REPORT:
NOTRE DAME-BYU
SERIES IN DOUBT
The future of the Notre
Dame-BYU series is in limbo,
according to Deseret News
reporter Jeff Call.
In 2010, the Fighting Irish
and Cougars signed a six-
game agreement to play in
two three-game clusters —
two at Notre Dame and one
in Provo, Utah. Notre Dame
hosted BYU in 2012 and
2013, hard-fought 17-14 and
23-13 victories, respectively.
However, Notre Dame's
2012 agreement with the
Atlantic Coast Conference
as a partial football mem
-
ber (the Irish will play five
games against ACC schools
each season) has thrown a
proverbial wrench into pre-
existing scheduling agree-
ments. Notre Dame's series'
with longtime Big Ten rivals
Purdue, Michigan State and
Michigan already have been
halted to a degree (the Irish
will play no Big Ten teams
in 2015).
BYU athletics director Tom
Holmoe told Call there cur
-
rently is no scheduled date
for Notre Dame to make the
return trip to Provo to com-
plete the first three-game
cluster. Nothing has been set
for any of the three games in
the second cluster.
