How to watch Notre Dame football game vs. Pittsburgh
Notre Dame football is back after a short hiatus, and the Irish host the Pittsburgh Panthers at 3:30 p.m. ET on Saturday in South Bend. The game will be televised on NBC and streamed on Peacock, and the usual crew of broadcasters is back as well.
Jac Collinsworth (play-by-play), Jason Garrett (color commentators) and Zora Stephenson (sideline reporter) will have the call as the Irish take on the Panthers, along with former Big Ten referee Reggie Smith as the sideline analyst.
Notre Dame is undefeated this season when Collinsworth and Garrett call the game together, sitting at 2-0 so far. Collinsworth missed two games earlier this season due to illness, so the Irish are 4-0 when Garrett himself is in the broadcast booth.
