With news out that Notre Dame baseball is headed to play at Fenway Park in Boston in the spring of 2023, we thought it’d be a good time to take a quick trip down memory lane and look back at the football team’s trip to Fenway in 2015.
It wasn’t the prettiest of games for the Irish, who were very much alive in the College Football Playoff chase at the time. Boston College was in the midst of a brutal season, but five Notre Dame turnovers kept things far closer than most expected going in.
Despite getting off to a 10-0 lead in the first quarter, the Irish had to struggle their way to hold onto a 19-16 victory in improving to 10-1 while Boston College fell to 3-8.

Despite the ugly performance, Notre Dame escaped with a win and it was certainly a memorable night for all who experienced it. Here is a look back at the best photos from that night at Fenway Park.
