Every Saturday during the fall, I find myself staring at the Notre Dame sidelines, not just to see the plays unfold but to see what Marcus Freeman is wearing. The man has a gift for making Under Armour gear look sharp. There’s just one problem — the rest of us can’t buy it.
The Irish are set for the most important test of the season against rival No. 20 USC. With two of the most prolific offenses in the country, Lincoln Riley’s creative passing attack will take on Mike Denbrock’s crafty run and pass combination in what is sure to be a can’t-miss game. Despite the challenge, the Irish are favored by 8.5 points, but a lot must go right for Notre Dame to keep the playoff hopes alive. What are the keys to success for the Irish to win three in a row against their oldest rival?

The production, directed by communication studies, dance and theatre professor Laura Lucci, was based on Arthur Miller’s adaptation of the play.

“Happy Gilmore” is a cultural classic, featuring a traditional ‘90s movie style, Adam Sandler and an underdog story. The movie put smiles on faces worldwide and is one of Netflix’s most viewed films (number six in Netflix’s global top ten movies). Thus, watchers worldwide were excited when the sequel “Happy Gilmore 2” was announced. However, a sequel made 30 years later concerned me, as it ran a high risk of not properly honoring the original film; luckily, I was proven wrong.

Imagine you just finished dinner and are about to unwind for the night with your family. Somebody suggests watching the news. What channel will be put on? If your family is like mine, people have different opinions. Always. And it’s always between two options. So, instead of arguing, we turn on SNL’s “The Best of Chris Farley” special. At least that was our routine until my father discovered NewsNation.
Irish hockey returns to South Bend for non-conference opponent St. Lawrence this coming weekend in two games.
Graduate student appreciation week was in full swing as I began to write this column last week. Once a year, Notre Dame shows its appreciation for the vital role we play on campus by feting graduate students with food, swag and special events. For instance, my Monday morning went from zero to a hundred at the sight of Rise’n Roll donuts outside the library that were just for us. I took two and turned to the other side of the courtyard, where graduate school staff were handing out shirts, knit caps, pens and other branded paraphernalia. I gobbled down the donuts with a cup of coffee. I broke in the shirt during a sweat-drenched four-mile jog. And the pen inked the first draft of this column. Can Notre Dame buy my affection with such trivial things? Truthfully, yes. Feed me, clothe me, and I will be yours forever.
The Fighting Irish proved a return to form this past Saturday in their impressive performance, especially defensively, against the NC State Wolfpack. With their 36-7 win, Notre Dame improved its record to 4-2 and climbed to No. 13 in the AP Poll.

Here are some highs and lows from this past weekend.
