RIP broadcast legend Dan Hicks.
So many iconic Olympic and memorable Notre Dame calls. One of my favorites in an industry I follow closely.
Prayers to his family.
Monster game in Goshen for the Mustangs tomorrow!
Plenty at stake and I’ll leave it at that!
Need the community to rally and provide a big home field advantage!
For those who can’t attend, North Oldham 🏈 Network has you covered!
#WinOrGoHome

Head coach @BDRoberts20 has been named the 2026 @GLFCA1 Coach of the Year!
Roberts has the Mustangs on a school record 10 game winning streak, led North to its second straight Class 4A District 3 title and its highest RPI (5th) finish in program history.
5th was the best case scenario for ND this week and Irish fans should be content if that’s the way it holds rest of way.
You’re one spot from a bye or holding the most convenient route teams seeded 5-12.
Very good spot to be.
For those keeping score over the last calendar year:
- USC runs from a century long rivalry with Notre Dame
- Hoosiers run from a previously scheduled future series with Irish
- Florida cancels future series with ND today
These aren’t “join a conference” lines in the sand by these programs. This is cowardly running.
ND doesn’t back down from hard scheduling. They intentionally try, and the big names run scared
Wisconsin:
Losses to 9-0 UCLA, 8-1 Notre Dame, and 7-2 Iowa
Best Win: 7-2 USC
LSU:
Losses to 7-2 Alabama and Kentucky, and 6-3 Ole Miss
Best Win: 5-4 Auburn
Hey @ReceDavis. Tonight, could you please ask @HunterYurachek which team ranked ahead of ND has a better signature win than @NDFootball? And if he mentions the “controversial call“ in the end zone, could you please point out that the end of the BYU game was confirmed as controversial?
Do not let him off the hook with his Word salad garbage. Make him produce some logic to the rankings.
Updated stats on who I would consider to be the Top 7 candidates for @KYHighFootball 2026 Mr. Football as we enter Round 2 of the playoffs.
A reminder that only 1 winner in the past 11 years has played for a team who lost before Round 3 and that 9 of past 11 winners have made at least the Final 4.
@insightedge12@CFBPlayoff Check the bio and my feed brother. I’m as pro Irish as it gets 😂
We’re not going to have to imagine much longer - I’m predicting this is the reality tonight thanks to the Irish hating & SEC loving committee
My prediction for @CFBPlayoff rankings Tuesday night:
1. Georgia
2. Utah
3. Bama
4. Texas
5. Indiana
6. UCLA
7. ND
8. Tennessee
9. Miami
10. Texas Tech
UK and Wake in the mix for that 10 spot, but Cats LSU win is aging poorly and all of a sudden their resume is gripping to South Carolina continuing to win.
Not exactly how I’d line em up, but best guess at reading that inconsistent committee
@snickersigl@CFBPlayoff Indiana will get jumped by another ranked win for Texas. You know the committee will salivate over that. ND should jump them too…but we also know the committee hates ND’s independence and won’t reward as strongly as they should
ND fans should be satisfied landing anywhere between 5-7 tonight with this committee.
Sure to be frustration with a team or two in front (like Indiana 😑), but logically there is no explanation for anything lower than 7 by the bar set by the committee 7 days ago
Difficult to track this with 100% certainty, but I believe @OwenConley2030 is the 2nd ever @NOHSFball freshman in history to earn 1st Team All-District honors.
He joins @LucasTompkins5 (WR - 2022) as only two Mustangs to ever accomplish the feat
How about that Mustang O-Line?!
Four 1st Team selections: @harrison_mcgraw, @W_Sequeira1, @OwenConley2030 & Castle
Tolle Honorable Mention.
Big guys have helped Mustangs to nearly 8 yards per play and 40 points per game.
3x All-District for H
2x All-District for Willie
Immediate 24-team CFP thoughts
- On-campus playoff games are electric. Having more is a win for the sport.
- The week-to-week intensity and magnitude of games takes a big step back. What’s separated CFB as best in all sports is the importance of its regular season. People will still be passionate and care, but the magnitude of games take a hit.
- As much as I’ve disliked the committee’s constant moving of goalposts, the short 12-team era has been awesome. I think 12 is still the right number. Not looking forward to the debates between 9-3 B1G vs. 8-4 SEC vs. 10-2 ACC/Big 12 teams
With 24 All-District selections for @NOHSFball this season, @BDRoberts20 and the Mustang coaches have produced 60 All-District selections (and 2 titles) in 4 seasons in Goshen!
All-District teams were selected by Class 4A District 3 coaches this evening and the Mustangs landed a school-record 24 players across 28 positions on the All-District Team!
Offense: 9 1st Teamers, 2 honorable mention
Defense: 10 first teamers, 2 HM
ST: 5 1st teamers
Timothy has been as savage of a ND hater as I’ve seen on here the last two years.
His self-awareness is both striking and respected by this Irish fan today.
If I see another Miami fan saying we got “robbed” I’m gonna go BALLISTIC
First: Let’s say the refs give us a TD on that play. Do we win? NO: We tie the game. Then, we kick it back to Notre Dame, who had absolutely torn our defense apart all night. All they need is a FG to win it. We all rightfully laughed when FSU fans said they were “robbed” against us on a play that, at best, would’ve only tied the game. IT’S THE SAME THING HERE!!! If you think Miami was robbed, then so was FSU!
Second: WE PUT OURSELVES IN A 24-3 HOLE. IT IS SQUARELY OUR OWN FAULT for being in a position where we need refs to call a TD on a play where a defender knocks the ball out of a receiver’s hands. THE O-LINE WAS DOMINATED ALL NIGHT. THE D-LINE COULD NOT GENERATE A PASS RUSH. THE DBs AND LBs CANNOT COVER. THE OFFENSE FAILED TO GET IN THE ENDZONE WITH A FIRST AND GOAL ON THE 1 AND ABOUT 8 DOWNS THANKS TO PENALTIES. Our “Heisman” QB had 70 yards at halftime and threw a rookie-level INT that completely derailed our comeback.
We did not get ROBBED. We were thoroughly outplayed in every phase of the game.
This was with ND’s two starting DTs down by the way.
Irish D-Line was still the best unit —by a wide margin — on the field in a Top 5 (AP) matchup.
ND dominated the trenches last night and dictated terms on both sides from the outset
Saturday's loss to Notre Dame was one of the worst pass-blocking performance by a Miami team under Mario Cristobal.
Miami allowed only two sacks, but the Hurricanes allowed 21 quarterback pressures. It was the first time they allowed 20+ pressures since Cristobal took over in 2022.
It was the most QB pressures UM has allowed since playing Duke in 2019.
