Notre Dame fans could be forgiven for feeling a little disappointed after last season. On paper, the Fighting Irish were equipped with enough NFL-caliber talent to potentially make a playoff run but got knocked out of contention after midseason losses to Ohio State and Louisville.
But this year has been a phenomenal rebound and then some for the Fighting Irish. Behind quarterback Riley Leonard and an elite defense, Notre Dame racked up a sterling 11–1 record that helped them make the cut for the 12-team playoff.
With ample momentum alongside a good draw, could Notre Dame win it all this year? Here’s what you need to know if you want to watch Notre Dame football this season.
