Week 1 was a disappointment for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Notre Dame is coming off a bye week that followed a disappointing primetime road loss to the Miami Hurricanes in Week 1. The Fighting Irish have had two weeks to prepare, correct errors, and focus on getting back on track. Last year, the Texas A&M Aggies hosted the Notre Dame Fighting Irish in the season opener on prime time TV to bring in the head coach Mike Elko era. Notre Dame won impressively, 23-13, and went on to make the national championship game. This Week, under Touchdown Jesus, the Aggies have a chance for revenge in another prime-time matchup against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
On Saturday, September 13, 2025, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish will host the Texas A&M Aggies at Notre Dame Stadium in Notre Dame, IN. Kickoff time is at 7:30 p.m. ET with television coverage on NBC.
At the onset of the week, betting action at Bookmaker was a flurry of activity. Notre Dame is one of the biggest public brands on the board, and a prime-time NBC telecast against a quality opponent enhances the wagering appeal.
