Vegas Baby!!! Notre Dame Heads to Sin City to Take on BYU Next Season

News broke a little over month ago that Notre Dame would be taking on BYU in Las Vegas during the 2022 season in another installment of the Shamrock Series.

In-State Rivalry Renewed: Week 3 Match Up, # 12 Notre Dame Takes on Purdue

While looking at the 2021 Notre Dame schedule before the season started, I did not think the meaningful games would start until week 4 when the Fighting Irish traveled to Chicago to take on Wisconsin. Opening the season on the road vs. Florida State on prime time was a game to worry about, but following up with home games against a MAC team in Toledo and then a bottom half B1G team with Purdue didn’t really get the heart rate…
