Christmas and the holiday season is here and for the first time in a long time, Notre Dame football is still in contention for a National Championship. Outside of Notre Dame’s record, this season wasn’t always perfect (although the record is pretty nice). This season had its fair share of ups and downs, that may or may not have resulted in more elevated blood pressure than our physicians would have liked.
Regardless, once it was all said and done, the Irish found themselves in the College Football Playoff for the first time. However you look at it, there’s a lot to be thankful for when it comes to this year’s Irish squad.
