College GameDay notes ahead of Clemson-Notre Dame

Have you ever wondered about how Notre Dame has fared when Lee Corso and company have been in attendance?

It’s the game of the year in the ACC as No. 1 Clemson goes on the road to face No. 4 Notre Dame in a game that has massive implications for the College Football Playoff.

ESPN’s “College GameDay” will broadcast from Notre Dame Stadium on Saturday morning, marking the program’s first trip to South Bend since the season opener against Michigan in 2018 and their 10th trip to Notre Dame overall.

In the nine games ESPN has broadcast “College GameDay” from Notre Dame previously, the Irish are 5-4 overall, including a win over No. 1 Florida State the first time the show ever went remote, in November 1993 for that epic No. 1 vs. No. 2 showdown.
