Sunday night’s prime-time matchup will feature new starting quarterbacks for both teams, as Notre Dame named CJ Carr its starting quarterback while Miami landed former Georgia quarterback Carson Beck in the transfer portal to be the successor to Cam Ward.
Marcus Freeman’s team is looking to make another national championship run after finishing as the runner-up to Ohio State last season. Headlining the Irish’s roster is their running back room. Notre Dame returns both Jeremiyah Love and Jadarian Price to the unit after they combined for over 1,800 rushing yards and 24 touchdowns last season.
The Hurricanes enter the season with a lot of questions and eyes on them after they missed out on the College Football Playoff last year (they lost two of their final three games after starting the season 9-0).
