What channel is Notre Dame vs. Louisville on Saturday? Time, TV schedule for Fighting Irish
After a heartbreaking loss to No. 3 Ohio State and a thrilling road victory against No. 21 Duke, both of which were decided in the final minute of regulation, No. 11 Notre Dame will continue its 2023 season with a game Saturday night against No. 25 Louisville at L&N Federal Credit Union Stadium in Louisville, Kentucky.
It will be the Fighting Irish’s third-consecutive game against a ranked opponent.
In the win against Duke, Audric Estime came through offensively for Notre Dame, rushing for a team-high 81 yards, 30 of which came on a game-winning touchdown run with 31 seconds remaining. That score was made possible by quarterback Sam Hartman scampering 17 yards to successfully convert a 4th and 16.

Their next challenge will come in Louisville, which is ranked for the first time since the COVID-shortened 2020 season. At 5-0, the Cardinals are one of 22 undefeated FBS teams remaining. They’ve achieved that success largely behind an offense averaging 37 points per game. Louisville is in its first season under coach Jeff Brohm, who played quarterback for the Cardinals from 1989-93. Brohm has faced Notre Dame once as a head coach, losing 27-13 in 2021 when he was at Purdue. His quarterback in that game, Jack Plummer, transferred to Louisville last offseason and is the Cardinals’ starter. In that 2021 loss, Plummer completed 25 of 36 passes for 187 yards and a touchdown.
It will be Hartman's second meeting against Louisville in as many years. While at Wake Forest last season, he was responsible for six turnovers (three interceptions and three fumbles) in a 48-21 loss to the Cardinals.
