One College Football Playoff projection has game Notre Dame fans want

For nearly three years now, there is one matchup Notre Dame fans have been clamoring for. They felt jilted the moment Brian Kelly abruptly left for LSU, and they now want the Irish to prove to him that he was wrong for ditching them. One College Football Playoff projection would provide them with that opportunity.

The Athletic has released its early playoff projection, and it has the Irish as the eighth seed, hosting the Tigers at Notre Dame Stadium. If this happened, Irish fans would be out for blood and would make life absolutely miserable for Kelly and his team. Combine that with the cold temperatures, and it could be as intense an atmosphere as there’s ever been in South Bend.

Obviously, there’s a long way to go before this can become reality. For now, the mere thought of the Irish sticking it to Kelly is enough to get fans excited. Let’s see it come to pass.
