The Huskies will travel to South Bend, Indiana, for a September 27, 2031 game, while Notre Dame will host the visiting team in Seattle on November 11, 2034. This series follows Notre Dame's impressive 8-0 record against Washington, with the most recent meeting occurring in 2009 - a thrilling 37-30 overtime victory for the Irish at home.\n\nThe long-standing rivalry between these two teams dates back to 1948, when Notre Dame dominated the game with a resounding 46-0 win at home. The following year, in a rematch at Husky Stadium, the Irish secured another impressive 27-7 victory, propelling coach Frank Leahy to his fourth national title in a decade.\n\nLooking ahead, Notre Dame's 2031 football schedule boasts a packed slate of games, including matchups with USC, Clemson (away), Florida, South Florida, and Navy. In addition to these key opponents, the Fighting Irish will also host home games against ACC scheduling partners Miami and North Carolina State, as well as visiting traditional rivals Pittsburgh, Virginia, and North Carolina. Currently, there remains one open spot on the 2031 schedule for Notre Dame football.",
