Notre Dame Bowl Projections: Irish To Meet Iowa State For The First Time?

Related Topics: Russell Athletic Bowl

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are likely headed to an Orlando, Florida bowl following their 38-20 loss to the Stanford Cardinal, with the most likely pairing being the Iowa St. Cyclones in the Camping World Bowl.

While the Irish and Iowa Hawkeyes have played 24 times previously, Notre Dame has never played the team from Ames. The Cyclones are 7-5 this year, with big wins against the Oklahoma Sooners and TCU Horned Frogs. They will finish fourth in the Big 12, and aren’t particularly good at anything.
