Notre Dame will kickoff its 2023 football season the final Saturday in August as the Irish will be in Dublin to take on Navy in college football’s Week 0.
It’s a home game technically for Notre Dame, who last played abroad to start the 2012 season. They dominated Navy 50-10 that day and will be looking to do it again to start 2023.
Notre Dame returns home the next week as they’ll play their first-ever FCS opponent when Tennessee State comes to town. A true road game at North Carolina State follows before Central Michigan comes to South Bend on September 16.
A week later is one of the most anticipated games at Notre Dame Stadium in quite some time as Ohio State comes a calling. Road games at difficult opponents Duke and Louisville follow before USC will be in South Bend on October 14.
After a well-deserved bye week the Irish close October hosting Pitt before hitting the road to take on Clemson to start November. Another bye week follows that before Wake Forest closes the home slate for Notre Dame in 2023 and the annual California trip to close the regular season takes them to Stanford on Thanksgiving weekend.
Ahead of the year we’re trying to figure out what the depth chart will look like for Notre Dame. With now under six weeks until the season kicks off, here is our best guess at how things stand entering fall camp.
