Super Skowronek Spurs Irish past Eagles

What was deemed a trap game by many, ended up being Notre Dame’s eighth win of the season and it was never in much doubt.  The Irish improved to 8-0 on the year after a 45-31 victory over the Eagles of Boston College.  What stood out most to me was the fact that (in my […]

Coming off a convincing win against Pittsburgh, the Irish are back on the road to take on the 2-4 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets this Saturday.  Will this mark Notre Dame’s sixth win on the season?  I sure hope so.  But when it comes to the score predictions, I’m about ready to give up.  Last week’s […]

Is Notre Dame’s Offense Broken?

Yikes.  Not the performance or outcome that any of us were expecting.  This past Saturday marked Notre Dame’s fourth win of the season but it was way closer than expected – a 12-7 win over the Louisville Cardinals.  Yes, the Irish moved up to number three in the nation after their win and Alabama’s beatdown […]
