Notre Dame football vs Cal: Start time, TV channel and how to watch online

The Notre Dame football team takes on Cal in this Week 3 match-up inside Notre Dame Stadium and here is the information you need to tune in. 

Notre Dame football (0-2) is looking to get their season turned around this Saturday when the undefeated California Golden Bears (2-0) come to South Bend this weekend. Despite Cal being undefeated early in the season and off to a strong start, and with the Irish struggling out the gate, Notre Dame is an 11-point favorite this week.

While many Notre Dame fans will disagree with the Irish being the 11-point favorite, it’s clear that Vegas has more confidence in the Irish. Notre Dame will be without starting quarterback Tyler Buchner who suffered a season-ending injury last week vs Marshall. Drew Pyne will now be QB 1 and will make his first start in his Notre Dame career vs the Golden Bears.

This Saturday it will be gut check time for the Fighting Irish football team with their backs up against the wall and the playoff hopes out the window. This game will show what type of leadership and heart this football team has this week.

I think Drew Pyne could be the leader that the Irish offense and team need at this very moment. Look for the Irish to rally around Pyne and do whatever it takes to get a win on Saturday. This will be no easy task for a struggling Irish offense going up against a very stingy and well-coached defensive team. I think it will be a rock fight for 4 quarters, but ultimately, I think the Irish get it done and finally get head coach Marcus Freeman’s career win No.1.
