Talented Irish Invade Louisville

Following a perfect regular season and a disappointing playoff loss, Notre Dame opens its highly anticipated 2019 campaign with a Labor Day road game against the Louisville Cardinals. The Fighting Irish return much of the nucleus from last season, and boast a wealth of young talent to compete for positions vacated by the likes of current NFL rookies Jerry Tillery, Julian Love, Miles Boykin, Drue Tranquill and Te’Von Coney. Coach Brian Kelly enters his tenth year at the helm, and Coordinators Chip Long (offense) and Clark Lea (defense) return as well. The game will be televised by ESPN beginning at 5:00 PM Eastern time.
