ACC, Notre Dame Announce Future Football Matchups

 

As part of the ongoing agreement, Notre Dame and the Atlantic Coast Conference announced the five football games that will be played annually between the Fighting Irish and members of the league from 2026 through 2037.

The agreement continues a partnership that began in 2014, in which the ACC’s 14 football member schools play the Fighting Irish an average of five times per year. By the end of the 2037 season, Notre Dame will have played 120 games against ACC opponents, beginning with the 2014 football season.

The ACC and Notre Dame had previously announced the schedule of games from 2017 through 2025.

“The ACC’s football partnership with Notre Dame has been extremely successful throughout our first four seasons,” said ACC Commissioner John Swofford. “As we look to the future, these games will continue to enhance the experience for our players, schools and fans.”

Half of the 60 games scheduled from 2026 through 2037 will be home games for ACC teams, and Notre Dame will play host to 30 games. Highlights include Labor Day Monday night games at Clemson on August 30, 2031 and at Virginia Tech on September 1, 2036.

ACC schools were 6-9 against the Fighting Irish over the past three seasons (2014-2016). The 2017 slate finds ACC teams playing three home games against Notre Dame (Boston College on September 16, North Carolina on October 7 and Miami on November 11). The Fighting Irish will play host to NC State on October 28 and to Wake Forest on November 4.
