Seriously, ND isn't in a bad spot. Listen to Mr. Day.
No, this will not be a post that will excuse Notre Dame for a rather terrible performance on the road against Arizona State. No team should turn the ball over five times and expect to win against a ranked team. Period. Beyond the turnovers, Arizona State put a hell of a game together, consistently putting pressure on Golson, notching seven sacks and giving him happy feet the whole game. In the first half, Arizona State ran at a totally different speed than the Irish defense that looked ...
It's rare that the IBG gets a bye this early in the season, but the rest is quite welcome. Three games is a good sample to look on what Notre Dame football has done and what is still to come. As a reminder, the IBG members (comprised of NDNation, UHND.com, The Official ND Blog, and The Subway Domer) will each ask a question to the panel. We will answer our questions three four and link everyone's answer to our questions. Let's get to it! My question (you might remember this from my ...
After attending Notre Dames awesome shutout performance against Michigan, both Molly Moran and I are back with another episode of HLS TV. Included in this episode is about thirty minutes of us being downright giddy about the result, raving about Notre Dame's performance, and fighting through technical difficulties that I had to edit out. Seriously, Google+, why do you hate HLS so much? WHAT DID WE EVER DO TO YOU?! Anyways, let's revel in Michigan despair because the 24 hour rule doesn't ...

Ever the politician, a plaid-suited Brian Kelly sidestepped a question ripe for opposing locker room material. Sure, the end of the Michigan series has opened the door for some very exciting future games for Notre Dame football, but he wasn't about to proclaim it a "good thing" and provide Michigan with additional motivation. Instead, Kelly called future games with Texas and Georgia the "silver lining" of no longer having Michigan on the schedule. Afterward, he looked to the eager press ...
Once WatchND started pumping out Notre Dame football fall camp practice videos, I was all in for breaking each one down. It worked great for the first two practices, but then practice #3 happened and saw the video breakdown was a position profile for the CBs. Don't get me wrong, the feature was great, but a basically started at my title of "Fall Camp Practice Report #3: CB Report" for about an hour and realized there was no way that I could even drag 100 words out of the topic. So I passed ...
After a successful signing day, Brain Kelly still had one more scholarship available for the 2014 season. That spot has now been filled by Cody Riggs, a Flordia graduate transfer. The defensive back brings some much needed depth and experience to a secondary that can certainly use it; however, I'm more impressed with the outlook of the program overall. And it isn't just hitting the 85 scholarship cap either. The class of 2015 has a minimum of 11 scholarships available and that's ...
