame in Ann Arbor. However, this time around, dare I say it gave us hope?! Also in this episode a bit of chatter about name, image, and likeness rights for college athletes, plus an iTunes review that I somehow missed for over a month! ...
I think Notre Dame may have broken Eddie, but that's not going to stop our weekly visit to the altar of GAMBLOR. All of a sudden we are in the final month of the season and the only thing that will make us sadder than a game up north that shall not be named will be when this is all over. So we shall attempt to savor it and move forward. Even if it hurts. Plus, I have a three game lead on Eddie and, dammit, I'm finally going to win one of these years. #HAILGAMBLOR ...
I hope everyone gets a chuckle from the cold open. There's definitely not a whole lot of room for any other laughs in this episode after Notre Dame finds themselves absolutely embarrassed in Ann Arbor. Right off the bat, Shane and I deem this loss the worst of the Brian Kelly era. There's no sugar-coating it. This episode is probably less than a pod, but more of an hour-long therapy session on trying to deal with this. So come join us and try to start the healing--or come listen and get ...
What, your copy of NCAA '14 looks different?
Remember every nightmare that you had as a Notre Dame fan about the 2011 Under the Lights game. Well, do we have a sim for you! (I'm sorry.) (But the chat went hard in the paint with the new ability to play drops and that makes it all worth it!) ...
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. For those of who want to scout future opponents, I'll give you my recommendation for who to watch when you're not watching Notre Dame Football. Who To Watch Navy (5-1) vs Tulane (5-2), Sat 3:30PM ET on CBS Sports Network ...
We've finally arrived a Michigan hate week after the bye. While the hate is absolutely flowing through Eddie and I, we due our due diligence and visit the altar of GAMBLOR as we do every week. This slate is LOADED. Oh, and there's potential for blood week in the waters as well. It's gonna be a fun weekend. Come get your degenerate on and preview what's to come this weekend with us! #HAILGAMBLOR ...
