Irish Kick Off 2021 Season at FSU

Notre Dame opens its 2021 football season by taking on the Florida State Seminoles in Tallahassee on Sunday night. This year’s Fighting Irish lineup features several new faces, particularly on offense. The attack will be led by quarterback Jack Coan, a graduate transfer from Wisconsin. Coan arrived on campus in January and proceeded to win the starting job over sophomore Drew Pyne and freshman Tyler Buchner. Head Coach Brian Kelly enters his twelfth season at Notre Dame, with a record of 81-39. An additional 21 wins in 2012 and 2013 were subsequently vacated due to NCAA violations. Sunday’s game will be televised by ABC beginning at 7:30 PM Eastern time.
