Notre Dame's Men's Golf Team WINS AGAIN!

The 7th ranked Fighting Irish became the first team in the country to win four tournaments!  Notre Dame won the Quail Valley Collegiate Tournament in Vero Beach, FL yesterday!

That's the winning team with some of their parents in the championship photo -- above!

Notre Dame is now 66 - 2 on the season -- the best fall season in the history of our men's golf program!

In addition -- freshman star Palmer Jackson, won his first collegiate tournament -- posting a (-16) score for the three round tournament.  His birdie putt on the final hole gave Notre Dame a one-stroke victory in the team competition!!!

Notre Dame Moves Up to #8 in Both Polls

Well, this afternoon there is now seven teams between Notre Dame and a return trip to the College Football Playoff -- but, I believe it's really down now to; LSU, Oklahoma and the Fighting Irish for the fourth spot.

Here's the seven ranked ahead of Notre Dame today.

• Alabama
• LSU
• Clemson
• Ohio State
• Oklahoma
• Wisconsin
• Penn State

Now, we just have to finish ahead of four of these teams -- here's how this happens.

• Notre Dame wins out -- goes 11 - 1.
• There will not be three (3) Big Ten teams ahead of Notre Dame come the first week of December.  That eliminates at least two of these teams -- Wisconsin and Penn State.
• So, it comes down to two teams -- LSU and Oklahoma -- competing with Notre Dame for that final spot.  

LSU'S REMAINING SCHEDULE -- must lose two of these games...

•  @ Mississippi State  (3 - 3)
•  #11 Auburn  (5 - 1)
•  @ #1 Alabama  (6 - 0)
•  @ Mississippi  (3 - 4)
•  Arkansas  (2 - 4)
•  Texas A&M  (3 - 3)

OKLAHOMA'S REMAINING SCHEDULE -- loses big to Baylor or, is upset by Kansas State or Oklahoma State

•  West Virginia  (3 - 3)
•  @ Kansas State  (3 - 2)
•  Iowa State  (4 - 2)
•  @ #18 Baylor  (6 - 0)
•  TCU  (3 - 2)
•  @ Oklahoma State  (4 - 2)

And, we may need to see Auburn lose to Alabama -- because if Auburn beats LSU -- they will jump ahead of Notre Dame...
