The Notre Dame Fighting Irish finished their 2017 campaign with a 10-3 record and defeating the LSU Tigers in the Citrus Bowl 21-17. Head coach Brian Kelly has had his struggles to get over the hump, but the Irish are a team that every opponent has to circle on the schedule – and take very seriously.
