Irish Host Erratic Eagles
Notre Dame (8-1) continues its home stand the Boston College Eagles (4-5). The Fighting Irish are now seeded fifth in the latest playoff rankings. That position is precarious given the unpredictable and often irrational assessments by the Selection Committee. Coach Marcus Freeman’s team hopes to maintain the momentum it seized last week by defeating Miami. It is imperative that the Irish avoid a letdown and finish the season strong. Meanwhile, the Eagles have shown flashes of competitiveness this season and always play hard in South Bend. This week’s battle will be broadcast nationally by NBC starting at 3:30 Eastern time.
