The schedule that the Syracuse Orange get assigned each year from the ACC has a few dates that you always circle. First is whatever day that the Clemson Tigers show up. The matches are always great and it’s damn fine soccer. One of the next games that fits in that category is the showdown with the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
Since the ACC runs an unbalanced schedule, the Orange and Irish didn’t meet up last season, but they did every year from 2012-2016. In 2012, it was an Irish win in the Big East Tournament, then the inaugural ACC contests, which Notre Dame took both of.
