Notre Dame (5-2) returns to action with a road trip to face the Boston College Eagles (1-7). The Fighting Irish have won the last nine contests in this series and are riding a five-game winning streak. Meanwhile, the Eagles have not won since an opening win over Fordham. Injuries and an unsettled situation at quarterback have played a significant role in their decline. This week’s battle will be broadcast nationally by ESPN starting at 3:30 Eastern time.
BC Head Coach Bill O’Brien is in his second season at Chestnut Hill. He is 8-13 overall after a 7-6 campaign in 2024 capped by an appearance in the Pinstripe Bowl.
