2020 Notre Dame Fighting Irish football Conference Atlantic Coast Conference Coaches No. 5 AP No. 5 2020 record 10–2 (9–0 ACC) Head coach Brian Kelly (11th season)Offensive coordinator Tommy Rees (1st season)Defensive coordinator Clark Lea (3rd season)Base defense 4–2–5 Home stadium Notre Dame Stadium (Capacity: 77,622)(Limited Capacity due to COVID-19 Restrictions)Seasons
The 2020 Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team represented the University of Notre Dame in the 2020 NCAA Division I FBS football season . The team was led by Brian Kelly in his 11th season at Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish played their home games at Notre Dame Stadium in South Bend, Indiana .
Because the Power Five conferences enforced restrictions on non-conference games in light of the COVID-19 pandemic , Notre Dame played a full Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) schedule for the 2020 season (expanding upon an existing relationship in all other sports besides football and ice hockey). This was the first season in several decades that Notre Dame did not play its traditional intersectional rivalry games against Navy (previously played every season since 1927), USC (since 1946), or Stanford (since 1997).
After the cancellation of the Wake Forest game scheduled for December 12 by the ACC, due to an evaluation of the three teams in contention to play in the ACC Championship Game ,[1] Notre Dame clinched a spot in the ACC Championship Game, which they went on to lose to Clemson .
The Fighting Irish were subsequently ranked fourth in the final College Football Playoff (CFP) rankings, securing a spot in the Rose Bowl , a CFP semifinal game, against top–ranked Alabama . Notre Dame lost to Alabama on New Year's Day, the eventual national champion , ending the season with a 10–2 record.
Previous season [ ]
The 2019 Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team finished 11–2 on the season with a 33–9 victory over Iowa State in the Camping World Bowl in Orlando, Florida. They finished at No. 12 in the final AP Poll of the 2019 season .
Coaching changes [ ]
Chip Long , former offensive coordinator of the Fighting Irish, was relieved of his duties by Notre Dame and became an offensive analyst at University of Tennessee .

Schedule [ ]
The 2020 schedule was officially released on December 7, 2017.[2]
Due to suspensions of athletic programs nationwide as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic , the team called off the 2020 edition of its spring Blue-Gold Game.[3] The Emerald Isle Classic game against Navy at Aviva Stadium in Dublin , Ireland was tentatively rescheduled for Navy–Marine Corps Memorial Stadium in Annapolis, Maryland ,[4] and three games were scrapped after the Big Ten and Pac-12 elected to restrict play to conference opponents only. This included a game scheduled against Wisconsin on October 3 (which was to be played at Lambeau Field in Green Bay as a Shamrock Series game),[5] the team's rivalry game against Stanford , and the team's rivalry game against USC (resulting in its postponement for the first time since World War II ).[6] [7]
In regards to replacing the canceled games, head coach Brian Kelly told ESPN's Mike Greenberg that "our phone is ringing off the hook right now in terms of teams looking for games", and that Notre Dame athletics director Jack Swarbrick had been communicating with ACC commissioner John Swofford ; as per its membership in most other sports, Notre Dame typically plays five games against ACC opponents per-season.[8] On July 29, 2020, the ACC officially announced that Notre Dame would play its 2020 season within the conference, with 10 games against ACC opponents, a non-conference game of its choice against an in-state opponent, and being eligible to compete for the conference championship . The team contributed revenue from its broadcast rights with NBC into the conference's shared pool, split between all ACC members and Notre Dame.[9]
Notre Dame's opening game against Duke marked the first time that the Fighting Irish had ever competed in, or won a conference game.[10]
