The Notre Dame football team is trying to get off to a good start in 2021, and here is our preview of their matchup against Florida State.

On Sunday night, the 2021 Notre Dame football team will finally play a game that counts, as they head down to Tallahassee to take on the Florida State Seminoles. The Irish have seen a lot of changes on the roster this offseason, especially in some key areas, so it will be interesting to see how the season opener goes.

This offseason, 14 members of the 2020 team went to the NFL, including eighty percent of the starting offensive line, an All-American linebacker, and the all-time winningest quarterback in school history.

As we saw in the Week 1 games that have taken place so far, anything can happen, just ask the University of North Carolina. The Irish cannot go into this game thinking they will stomp the Seminoles, because Florida State is a proud program, and there are more than enough elite players on the other sideline in this one.

Overall, it is going to be an exciting matchup, as the 2021 season is finally here. With that said, here is our game preview, and prediction for the season opener.
