It should be a gorgeous day for spring football, with today’s forecast in South Bend being sunny and around 65 degrees come kickoff.

Notre Dame will play this game as OFFENSE (Blue) vs DEFENSE (White) and employ a similar scoring system as to what they had last year: Offense Scores Six points for a touchdown One point for a PAT One point for each first down Two points for each play over 20 yards Three points for a made field goal Two points for a two-point conversion Defense Scores One point for forcing a punt Five points for a takeaway in plus territory Seven points for a takeaway in minus territory 12 points for a defensive score Three points for blocking a field goal attempt Two points for a PAT returned for a score Two points for a failed two-point conversion Two points for a fourth-down stop in plus territory or a missed field goal Three points for a fourth-down stop in minus territory WHEN, WHERE, HOW TO WATCH WHEN: Saturday, April 25 @ 2:00 PM WHERE: Notre Dame Stadium, South Bend, Indiana HOW TO WATCH: Peacock GAME THREAD The game thread is open below.
