No big deal, just a 12 foot long jump wearing football pads while clearing another human being.

- A reminder the current College Football Playoff projections have Notre Dame hosting Alabama here one month from today.Light dusting 💚
- Still don’t understand how Jeremiyah Love did this.
- I don’t watch Marcus Freeman take the field from ground level every week. But this felt different from the start.
- As Trevor Lawrence walks into Notre Dame Stadium, a collection of Clemson fans chant “J-E-T-S Jets Jets Jets!”
- Multiple sources indicated that Brian Kelly’s address to the team on Tuesday morning lasted less than two minutes, then he turned around and walked out. He did not take questions from the players.
- Marcus Freeman now has as many Top 5 wins in his first season as Brian Kelly had in all 12 seasons at Notre Dame.
- Just now Brian Kelly messaged Notre Dame’s roster in Team Works that “I will be leaving Notre Dame.” The plan is for Kelly to meet with the team tomorrow at 7 a.m. Here is the full message
- FINAL: Notre Dame 27 Penn State 24 Marcus Freeman has led Fighting Irish to the national championship game in one of the gutsy performances I've seen from his program in 24 years on the beat. What a game to witness.
- Source: LSU head coach Brian Kelly reached out to Notre Dame defensive coordinator Marcus Freeman on Monday in an effort to bring him to Baton Rouge. Kelly would intend to make Freeman the highest paid defensive coordinator in college football.
- What a career for Ian Book. Finished 30-5 at Notre Dame’s starter, the most wins by a QB here ever. Two starts in the College Football Playoff. Led three 10-win seasons, pulled a bowl victory out of nowhere as a sophomore. And once played through fractured ribs. Tip of the cap.
- It must be said. A little weird Notre Dame’s regular season schedule got easier by joining a conference, no?
- Jeremiyah Love: "We went out and played like the dogs that we are. We ain’t no little dogs, we’re big dogs. They was the little dogs today. Little cats. Whatever you want to call them."
