A Notre Dame RB is angling for the prestigious Maxwell Award

The Fighting Irish running back could get a major award this season.

Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love may be a long shot for the Heisman, and now he’s on another awards’ watch list.

He’s on the watch list for the Maxwell Award.

The award is given out to the most outstanding college football player in the U.S., with sports writers, sports broadcasters, and head coaches making up the field of judges.

Boise State’s Ashton Jeanty won the award in 2024.

It’s no surprise Love would be on this list, since he helped lead the Irish to the national title game last season — and had he been healthier, the team might have prevailed over Ohio State.

Maybe Love should be more of a Heisman favorite, after all.
