Notre Dame 2025 Home Game Streaming Exclusively on Peacock

Notre Dame fans, mark your calendars because in 2025, the Fighting Irish will once again play a home game exclusively on NBC’s streaming app, Peacock. The big announcement was made during the Blue-Gold Game, which also aired on Peacock.

This year, Notre Dame’s schedule is packed with exciting matchups, but only one opponent, Boise State, made it to the College Football Playoff last year. Boise State will face off against the Fighting Irish at Notre Dame Stadium on October 4, with the game exclusively available on Peacock. This game is actually the first-ever meeting between Notre Dame and Boise State, adding even more excitement to the matchup.

With a tough schedule ahead for Notre Dame, the game against Boise State could potentially have implications for the College Football Playoff. Last season, the Broncos managed to bounce back from an out-of-conference loss at Oregon to secure a spot in the Playoff, making them a formidable opponent for the Fighting Irish.

While some fans, like myself, may have reservations about not being able to watch a Notre Dame home game on traditional television, the decision to air a game on Peacock is a strategic move to generate revenue and support the independence of the program. By partnering with NBC and embracing digital streaming platforms, Notre Dame is able to secure much-needed funding to continue their football legacy. It may not be everyone’s preferred way to watch the game, but it’s a necessary step to ensure Notre Dame’s future independence in college football.
