Notre Dame Football: Irish Won’t Honor BYU Deal & Play in Provo before 2021

It appears the Notre Dame Fighting Irish will give the BYU Cougarsa big payday” instead of traveling to Provo before 2021.

The two schools struck an agreement in 2010 to play two “two-for-one”s — i.e. BYU would visit South Bend twice for every Irish visit to Provo. When the Irish affiliated with the Atlantic Coast Conference in 2013, the agreement was cut in half.
