2015 Recap: 10-3. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish had a solid year in 2015 but closed out the season with a Fiesta Bowl loss to Ohio State. Brian Kelly has a good team returning led by DeShone Kizer at QB who could be contenders.
The Irish need to be ready for their opener at Texas. The Longhorns should be ready for them. If they win that, they’ve got the toughest games at home except for the season finale at USC.
