## Resource

Notre Dame football bounced back from early-season setbacks with a stunning 10-game winning streak last year—but fell just short of the College Football Playoff. Now, under coach Marcus Freeman, they’re locked in for 2026, favored in every game on their loaded schedule, from Lambeau Field to Notre Dame Stadium and beyond. With high expectations and a path designed for dominance, the Fighting Irish are building something special—and all eyes are on South Bend to see if they finally crack the playoff picture.
