Notre Dame men’s basketball has now played its first two weeks of the 2025-26 season, and here are some thoughts on what we’ve seen from the Irish.

As the Ohio State men’s basketball team gets set to host the Notre Dame Fighting Irish for the first test of the season, the 3-0 Buckeyes will have one name at the top of the scouting report: Junior guard Markus Burton. Burton is one of the top guards in the ACC and is quickly becoming one of the top guards in the country.

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish will take on the Pitt Panthers on Saturday at Acrisure Stadium in what should be an exciting college football matchup.

The Panthers are one of a few surprising teams in the ACC, and they ride into Saturday’s clash with the Irish having won five games in a row. Notre Dame is a 12.5-point favorite over the Panthers with “College GameDay” in town.

On Sunday, Stanford women’s soccer defeated Notre Dame 2-2 (5-4 PK) to win the ACC tournament in Cary, North Carolina. Stanford senior midfielder Jasmine Aikey and senior forward Allie Montoya both scored for the Cardinal while Notre Dame sophomore infielder Izzy Engle and junior midfielder/forward Charlie Codd both scored for the Irish.

It's No. 1 vs. No. 2 when Stanford and Notre Dame face for the ACC women's soccer tournament championship Sunday. Here's how to watch.

It's a rivalry that dates back more than 100 years. Pitt and Notre Dame — two of college football's most historic programs.
