Notre Dame and NBC released the kickoff times for the 2019 home schedule yesterday, and with the exception of the Southern Cal game on October 12th that will kick off at 7:30pm, all of the other games will be underway at 2:30 or 3:30pm.
Let’s start this off with a note from Captain Obvious: These kickoff times should have surprised absolutely no one. The 2019 schedule has a strong road-to-home strength imbalance, with three of the four toughest games — Georgia, Michigan, and Stanford — away from South Bend and two Tier Four tomato cans at home in the first month.
