Notre Dame Fighting Irish Football

Established in 1887, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish football program of the University of Notre Dame is perhaps the most iconic in the nation. Although the team plays most of its home games at Notre Dame Stadium in South Bend, Indiana, it has also participated in a series of neutral site games called the Shamrock Series.

The Fighting Irish have won at least 10 games in six of the past seven seasons, claiming nine in the other. That nine-win campaign came in 2022, Marcus Freeman’s first as Notre Dame’s head coach and second with the program overall.

The Fighting Irish finished 2023 ranked 14th in both major polls, and many believe that they will be a top-10 program this year and take part in the College Football Playoff with the ability to make some noise once there, possibly even win the school’s first national championship since 1988.

As an independent, the Fighting Irish routinely play teams from the Big Ten. They also have an informal alliance with the ACC that sees it play a game or two each year against teams from that conference. And it’s not uncommon to see Notre Dame play at least one game a year against one of Army, Navy, or Air Force.

This year, there will be many changes on offense, but included are positive ones, such as the bringing aboard of quarterback Riley Leonard, who played in 20 games for Duke the past two seasons, and offensive coordinator Mike Denbrock, who most recently served in that role at LSU.

I believe we have the personnel around Riley Leonard to make sure he’s successful.

Also expected to contribute on the field will be running backs Jadarian Price and Jeremiyah Love and tight end Mitchell Evans.

Calling the shots off the field on the defensive side will be third-year defensive coordinator Al Golden. His unit is coming off an impressive 2023, in which it ranked in the top five nationally in total defense. A couple of its top returners include defensive tackle Howard Cross III, cornerback Benjamin Morrison, and safety Xavier Watts.

There will be a newcomer at kicker for the Fighting Irish with Mitch Jeter, who converted 23 of his 25 field goal attempts with South Carolina in 2023, expected to take that role.

Notre Dame’s likely toughest regular-season games this season will be its opener, a trip to Texas A&M, and a home matchup with Florida State in November.

Notre Dame Athletics is in the ACC for sports other than football.
