August 20, 20206 yr According to Sports Illustrated, multiple sources are reporting that Notre Dame will replace the Western Michigan game on their schedule with South Florida. The game is to be played in South Bend September 19th.
August 28, 20206 yr Author It was formally announced today. The deal is a 3 game series which includes the game in South Bend on September 19th. Two more games are to be scheduled later, another at ND, and the third in Tampa.
August 28, 20206 yr Author USF now has an 11 game schedule which opens on September 12 with The Citadel at home.
September 17, 20206 yr Author There is a special interest hook in this one, but not as prominent as the one in 2011 with Skip Holtz leading the Bulls into South Bend. Charlie Weis Jr. is the new offensive coordinator at USF. Weis did say in his media session that it will be weird hearing the fight song from the other sideline. I am always cautiously optimistic, but ND is looking for revenge for 2011. USF's QB situation is still in flux. Last week's starter, Jordan McCloud was 11 or 16 for 68 yards and a TD, but he shared time with graduate transfer Noah Johnson. Johnson is definitely a running quarterback going 3-4 for 24 yards passing and rushing 7 times for 49 yards, one of those for a TD. Late in the game true freshman Katravis March was 4-5 for 10 yards. Cade Fortin, a North Carolina transfer, was inactive for the opener, but could play this week. The Bulls only had 102 yards passing as opposed to 326 yards rushing. The USF defense gave up 284 yards to the triple option run by The Citadel. Kyren Williams will run all over them. Ian Book and the first team should be on the sideline after the first drive of the 3rd at the latest. Having said all that, I sure wish we were up there. We had an absolute blast in 2011.

Aside from the scoreboard, the Irish have a decided edge in yardage (279 to 65) and first downs (15 to 1). Total dom domination so far.
