Four-star Massachusetts offensive tackle Guerby Lambert joined Notre Dame’s next recruiting class just a day after four-star dual-threat quarterback Deuce Knight added star power to the Irish class of 2025.
Notre Dame leaned on an ultra-conservative approach against Ohio State last year. Led by the best pass defense in the country, expect the Irish to be more ‘attacking’ this weekend.
Saturday’s deep touchdown passes proved Notre Dame’s offense can attack defenses in all ways, a first for the Irish since ... well, it’s been a long, long time.
Sam Hartman connected on two touchdowns of more than 70 yards, and Irish running back Audric Estimé hurdled Chippewas defenders, but don’t overlook how strongly Notre Dame’s offensive and defensive lines controlled Saturday afternoon.
Notre Dame’s defense may have been caught looking ahead in the first half against Central Michigan on Saturday, but the Irish offense never faltered and that provided plenty cushion.
Notre Dame should be expected to blow out Central Michigan this afternoon on Peacock, but the last time the Irish thought that against a MAC foe, Toledo made life very tense.
Notre Dame has managed only four sacks through three games. That is not an Irish worry. It has, in some ways, been part of Notre Dame’s defensive plan and one that may be seen again against Central Michigan.
Marcus Freeman can do his best to set the record straight about Notre Dame’s rain-delay diet or try to keep folks from thinking ahead to Ohio State in two weeks, but the ‘Hollywood’ legend is already set, and the Buckeyes loom.
Notre Dame’s offense faced relative adversity on Saturday and responded with 42 points in three quarters. The Irish floor was raised as soon as Sam Hartman arrived in the winter, but how high has he raised the ceiling?
Saturday’s rain delay may have lengthened the game for fans, but it worked out perfectly for Notre Dame’s offense, needing that chance to regroup to explode past North Carolina State.
As soon as Notre Dame and North Carolina State returned from a nearly two-hour lightning delay, Irish running back Audric Estimé broke off the first of a handful of needed big plays for Notre Dame’s offense, an 80-yard touchdown run that set the tone for Notre Dame.
Notre Dame heads to North Carolina State as more than a touchdown favorite today. Can Sam Hartman conquer his Wolfpack demons to get the Irish to 3-0 this year?
Notre Dame and North Carolina State probably should never have played as scheduled in 2016, but the events of that 10-3 comedy should be laughed at to this day.
The Irish offense has poured in 91 points in the first two games of the season, but they have not been stressed in the slightest. That should change this weekend, giving an idea of what Notre Dame’s offense actually looks like.
Sam Hartman’s “Gladiator” rhetoric came about a quarter before it was most applicable, another two-minute drive highlighting Notre Dame’s offensive ceiling this season.
Quarterback Sam Hartman may be playing nearly perfect, but Irish head coach Marcus Freeman still found a flaw in his on-field showing in Saturday’s rout of Tennessee State.
Notre Dame scheduled itself into a box when it chose to go to Dublin to open the 2023 season. Hosting an HBCU opponent solved that scheduling riddle and created a purpose to an Irish first.
