The last time that Shane and I had to deal with a post-loss podcast was 2019. Sure, it's been over a year, but I feel we made up for lost time in this rant-heavy episode. Notre Dame drops the ball against Clemson. Army, everyone in the group of five, and everyone not a brand name in college football gets screwed by the committee. Fans deciding to chalk up a loss to Alabama weeks before the game is played. Yeah, it's all covered. This felt good. Come get your audio ...

HLS Recap (Text Edition): Soled Out
Loyal Listeners, you are (hopefully) wondering why your podcast feed is empty this morning. Because 2020 is still 2020'ing, Shane is still handling his situation that kept him out last week. I considered another solo episode, but I honestly didn't think I had a full episode worth of worthwhile content. Don't get me wrong, as you'll see below, there is a lot worth talking about, including some really hilarious peak college football. Without Shane though, if I'm going to riff by myself, the ...
Friday Roundup: The Trolling Michigan via Uber Edition
One of the things that I've enjoyed the most in the past couple of years here at HLS has been our focus on our crazy little community. Case in point: @frsorinramblers whom you will find on Twitter, our Discord, and our Twitch Channel. During our Hot Dog Bye Week podcast, this Loyal Reader revealed that he would spend his bye week Ubering around Ann Arbor during Army/Michigan weekend. Here's his playlist: For those keeping score at home, that's Army's Fight Song, The Irish Tenors, "Here ...
After Last Night, I See Only Four “Likely Wins” Left
We can now confidently conclude that the Texas loss was no aberration. It was not the result of a hostile crowd, an outmatched-but-inspired Texas team or some fixable defensive errors. Notre Dame is a deeply flawed team this year; last night confirmed that. It was almost hard to watch the Irish make huge errors on special teams, continue to play defense with the density of Swiss cheese and make questionable coaching decisions in a game they absolutely had to win. There was seemingly no ...
Morning Roundup: Sept. 12, 2016

Shamrock Series Uniform Revealed
This evening the Notre Dame football program revealed the Shamrock Series uniform, designed by Under Armour, that will be worn at this year's game in San Antonio, Texas. While last year's all green Shamrock Series uniform gave a nod to Fenway's "Green Monster," this year's olive green and gold uniform will pay tribute to military tradition and Notre Dame's opponent, Army. And, of course, another helmet gets added to the collection ... This year's Shamrock Series helmet ...
Scouting Report: Army
The first time Notre Dame and Army met, the Irish made history. This year, Brian Kelly's team is just hoping for an easy win against a once potent rival. The Irish and Black Knights meet Nov. 12 in San Antonio, Texas, as part of the Shamrock Series. MOVING THE GAME FORWARD Jesse Harper didn't invent the forward pass, but his 1913 Irish squad was the first to prove it could be successful against top flight talent. Harry Cross, covering the first Army-Notre Dame clash for the NY Times, ...
Friday Roundup: The “Running with the Devils” Edition
Let's face it, when Notre Dame faces off against the Arizona State Sun Devils in their full hellfire attire, the Irish will be facing off against one of the best offenses that they will see in all of 2013. As Bayou discussed yesterday, they have put on quite a show throughout most of their season. And I'm going to give the Sun Devils a load of credit here, they've looked pretty damn good doing it too for the most part. And with Arizona State favored by 6 at the time of this writing, it's ...
