The regular college football season begins in two weeks when Florida State and Georgia Tech open the year in Dublin, Ireland.
A week later, Notre Dame will play a major opening game at Texas A&M to kick off the 12-game 2024 season.
With exactly three weeks until the start of the Notre Dame football team’s regular season, here are five things you should know about the Notre Dame football team for Saturday, August 10, 2024:
You can argue that Notre Dame is better than all 12 teams it faces in 2024. You can also argue that Notre Dame has a lot of work ahead of it with games against Texas A&M, Louisville, Florida State and USC.
If you were or are a betting person, how would you bet on Notre Dame’s 10.5-win total in 2024? Pete Fiutak took a look at just that on Friday.
Benjamin Morrison is likely Notre Dame’s best player as we head into the 2024 season. He had shoulder surgery in the spring, which has some Notre Dame fans at least a little concerned heading into the 2024 season, but all indications are that he’ll be fully ready to play against Texas A&M. Pro Football Focus recently took a look at Morrison and the top 10 cornerbacks in the country eligible for the draft, and we looked at Notre Dame’s incredible drought of first-round cornerbacks.
Notre Dame still has a long way to go to catch up to the better passing teams in college football, simply because of the talent it has at the wide receiver position. John Kennedy took a look at why the wide receivers are a group that is on the upswing heading into 2024.
It’s been a while since Notre Dame has had any good news recruiting-wise, but there were some developments Friday night that make us think something good could be about to happen regarding a relatively new in-state offer.
What can we expect from Notre Dame’s offense with a new quarterback, a new offensive coordinator and a revamped offensive line in 2024?
According to one returning starter, it will be “explosive,” which is certainly exciting to hear.
