A Notre Dame Football Blog
Molly and I are back for another episode of HLS TV! This week, we discuss the trap game that was Notre Dame vs. North Carolina and if the performance is any cause for concern going forward. We also take quite a bit of time to dive into the huge #2 vs. #5 match-up this weekend as Irish Eyes turn towards Tallahassee and the Florida State Seminoles. Finally, I give a brief update on Savin' Aven, giving some much needed thanks to all the wonderful donors and friends that have helped spread the ...

Who To Watch USC at Stanford (Sat 3:30pm ET, ABC) Week 2 doesn't have much to offer, and your Saturday primetime is already booked with Notre Dame vs. Michigan, so I'll recommend a matchup of two future ND opponents.

The offseason is behind us. We have passed through the barren wilderness wasteland, and before us stretches the verdant Field Turf plain of lush college football goodness. Each week in this space, I'll keep tabs on 2014 Notre Dame opponents, their strength-of-schedule, and who they're playing. For those of who want to scout future opponents, or who just can't get enough college football, I'll take my best guess as to what you should watch when you're not watching Notre Dame Football. ...

You might think of them as a basketball school, but I promise you, this is a football team on the rise and one that might just give the Irish more trouble than you think. Previous Opponent Previews: Rice Michigan Purdue Syracuse Stanford Vitals Offense Those eight returning starters should immediately jump off the page. Those starters include a returning QB, ...
