## Resource

Notre Dame Secures Future Matchups: Stanford and Kent State Join the Schedule Notre Dame has confirmed games against Stanford for 2027 and 2028, keeping their rivalry alive. Theyve also added Kent State to the 2027 schedule, securing eleven of their twelve regular season games for that year. The Stanford series was in doubt due to conference realignments, but its now set. Notre Dame also has eleven opponents confirmed for 2028, including Stanford again. The Kent State game is notable as its the first time these two programs will meet on the field, with a historical connection through legendary coach Lou Holtz and current coach Marcus Freeman.
