The rivalry between Notre Dame and Michigan is one of the most intense in college football. While Notre Dame fans consider Southern Cal to be their biggest rival, Michigan fans see the team from down south as their main opposition. However, when these two schools face off against each other, things can get heated and not very complimentary.
Despite their animosity, Notre Dame and Michigan have not played each other for a while now. They are set to meet again in a home-and-home series in 2033 and 2034, highlighting the intensity of their rivalry. This upcoming matchup adds to the excitement of college football fans everywhere, as they eagerly anticipate the next time these two storied programs will clash on the field.
Recent projections by On3’s Andy Staples have only added to this excitement. In his 12-team College Football Playoff, Notre Dame was given the ninth seed and will face off against No. 8 Michigan in the first round. If they win this matchup, they will go on to play Ohio State, who was given the top seed in Staples’ projection. This added competition only serves to fuel the passion and intensity that defines their rivalry.
