Notre Dame Football: Some Fighting Irish-BYU History and Hype

Last week’s trip in the Notre Dame-Ohio State way back machine got me thinking about another once-in-a-blue-moon matchup on this season’s schedule.

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish will take on the Brigham Young University Cougars on October 8 in Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium for the 2022 Shamrock Series game.

While the Shamrock Series is always exciting, this game will mark Notre Dame’s first trip to Nevada, the first meeting between the Irish and Cougars since 2013, and a shot at 11-0 in Shamrock Series games for the Irish.

A Holy War in Sin City

Few universities are as synonymous with their religious affiliations as BYU and Notre Dame.
