Notre Dame’s “revenge tour” this season is fueled by bitter memories of losing to Miami — the team that snatched the College Football Playoff spot they felt was theirs. With chants echoing at Rice and a seemingly easy schedule leading up to their November showdown, Coach Freeman’s team is fixated on Miami, ignoring other losses and their own championship potential. While the “Catholics vs. Convicts” history adds spice, obsessing over past wrongs risks overshadowing what could be a historic season — and as the saying goes, revenge might just dig two graves.

Notre Dame heads into a pivotal Saturday night showdown against Michigan State with momentum on offense but critical questions on the line. The Irish average 46.5 points per game, but their run game struggles at just over 114 yards a contest—partly due to injuries and an underperforming offensive line that’s only played two games together in its current configuration. Key matchups loom: center Ashton Craig and the right guard spot must dominate inside against Michigan State’s disruptive DT Ben Roberts, while receiver Micah Gilbert, coming off his best game, faces tough corners Tre Bell and Tyran Chappell. On defense, guard Anthonie Knapp will be tested against elite pass rusher Eli Coenen, who leads the Spartans. This is a chance for Freeman’s team to prove they can sustain success—and win big—in the trenches.

Notre Dame and Michigan State are reigniting their historic football rivalry, set to clash this year and next — a matchup steeped in tradition, mutual respect, and a legacy that dates back to WWII when Michigan State stood by Notre Dame amid wartime scheduling turmoil. Though Notre Dame holds the all-time edge, the last two decades have been fiercely competitive, fueling renewed interest. Current MSU coach Pat Fitzgerald champions annual matchups, recognizing their cultural value despite modern scheduling hurdles. With potential playoff expansion and non-conference flexibility on the horizon, both programs appear eager to extend this iconic series — a move that could preserve college football’s rich tradition for fans and players alike.

Michigan State is riding high with a 2-0 record, fresh off a win over Eastern Michigan, as they prepare to take on top-ranked Notre Dame in a high-stakes showdown. Led by rushing phenom Cam Edwards and steady QB Alessio Milivojevic, the Spartans aim to dominate with their ground game while minimizing turnovers. Defensive standout Eli Coenen will need to pressure Notre Dame’s accurate QB CJ Carr, who’s thrown six TDs without an interception. With Notre Dame averaging over 46 points per game and a stingy defense, this clash of styles could be pivotal — especially since it’s part of the storied “Battle for the Megaphone” rivalry. Can MSU pull off the upset on national TV?
