Notre Dame-Clemson Scheduling Agreement: Everything You Need to Know

Notre Dame has recently announced a 12-year home-and-home series with recent ACC rival Clemson, beginning in 2027. The Irish currently have a long-term deal in place with the ACC, facing between 5-6 conference opponents per season through 2037, but this new deal will likely see changes coming down the pipe. The agreement is technically not a 12-year contract, as Notre Dame was already scheduled to play the Tigers five times intermittently throughout its current ACC deal (2027, 2028, 2031, 2034,...

Ranking Notre Dame’s Top 10 Best Head Coaches of All-Time - #4

The 11-0 Irish earned a shot at the National Title, heading to the Fiesta Bowl to face #3 West Virginia. Both teams entered the matchup at their peak; the Mountaineers were the best team WVU had ever fielded, and the Irish brought a #1 ranking into a postseason bowl game for the first time ever. Notre Dame stunned the Mountaineers by scoring twice in the 1st quarter, once via an Anthony Johnson rush with a missed PAT, and the second on a 45-yard field goal. West Virginia only managed 2 FGs in th...

Notre Dame's NFL Footprint - Part 5

The paragon of consistency, Stanley appeared in another 15 games with over 1000 snaps in 2018, only missing a single game with an ankle injury. His consistency and performance over his first 3 years led to the Ravens picking up his 5-year rookie option for 2019. It’s a good thing they did, as Stanley showed out and appeared in 14 games with only four penalties allowed. He was named to his first All-Pro team and earned a spot in the Pro Bowl. Stanley’s performance blocking for Lamar Jackson and M...

Notre Dame's NFL Footprint - Part 4

The Chargers' new coaching staff decided to transition the defense to a base 3–4 and opened up the entire linebacking core to compete for their starting jobs. Even with the new opportunity, Tranquill was unable to win any of the 3 first-string spots and was once again named a backup linebacker. He eventually earned a few starts as injuries piled up, and he played incredibly well. However, he lost his momentum when he was sidelined with a chest injury, an ankle injury, and a positive COVID-19 tes...

Ranking Notre Dame’s Top 10 Best Head Coaches of All-Time - #5

Part 1 of our rankings began by defining the specific parameters that would be used to compare coaching resumes and the general requirements needed to be considered for the list at all. This process brought our pool of 30 coaches to a more focused top-10. Once the “National Championship” category was implemented, our top 10 list was split cleanly between the 5 coaches who had won a Title, and the 5 who hadn’t. While ranking positions #10-#6 wasn’t without its difficulties, the order of our top 5...

Notre Dame's NFL Footprint - Part 3

Mustipher went undrafted in 2019 but signed with the Chicago Bears before being cut shortly after. He then signed with Chicago’s practice squad. That’s where he remained until being called up to active duty in mid-October. Mustipher played 9 games and started 7 despite missing two weeks with a knee sprain. His first several appearances came on special teams, but once he proved himself, he earned offensive reps at center. While he’d finally broken through and earned consistent play, Mustipher’s a...

Notre Dame's NFL Footprint - Part 2

Hainsey was drafted in the 3rd round of the 2021 NFL draft with the 95th overall pick and signed a 4-year rookie contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He began the season far down the depth chart and out of the starting lineup but earned playing time relatively quickly by making the most of his chances. By season’s end, Hainsey had worked his way into the tackles rotation and appeared in 9 regular season games and 2 playoff matchups. If 2021 was his warm-up, 2022 was where he hit his stride. T...

Notre Dame's NFL Footprint - Part 1

Estime went to the Denver Broncos with the 147th overall pick in the 5th round of the 2024 NFL draft. He arrived at a loaded running backs room filled with Javonte Williams, Jaleel McLaughlin, and Tyler Badie, all looking to earn reps in the backfield. Estime made his first NFL appearance in the season opener against the Seahawks after playing all the preseason games. Unfortunately, he sustained an ankle injury and was sidelined for the next four weeks. He made his next appearance against the Lo...

Notre Dame’s Eventful Offseason Just Getting Started

On Tuesday, February 18th, Ja’Juan Seider of Penn State was officially named the new running backs coach for Notre Dame. Just over a month ago, Freeman and the Irish bested Seider and the Nittany Lions in the Orange Bowl, and all of a sudden, he’s joined the team. It wasn’t just the fact that Notre Dame was the destination, but this was a major assistant coach from a blue chip program that just went to the college football playoff - and had one of the best running back rooms in the country with...

Notre Dame’s 2024 Season - A Review and Reflection

For the first time all season, Notre Dame was forced to rely on their offense to stay in the game, trading shots with the Trojans from the jump. The Irish struck first with a rushing touchdown close to the end of the 1st quarter, but USC responded with a drive of their own to tie things up. The Irish scored again, this time through the air, and took their second lead of the game with less than a minute remaining in the half. Unfortunately, the Irish defense couldn’t contain the Trojans and surre...

Notre Dame vs. Ohio State - Everything You Need to Know

With all that said, it's truly been a tale of two seasons for Ryan Day and the Buckeyes. They began the year at No. 2, with expectations of a CFP run and another shot to beat Michigan. The midseason loss to Oregon hurt but was competitive and forgivable, yet the game’s aftermath was felt for weeks. OSU’s next two games were narrow and sloppy one-score wins over an unranked Nebraska and No. 3 Penn State before they found their stride again. Their 23-point win over Indiana looked lopsided but real...

Notre Dame vs. Penn State - Everything You Need to Know

It may be Miami, but the 2025 Orange Bowl will host a Snow Bowl reunion between the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame and the Penn State Nittany Lions. Although the series dates back to 1913, this is only their 20th meeting and their second matchup in the postseason. They faced off four times between 1913 and 1928 before taking a nearly 50-year hiatus. That break ended when Dan Devine and the Fighting Irish beat Joe Paterno and the Nittany Lions 20-9. Following that postseason game, the programs signed a 12-year home-and-home agreement that began in 1981.

Notre Dame vs. Indiana - Everything You Need to Know

Indiana’s 2024 Cinderella story began outside the top-25, with virtually no media attention. They only managed to crack the rankings after their 5th straight win, but they continued to dominate their weak competition until they headed on the road to face Michigan. While they did come out on top, Cignetti and his squad struggled for the first time, and in a game they should have handled confidently, only managed a 20-15 win. This is where grumblings began that Indiana may be the beneficiary of an...

12 Most Consequential Wins at Notre Dame Stadium - Part 2

A 4th FG wouldn’t help Notre Dame’s struggling offense, and a touchdown would only tie the score at 16: the Irish would need to score their first touchdown of the day and follow it with a 2-point conversion to win. After a 4 minute 61-yard drive, the Irish sat on the Penn State 3 yard line. It all came down to this - on 4th down with only 25 seconds left, down 7, Rick Mirer tossed a floater just over the line to Bettis for a touchdown, bringing the Irish within 1. Penn State knew what was coming...

12 Most Consequential Wins at Notre Dame Stadium - Part 1

Neither team scored in the 3rd, but the 4th quarter opened with a length of the field Notre Dame drive. Ratterman tossed a regular looking screen pass to Floyd Simmons, who followed his blockers and took it 50 yards into Trojan territory. That's when the Irish offense pulled off a true stroke of mastery. Now at the 8 yard line, Ratterman lined the Irish up in the “T-formation” and in a move that fooled both the Trojan defense and the entire home crowd, faked a handoff to the fullback before seam...

Notre Dame vs. USC - Everything You Need to Know

Unfortunately, it ended with a heartbreaking 1-point loss in the Cotton Bowl to No. 16 Tulane, and the Trojans finished their season at No. 12 in the polls. 2023 held even more promise for Riley and his Trojan squad, but their doom was a dismal defensive unit so bad their DC Alex Grinch was let go midseason after only 9 games and in only his 2nd year with the program. Notre Dame proceeded to spoil what was supposed to be USC’s CFP campaign in 2023, ending the Trojans’ 6-game win streak with a 48...

Notre Dame vs. Army - Everything You Need to Know

On the other hand, the Irish defense was stifling. They forced a turnover on downs, recovered a fumble, pulled in 3 interceptions, and held the Cavs scoreless - all in the first half. Notre Dame entered halftime with an imperfect but comfortable 28-0 lead.Notre Dame’s first drive of the second half ended with a Riley Leonard interception, but Jeremiyah Love saved the day on the next possession, ripping off a 76 yard touchdown run to put the Irish up 35-0. After putting in backup QB Tony Muskett,...

Notre Dame vs. Virginia - Everything You Need to Know

The Fighting Irish welcome the Virginia Cavaliers to South Bend this weekend for Senior Day and the final game of their 2024 home slate. This is only the 5th meeting between the two schools, and the Irish currently hold a 4-0 lead in the series. Their first matchup came back in 1989 at the old Giants Stadium at the Meadowlands, but they didn’t face off again until Notre Dame signed its scheduling agreement with the ACC. Since then, the Irish have played the Cavs in 2015, 2019, and 2021, but this...

Notre Dame vs. Florida State - Everything You Need to Know

This week, the No. 10 Fighting Irish play host to the 1-8 Florida State Seminoles for a 7:30 pm primetime showdown in South Bend. If the time slot for this matchup doesn't tip you off - this game was supposed to be a late-season clash between heavyweight CFP contenders, but it looks much different come game week. Instead of a chance to further build their playoff resume, Notre Dame will face a lose-lose situation; lose and their postseason dreams are done, or win anything other than a double-dig...

The Final Stretch - Notre Dame's Path to the College Football Playoff

The top 4 seeds going to No. 1 Oregon, No. 3 UGA, No. 4 Miami, and No. 9 BYU make sense as they’re all the current Conference Title favorites, with two of them undefeated and the other two with only 1 loss. Penn State’s loss to OSU pushed the Buckeyes up to No. 2 in the rankings, but that only earned them the No. 5 seed in the bracket, while Penn State dropped to No. 6 in the polls but earned the No. 7 seed. As the current No. 7 seed, the Nittany Lions would host the No. 10 seed Fighting Irish i...

Groucho's® Deli Origins
