Notre Dame Football: Tennessee State Tigers Q&A with Underdog Dynasty

Folks,,,

It was an excellent and quite aesthetically pleasing start to the season for us as Notre Dame Fighting Irish football fans, watching our beloved boys in blue and gold travel to Dublin just to put a near-perfect smackdown on those pesky Midshipmen.

This weekend, the multiple-game tune-up to prepare for the meat of the schedule continues as the Irish play host to the Tennessee State Tigers, the first-ever FCS school to play Notre Dame and a unique and historical opponent thanks to its status as an HBCU, its strong history in the sport and athletics in general, and its head coach being Eddie George, another former Ohio State Buckeye great whom Marcus Freeman can certainly appreciate.
