And here we are ... this weekend is the Notre Dame home opener versus Tennessee State University. Since the two schools have never played before, I will throwback to a different Tennessee University this week for my Throwback Thursday article: Notre Dame VS the University of Tennessee, 2004.
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish have played the Tennessee Volunteers a total of eight times, with each team winning four times. Notre Dame’s largest margin of victory is 41-21 in 2005, and Tennessee’s largest margin of victory is 38-14 in 1999. Notre Dame’s longest win streak is two (2004-2005), and Tennessee’s longest win streak is three (1991-2001).
