Things are different
The college football playoff field is set, and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish are ranked #5 but get the 7 seed for the tournament. After weeks of wondering who the Irish might play inside Notre Dame Stadium in the first round — it turns out that ND will welcome its in-state neighbor, the Indiana Hoosiers, to South Bend.
Now we get to what might be a strange sight for the millions (and millions) of Notre Dame fans across the world… a non-NBC Broadcast.
WHEN, WHERE, AND HOW TO WATCH
When: Friday, December 20th at 8:00
Where: Notre Dame Stadium, South Bend, Indiana
How To Watch: ESPN and ESPN APP with Sean McDonough and Greg McElroy as the broadcast team (it’s McEverything).
Yes, ESPN is coming to Notre Dame Stadium to broadcast an Irish football game — and I think that’s pretty exciting. The first Notre Dame football game on NBC after the historic deal was the Indiana Hoosiers — and now it’s the first non-NBC game since then.
