2025 Rush/Rec Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
While there were some questions as to how much each of the running backs would be used in 2025, Love emerged as the odds-on favorite to claim the lead role in the backfield as the preseason progressed. That eventually came to fruition, with Love handling a 32 percent carry share to lead the running back room by 11 percent over Jadarian Price. It was, in fact, quarterback Riley Leonard who was second on the team with 124 carries during the regular season. The Fighting Irish offense was efficient enough to get Love into the end zone on the ground at least once in each of the 12 regular-season contests, and he finished with at least two touchdowns (either rushing or a combination of rushing and receiving) in four of 12 contests. Following the graduation of Leonard, CJ Carr appears poised to claim the starting role under center. While Carr has some functional mobility, he's far from the rusher that Leonard was, so the rushing attack should fall more to Love and the running back room. Jadarian Price remains the support option here, but Love could be bound for a career year in the backfield in 2025 as the Fighting Irish prepare for a somewhat softer schedule. Read Past Outlooks

Returns to century mark
Love rebounded nicely on the ground against Boise State with 103 yards on 16 carries and a touchdown in the Irish 28-7 win over the Broncos on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
In addition, Love had a reception for 11 yards against Boise State. Scoring wise it was not as good as the previous week against Arkansas where the junior had a total of four touchdowns, two each on the ground and through the air. The junior only put up 57 rushing yards against Arkansas. Love could have a tougher time this Saturday, Oct. 11 against North Carolina State. The Wolfpack rush defense is in the top 50 in the country. He could have a better game through the air as North Carolina State pass defense is in the bottom third in the nation.
