Notre Dame opens its 2022 season on Saturday night on the road against the Ohio State Buckeyes. The pundits have picked the uber-talented hosts to win the national championship this season. That is understandable given their prolific aerial attack and three legitimate Heisman Trophy candidates. The Fighting Irish feature a veteran defense and a youthful offense. Quarterback Tyler Buchner will make his first career start. His supporting cast features fellow sophomores at key positions including both tackle spots and a pair of wide receivers. This game will be nationally televised by ABC starting at 7:30 pm Eastern time.
Coach Ryan Day boasts a 34-4 record since taking over the helm at OSU in 2019.
