Notre Dame opens its 2024 season in a little over 24 hours on the road in Kyle Field against the 20th-ranked Texas A&M Aggies. The Irish enter the game as underdogs, with most in the media picking A&M to win the game and few giving the Irish a chance to pull off the “upset” of a team they are ranked 13 spots higher than. Marcus Freeman, entering his critical third year as head coach, brings his squad to College Station looking to change the narrative of the Irish on the road in big games under his tenure.
