ND is gonna be under a TON of pressure now.

With the 9 game schedule in 2017 starting....that means only 3 OOC games. Now one is going to be against a BCS opponent no matter what.

Michigan, Michigan State, Purdue, USC, and Stanford play Notre Dame nearly every year. You have to think that all the Big 10 schools are going to get out of that matchup as soon as possible.

Michigan having an OOC of directional MI, Notre Dame, Oregon? or MSU having directional MI, Stanford, ND? I don't think so. Noone is going to be doing that, especially with the extra conference game.

I think ND is going to have to join up or find a whole bunch of new opponents.....
