Notre Dame vs. Texas online live stream, TV broadcast information, and predictions. The Fighting Irish and Longhorns will meet in South Bend to open the season.
August 30, 2015When it comes big-time names, it doesn’t get much more marquee than Notre Dame vs Texas.
Charlie Strong is entering his second season with the Longhorns, and walking out of South Bend with a win would be a national statement. In order to do so, Texas must play above the current state of the program.
Brian Kelly, on the other hand, is looking to bounce back from an 8-5 campaign in 2014 that saw the wheels fall off late in the year with four straight losses to end the regular season. Outside of the 2012 run to the national title game, Kelly has failed to lead the Fighting Irish to double-digit wins in any season. The Irish faithful expect more than eight and nine win seasons, especially when a coach is entering his sixth year.
It goes without saying, but both programs and coaches needs this game. Not in the worst kind of way, but in a really big way.
Below is everything you need to know about the game, including the Notre Dame vs. Texas live stream options, TV broadcast information, key players, and prediction.
The Texas defense is going to rise up and stun the Irish offense. It’s not going to be a smooth effort on either offensive side, but the Longhorns are going to come into the tough road trip flying. The problem for Texas, though, will be a Notre Dame defense that will keep it close until Zaire finally breaks through in the second half. Notre Dame will win, but the style points won’t be there.
