While Texas vs Ohio State may be the main headliner for Week 1 of college football, Miami's matchup with Notre Dame appears to be one of the best (in addition to LSU vs Clemson). Let's take a look at the history between these two storied programs.
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish and Miami Hurricanes have met 27 times on the football field, with Notre Dame holding an 17–8–1 series advantage (Notre Dame has one vacated win). The rivalry began in 1955, but soared in intensity during the 1970s and 1980s before being paused after 1990. From 1955 through 1980, the Irish dominated the matchup, compiling a 12–1–1 record against Miami.
