Looking to plan your fall football viewing already? Well, game times for Notre Dame Fighting Irish home games have been announced.
It starts Sept. 6 with Wisconsin at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wis. Even though the Badgers play in Madison, which is closer to Lambeau (and obviously in the same state), Notre Dame is the home team as part of the Shamrock Series. That one kicks off at 7 p.m. ET.
Then it's versus Rice in South Bend on Sept. 12 at 3:30 ET. Next up is a night game against Michigan State at 7:30 p.m. ET.
After three straight home games, two on campus, it's time to go on the road to Purdue (Sept. 28) and North Carolina (Oct. 3) before returning home to face Stanford at 3:30 p.m. ET on Oct. 10.
It's on the road again for BYU (Oct. 17) and Navy (Oct. 31) with a bye week in between. Notre Dame hosts Miami (FL) in what should be a grudge match given how last year's college football playoff shook out. That game is at 7:30 p.m. ET on Nov. 7.
Next, it's home against Boston College on Nov. 14 at 3:30 p.m. ET, followed by the final home game -- against SMU at 7:30 p.m. ET on Nov. 21. The regular season concludes at Syracuse on Nov. 28.
