It’s all here

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are 2-0 to start the 2021 college football season, and fans all over the country are settling in for an exciting year. The Irish are currently ranked #10 in the Coaches Poll and #12 in the AP Top 25 — both of which are lower than where they started the season.

SB Nation did some changes to the back end of the network, and in doing so, there are no longer the “team pages” with player hubs or stats. In service to all of our loyal readers, I offer this page as an easy reference to the basic information and stats for the 2021 season. I’ll keep it pinned somewhere under the fold throughout the season, as well as placing it in the “MORE” drop down menu.
