Notre Dame on 2015 Sports Illustrated Preview Cover

The hype for the 2015 Notre Dame Fighting Irish has officially begun to build. Sports Illustrated released its seaosn preview on Wednesday and ranked the Irish as the #4 team in the country predicting they would reach the College Football Playoffs. In the process, SI placed Notre Dame on the cover of one of its four regional issues that hit newsstands today.

Notre Dame was ranked #11 in the Amway Coaches Poll released last week and has generally been seen as a fringe top 10 team on the heels of last year’s 8-5 campaign. Sports Illustrated, however, has apparently gone all in with the Irish with their prediction of a playoff run for Notre Dame in 2015.
