This upcoming tilt with Notre Dame

Is starting to look eerily similar to the 1993 clash between them and FSU. Gonna be a lot of hype and build up next week.

Trying to think...have we ever had a top-5 matchup on the road?

I know we’ve had at least a couple at home (2016 Looovulll... 2013 FSU- yikes)
But I can’t think of one on the opponent’s home field.

We’ll beat ND in their house by 25 points unless Dabo takes the foot off the pedal. I believe Dabo will have the team humming good by then!
I’ll never forget that look on Brian Kelly’s face when Death Valley slapped him in the face! ????

A little. Those were probably the two best teams in the

country in 1993 though. If not, certainly 2 of the top 3 with Nebraska there in the mix. And of course they were ranked #1 and #2 at the time which is largely what inspired the first ever College Gameday.
I don't think ND is quite on that level this year despite their #4 ranking. I think the top 3 teams are pretty clearly Clemson, OSU, and Bama, and ND probably slots in somewhere in the 5-8 range.
It's still going to be a huge game though - barring it getting spoiled by a huge upset this weekend.
