No. 5 Notre Dame welcomes Florida State to South Bend on Saturday night in what for the Fighting Irish faithful feels like the first game in an eternity.
The Irish haven’t played since a 52-0 win over South Florida on September 19 while 1-2 Florida State enters after a comeback win over Jacksonville State last week where the Seminoles fell to a 14-0 deficit before rallying to pick up that first victory.
