A printable schedule showcasing all dates, opponents, and TV lineups is available for download. The Irish open the 2026 season against Wisconsin on September 5 at 7:30 PM ET on NBC.\n\nSubsequent matchups include a game against Rice on September 12 at 3:30 PM ET on NBC, followed by a clash with Michigan State on September 19 at 7:30 PM ET on NBC. Notre Dame travels to face Purdue on September 26, with the time and TV channel yet to be determined. The team visits UNC on October 3, and Stanford on October 10, with the latter also airing on NBC at 3:30 PM ET.\n\nBYU hosts Notre Dame on October 17, while a neutral site game against Navy is scheduled for November 7, airing on NBC at 7:30 PM ET.
