Notre Dame Stadium has turned into an incredibly hard place for opponents to win over the past five seasons. Since 2017, the Irish have only lost two football games inside their home stadium. The first was in that 2017 season against a college football playoff bound Georgia Bulldogs, and the second came in 2021 against a college football playoff bound Cincinnati Bearcats squad which ended a 26 game home winning streak.
While on the surface that overall record should be intimidating enough — the two losses saw red invasions and these weren’t Princes of the Church.
