Notre Dame (2-0) will try to shake off three weeks of rust as the Fighting Irish host Florida State (1-2) on Saturday evening. Coach Brian Kelly’s squad was hit by a wave of COVID-19 in late September, but expects to have most of its starters available for this contest. Practice resumed this past weekend and the coaches claim the team performed well from a physical standpoint. The game will be televised by NBC beginning at 7:30 PM Eastern time.
Mike Norvell was named head football coach in Tallahassee last December after a successful four year run at Memphis.
