The Notre Dame football team has some solid home games on the slate in 2021, and here are three that the fans won’t want to miss.

The 2021 Notre Dame football team is on a mission to get back to the College Football Playoff and will try to do so without 14 of their best players, all of whom went onto the NFL this past offseason. However, there is a ton of talent remaining, and now that fans are allowed back into the stands, Notre Dame Stadium is going to be rocking once again.

Here, we look at three home games that the Irish fans will not want to miss this season.

No. 3: Toledo Rockets

While the Toledo Rockets will likely not be much of a challenge for the Irish, it is a game you will not want to miss, as fans will finally be allowed back inside Notre Dame Stadium. You can expect the stadium to be rocking for this one, as the Irish return home after an opening week primetime matchup against Florida State.

Toledo has some nice pieces, including running back Bryant Koback on offense, and Jamal Hines on defense, but for the most part, this should be an opportunity for Jack Coan and this offense to really get in sync. Between the tailgating, and the likely thrashing once the game starts, this is a game you will not want to miss in 2021.
