Five Great Opening Games for ND Football

July 4, 2016 by Jimmy Grant

Notre Dame football has played 127 seasons, but for the purposes of determining the five best openers I'm going to limit my selections to the modern era. Here's the criteria I used: First, the game has to be against a quality opponent. Second, that team has to be from a major conference. Third, I cannot pick all the openers against Michigan. Fourth, it has to be a win. Fifth, the game has to be played after 1964, which I consider the start of the modern era. #5 Northwestern ...

Who Was The Greatest Irish Signal Caller In Modern History?

April 5, 2016 by Jimmy Grant

Ask 10 Notre Dame fans and you might get 10 different answers. Their opinion may be influenced by the player’s NFL performance or penalized for not living up to expectations. I’ve developed a simple and easy formula to determine who was the greatest quarterback in Notre Dame history (minimum 10 starts). I measure a quarterback by his completion percentage, his total yards, his yards per attempt, his touchdown percentage, his interception percentage and the number of fourth quarter ...

Tabling the Issue: How Does Everett Golson Do?

March 13, 2013 by Bayou Irish

One of the things I wanted to do this off season is see where Everett Golson fits in among his peers, and, thanks to the statistics nerds at www.und.com, I was able to pull all the data I needed (except for 1998) (WTH?) from the source, as it were. So, with a data-set of 21 years, I looked at each QB's Total Passing Yards (TPY), Attempts (Atts), Completions (Comps), Completion Percentage (%), Touchdowns (TD's) and Interceptions (INT's). To qualify, a quarterback had to start four games in a ...
