What we’ve all assumed for months regarding the Notre Dame – Navy game became official on Tuesday morning. The two schools will not be starting the season in Dublin as expected for the Aer Lingus College Football Classic. Instead, due to ongoing health concerns related to the COVID-19 pandemic, Notre Dame and Navy will square off against each other at Marine Corps Stadium in Annapolis, Maryland, for the first time ever.
The date of the game was changed as well. Originally the game was scheduled for August 29, but it was moved back a week and will either be September 5 or 6 with ABC or ESPN televising the game.
