Two historic college football programs will meet under the lights at Notre Dame Stadium this weekend.
The No. 9 Notre Dame Fighting Irish (4-0) will battle the No. 6 Ohio State Buckeyes (3-0) that could wind up having major College Football Playoff implications.
Marcus Freeman made his Notre Dame coaching debut in Columbus to open the 2022 season. Ohio State quarterback C.J. Stroud tossed two touchdown passes and the Buckeyes’ defense held Notre Dame scoreless in the second half to secure a 21-10 win at The Shoe.
Stroud is now with the Houston Texans and the Buckeyes have handed the keys to Kyle McCord. Meanwhile, Sam Hartman is the new QB1 for the Fighting Irish after transferring from Wake Forest.
