Notre Dame is celebrating spectacular individual performances, dramatic victories and promising football developments.
But amid all the excitement, heartbreaking news has cast a shadow over the Fighting Irish community.

“I’m actually being serious”
Sir you are either the dumbest person to ever walk the face of the earth or you are definitely not being serious.
This is surprising and heartbreaking, obviously especially for Dan's family
Notre Dame lost one of the familiar voices connected to its football Saturdays.
Dan Hicks’ remarkable career stretched from the Irish to golf and the Olympics, but the tributes pouring in make clear his impact went far beyond the broadcast booth.

The CFP just announced rules designed to push major programs toward tougher schedules.
One day later, Florida found a way out of playing Notre Dame.
That makes all the usual criticism about the Irish schedule look a little different.

Me when coaches who screamed "JOIN A CONFERENCE" at Notre Dame are suddenly asking what the point of conferences is in the new 24-team College Football Playoff world.
Notre Dame is making noise in more ways than one. A dominant performance, major playoff developments, national recognition, and changes on the horizon have given Fighting Irish fans plenty to talk about.

Marcus Freeman could have danced around the question.
Instead, he admitted exactly what everyone already knows: a 24-team playoff gives Notre Dame more room for mistakes — and he’s perfectly happy to take it.

This is a small thing but the ACC Network announcer calling the Notre Dame game just said that Eastern Illinois is playing it's third straight Power 4 opponent and "Power 4" is not a thing in college basketball.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Notre Dame’s special CFP protection is disappearing.
That sounds like bad news until you look at what replaces it.
A 24-team field and new scheduling rules may actually leave the Irish in a stronger position than before.

Why was Sarkisian even asked this question?

The big losers in the 24-team college football playoff are the bowls (which will all but die starting next year)
And FCS teams, who factor in paydays to lose into their budgets every year and will now see those opportunities cut in half at least.

I'm about as far away from a Michigan fan as one can be, but Kyle Whittingham not knowing that Ohio State is a pretty big game left on the schedule is absolutely insane

Kyle Whittingham on keeping Michigan motivated for its last 3 games:
"It's my job as a coach to rally them back up and get them ready to compete for these last three games. ... I don't know, are there any more trophies in these last three games? I don't think there's any more trophies. Anyway..."

Mario Cristobal opened his postgame press conference by questioning the call that helped end Miami’s comeback.
Then he suggested Miami knew what kind of officiating it would get in South Bend.
There’s one rather inconvenient detail about that argument.
