Brian Kelly Talks Win Over Boston College


One Last Time for Notre Dame's Class of 2020


This is what Notre Dame Stadium looked like -- forty-seven minutes after the 40-7 win over Boston College.  Members of Notre Dame's Class of 2020 were invited onto the field, along with the Fighting Irish who wore their Gold Helmets for the last time in the House That Rock Built.

Ranked Teams On Notre Dame's Schedule...


With just one game left on Notre Dame's 2019 football schedule -- I thought I'd take a look at all of the teams that have been ranked, at some point this season -- that the Fighting Irish have played...

TEAMS THAT HAVE BEEN RANKED -- SEVEN!

Here's the current Top 10 ranked teams -- and how many teams on their schedule that have been ranked:
  • LSU:  4 opponents; Texas, Florida, Auburn and Alabama
  • Ohio State:  5 opponents; Indiana, Michigan State, Wisconsin, Penn State and Michigan
  • Clemson: 2 opponents;  Texas A&M and Wake Forest
  • Georgia:  4 opponents; Notre Dame, Florida, Auburn and Texas A&M
  • Alabama: 3 opponents; Texas A&M, LSU and Auburn
  • Oregon: 4 opponents; Auburn, Washington, USC and Arizona State
  • Utah:  4 opponents; USC, Arizona State, Washington State and Washington
  • Penn State: 5 opponents; Iowa, Minnesota, Indiana, Michigan and Ohio State
  • Oklahoma: 3 opponents; Texas, Baylor and Oklahoma State
  • Minnesota: 3 opponents; Penn State, Iowa and Wisconsin 

So, if you hear anything about STRENGTH OF SCHEDULE, or NOTRE DAME DOESN'T PLAY IN A CONFERENCE or, NOTRE DAME DOESN'T PLAY ANYBODY -- use this ammunition.

Notre Dame Football on NBC Sports Network


If I wasn't going to the game -- this is the channel where I would be tuning in to for today's Boston College vs. Notre Dame football game.  NBC Sports Network will have a "Notre Dame" crew handling the broadcast...

You can watch this -- rather than listening to a BC grad (Flutie) and a Syracuse grad (Tirico) on NBC.
