Official Game Time and TV Announced for Potential CFP Seeding Matchup
In this story:
New season, new opportunities for the Miami Hurricanes as they prepare for one of the best seasons in program history. They are the favorites to win the ACC for the second straight season and have the roster to match it on paper.
Moreover, the Hurricanes will have some resume-building games on their schedule next season, but none more important than a rematch against Notre Dame in South Bend.
After the Hurricanes defeated the Fighting Irish 27-24 in the opening game of the season, this pending rematch was always going to be one of the best and most intriguing games of the season. What makes it better is that the game is in November.
No complaining about when both teams played for a potential spot in the College Football Playoff, even though one team had a clear head-to-head edge. This is the best time for two of the projected powerhouses to play each other.
Now, this epic rivalry has a game time set: the Canes will face off against the Irish on Nov. 7 at 7:30 p.m. ET on NBC/Peacock.
GAME TIME SET! 🙌

However, before the Canes can even think about this game, they have nine games to play. Clemson is a sleeper team in the ACC this season as Dabo Swinney prepares for an awe-inspiring season after struggles over the past few seasons.
Wake Forest had one of its best seasons in years last year and looks to upset the Canes, along with Clemson and rivals Florida State. The Seminoles are not in the same class as the other teams, but in rivalry games, anything can happen.
These games build up to the Canes taking on the Fighting Irish in a matchup that could be a top-five-ranked game between the two programs. Both have some of the best rosters in the country, and a matchup like this would take center stage.
