Many contributed to Notre Dame's season-defining victory. But it was, in every sense of the word, a quarterback win. Here's why, as well as more final thoughts on the Miami game via @BGInews: on3.com/teams/notre-dame-fig…

Notre Dame men's basketball is off to a great start this season, but it now holds its breath as it waits for definitive word on sophomore center Tommy Ahneman (wrist). Why would Ahneman's absence be such a big deal? Details here, via @BGInews: on3.com/teams/notre-dame-fig…

Of the 15 CFP projections we surveyed, 14 placed Notre Dame somewhere between No. 4 and No. 6 after beating No. 1 Miami. Of course, that was also the case last week. Grab your nitroglycerin pills. Full list of projections here, via @BGInews: on3.com/teams/notre-dame-fig…

"We love playing man coverage, and we want to prove that we're better than the guy across from us." Notre Dame rediscovered its defensive identity. Play man, attack the QB and give the offense no room to breathe. Five thoughts on the win, for @BGInews: on3.com/teams/notre-dame-fig…

Luke Talich gave his two cents on this play after the game: "I felt like I got the ball out. Felt like he didn't have control of it." A game-saving swipe of the football that will go down in history. (via @Matt_Fortuna)

Marcus Freeman is here for his postgame press conference. "What a night. What a moment for this program, for this university."

FINAL: Notre Dame 31, Miami 24 They’re not gonna keep ‘em off the field tonight. The Irish are 8-1

Nolan James Jr.'s touchdown — and his monumental third-down conversion that preceded it — puts Notre Dame back in the driver's seat. 31-17 with 12:55 to play.

Marcus Freeman is fired up as CJ Carr jogs off the field. As he should be. What a throw and catch from Carr to Jordan Faison. Remember, Bryce Fitzgerald (No. 3 on Miami) is playing out of position. He's a safety, not a corner. Faison takes advantage. 10-0.

In the words of a famous Miami native: “We might not get tomorrow. Let’s do it tonight.” I’m here at Notre Dame Stadium, where the Irish are getting set to take on No. 1 Miami. The season is on the line in South Bend. Follow for updates and stories all night long, for @BGInews

The calm(ish) before the storm. I’m back at Purcell Pavilion, where Notre Dame women’s basketball opens its home slate against Stonehill. The Irish are coming off a decisive win over Villanova in Rome. Updates here for @BGInews

We've got a book signing this week! Bring your copy of our history book, The Gold Standard, or purchase one at Hammes Bookstore on Notre Dame's campus from 3:30-5 p.m. ET on Friday. @EHansenND and I will be signing them then. DMs are open if you have questions.

You know what? On some level, this might be just how Marcus Freeman wants it. Remove the ambiguity. No more of this "They could still get in at 10-2" nonsense. If BYU wasn't a wake-up call for Notre Dame, this sure as heck is. Column for @BGInews: on3.com/teams/notre-dame-fig…

Malachi Toney is out. What does that mean for Notre Dame? Well, it puts Leonard Moore back on the boundary. It minimizes the impact of DJ McKinney's injury. And it makes Miami's offense much easier to defend. Analysis for @BGInews: on3.com/teams/notre-dame-fig…

How can Notre Dame return to its roots on defense? It's bigger than man vs. zone, though that's part of it. It's playing on their terms, which we haven't seen from this group in a marquee matchup since '24. More in this week's mailbag, via @BGInews: on3.com/teams/notre-dame-fig…

We’re gonna have some fun on YouTube this week. We’re also gonna break down every possible angle as it relates to Notre Dame vs. Miami. You don’t want to miss this.

FINAL: Notre Dame 35, Navy 13 They figured it out in the second half, but there are no more mulligans for this team. You know what comes next. The Irish are 7-1.

Pretty cool moment: Jerome Bettis Jr. scored his first touchdown today. Read it again for those who don’t regularly follow Notre Dame: Jerome. Bettis. Jr.

No. 1 is coming to South Bend next week.
