Clausen, Notre Dame will keep pace with USC
2009-10-14 02:53:00 Please don't mention this to Touchdown Jesus. For gosh sakes, don't breathe a word of this if you're within 200 yards of the Rockne Monument. Saturday in South Bend, Notre Dame, a school that's turned out a mere seven Heisman Trophy winners, 79 consensus All Americans, 43 Hall of Famers and a school endowment big enough to purchase the National Hockey League team of your choice will face arch-rival USC beneath the Golden Dome....

Should the Big East Give Notre Dame a Football Ultimatum?
2008-12-21 06:40:00 Q: Do you think it's time for the Big East to give Notre Dame an ultimatum to either join the conference in football or get out completely? PAUL ZEISE: No, there are far more benefits to being aligned with Notre Dame than the other way around and frankly the Big East doesn't have enough brand name teams to stand on its own and start making demands. Maybe ten years from now, but not quite yet.

What I Did In Paris..Part 365..Notre Dame
2008-12-15 08:49:00 Obviously one of the places to see when one is in Paris is the Cathedrale de Notre Dame.Notre Dame took over two hundred years to build and offers lots of great photo opportunities from whichever way you approach it.Inside there are three massive rose stained glass windows.Outside on the narrow walkways on the towers you can get close to many of the gargoyles that perch on the cathedral's ledges.You can also get good views of the skyline.Admission to the Cathedral's interior is free so you can wander around and take photos of the rose windows and the various altars inside the huge building.Admission to the towers cost 7.50 euros as well as a chilly half hour wait in the queue and climbing a narrow spiral staircase.Once you reach the towers via the stairs and through the gift shop you can get views of the skyline.In this shot you can make out Sacre Coeur on the hill in the background to the left of the gargoyle.

Flip-through: Brussels, Ferries, Notre Dame, and Ryanair madness
2008-06-06 18:28:00 Some of the stories that grabbed our attention this week: Brussels and Bruges Back from his trip to Belgrade for the Eurovision song contest, Alex of Spendthrift Shoestring jaunted off to Brussels on the Eurostar to see how the city has changed since his last visit in 2002. We enjoyed his musings on the city’s neighborhood and vibe, having just visited Brussels in March. And yes, Alex, we also have a fondness for the Use-It fold-out maps to Brussels (and five other Belgian cities). These map-guides are, according to their creators, ”no-non-sense, non commercial, made by locals,” and thus offer some candid (and amusing!) advice. When we visited Bruges, we “Used-It” nightly to find the city’s cool restaurants, bars, and cafes. You can print your own guide off from their website. European Ferries BudgetTravel.com reminded us yesterday to consider taking ferries between European cities. Ferries offer a fun and cheap transportation option around muc...

Better Know a Jaguars Draft Prospect: Notre Dame Safety Tom Zbikowski
2008-04-24 07:19:00 The least you should know about Tom Zbikowski... Height 5-11 Weight 211 lbs 40 Yard Dash 4.44 20 Yard Dash 2.55 Bench Reps 24 3 Cone 6.78 Compares To: Adrian Wilson - Arizona: " One of the most exciting defensive players in recent Notre Dame defensive history, Zbikowski has proven himself to be a game breaker with 7 career touchdowns (3 punt returns, 2 interception returns, 2 fumble returns). Whether he can return to his dominant form of 2005 where he garnered several all-American honors remains to be seen. If a team can figure out how to best use his unique set of skills, something the coached at Notre Dame seemed to struggle with, he could be an impact player at the next level both on defense and in the return game." There is a considerable lack of consensus about where Zbikowski will fit in the NFL. Some sites put him as a second round prospect and put the emphasis on the team that drafts him to use his unique skill...
SB Nation's John Morgan interviews Notre Dame DT Trevor Laws
2008-04-23 00:15:00 Fellow SB Nation blogger and Seahawks Fan John Morgan has a fantastic interview over at Field Gulls with Notre Dame Defensive Tackle Trevor Laws. As you all know, I've got a serious "draft crush" for Laws, I would not bat an eye if the Jaguars selected him at 26. I think he's has a better motor than Kentwan Balmer, and I think he'd be a great fit on our defense. Anyhow, the interview is very well done. An excerpt John Morgan: Tell me a bit how you prepare for an opponent. Do you watch a lot of tape or look at scouting reports? Any pregame rituals or habits? Trevor Laws: Most games I have a pretty similar routine. Eat big the night before the game. Watch a few hours of film in the hotel. When I get up I make a big cup of coffee. I eat the same pregame meal every game. I have pancakes with peanut butter and honey on them. Then I go dominate. JM: Do you develop a feel for an opposing offensive lineman, pick up on their strengths/weaknesses in game? A...

George Mason falls to Notre Dame, exits NCAA tournament
2008-03-21 17:03:00 George Mason turned out to not be this year's George Mason after all. The Patriots gave up 17 straight points early in the first half, falling 68-50 against Notre Dame to be quickly eliminated from the first round of the NCAA men's college basketball tournament. Will Thomas scored 25 points a valiant effort but the remainder of the George Mason only matched that 25 point total, clearly not a good enough result. Outgoing senior Folarin Campbell as among the shut down players, scoring only four points in the game. GMU proved particularly vulnerable defensively to the 3-pointer, giving up nine such baskets against Notre Dame during the contest.George Mason finished 2007-08 play with 23 wins, 11 losses, the Colonial Athletic Association tournament crown and a host of memories from two years ago.Relevant link: AP via Yahoo

George Mason bids for NCAA upset vs. Notre Dame
2008-03-20 23:49:00 Two years removed from their Cinderella run, the George Mason Patriots again seek upset glory in the NCAA men's college basketball tournament. George Mason is set to face a powerhouse Notre Dame team ranked #15 in the country with an impressive 24-7 mark. Big East Player of the Year Luke Harangody leads Notre Dame with a 20+ points per game average.The GMU Patriots themselves are not entirely without merit, coming in at 23-10 including three straight wins to claim the Colonial Athletic Association automatic bid. Ironically, the auto bid was one thing that eluded Mason two years ago as the Cinderella squad had to qualify with an at-large entry. Folarin Campbell and Will Thomas return as team leaders with memories still intact from their 2006 run to the Final Four.While another Final Four run for George Mason this year is extremely unlikely, the potential of that possibility has peaked national interest as tonight's game will be televised by CBS to 62% of the country.
