Notre Dame Football announces new 2025 home game vs. Boise State
Notre Dame announced quite the matchup for the 2025 season as Boise State will come to town. The Broncos will play the Fighting Irish October 4, 2025.
It’s a fun addition to next year’s schedule and while fans can mark their calendars, surely the 2024 season is more important right now! NBC will have plenty of Notre Dame once again.
The school released a statement on the matchup with Boise State though, getting everyone excited for 2025.
“The University of Notre Dame football team has announced a matchup with Boise State University on October 4, 2025, in Notre Dame Stadium,” the statement read. “It will be the first meeting between the Fighting Irish and Broncos. A member of the Mountain West Conference, Boise State finished 8-6 in 2023, 6-2 in the MWC and made an appearance in the 2023 LA Bowl against UCLA.
“Notre Dame will face Northern Illinois for the first time in 2024 and with the Boise State game now announced, the Irish will have faced or plan to play 90 of the 134 Football Bowl Subdivision teams at least once in program history. Notre Dame is 32-6 all-time against teams that will comprise the Mountain West Conference in 2024 and 16-4 against MWC teams in Notre Dame Stadium. Kickoff times and network broadcast designation will be announced at a later date.”

NBC announces Notre Dame games for 2024
Notre Dame’s home opener Sept. 7 against Northern Illinois will be NBC’s first broadcast of the year with a 3:30 p.m. ET kickoff. The games against Miami (Ohio) on Sept. 21, Stanford on Oct. 12 and Virginia on Nov. 16 will also be on NBC in that window, while the Sept. 28 matchup vs. Louisville will be a Peacock exclusive with the same time slot.
The Fighting Irish will play two primetime games in November, as well, with the Florida State matchup as the highest-profile at 7:30 p.m. on Nov. 9. That contest will be at Notre Dame Stadium as Marcus Freeman’s group takes on the reigning ACC champion. The Irish will then head to Yankee Stadium to take on Army at 7 p.m. ET on Nov. 23 as part of the Shamrock Series.
The university’s and NBC’s agreement was set to expire after this season, but the two sides announced an extension through the 2029 season – continuing a partnership that goes back to 1991. The deal also includes a Peacock exclusive, which will be the Louisville game this year.
“We are thrilled to continue our historic collaboration with our partners at NBC Sports,” former Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick said in a statement announcing the extension. “In the next generation of this partnership, we will collaborate to provide our fans even more Notre Dame content through a variety of NBCUniversal’s distribution channels while continuing to put our student-athletes and their stories at the heart of our messaging.”
