WHO? No. 8 Notre Dame (2-0) vs.Vanderbilt (2-0).
WHAT? A chance to give reason to forget about the egg the Irish laid against Ball State a week ago, despite managing a 24-16 victory. While Notre Dame winning was never truly in doubt, last Saturday did not feature the blowout widely-expected. Having notably less trouble with an SEC opponent, even one from the SEC’s cellars, would mark last week’s struggles an aberration, rather than a precursor.
WHEN? 2:30 p.m. ET. That is not a typo. This game kicks off an hour earlier than usual afternoon games do at home.
