No. 6 Notre Dame Loses 27-24 to No. 10 Miami in Season Opener

News summary

Notre Dame, ranked No. 6, suffered a narrow 27-24 loss to No. 10 Miami in their 2025 season opener, leading to scrutiny of head coach Marcus Freeman's game strategy and overall leadership. Despite a strong fourth-quarter comeback led by quarterback CJ Carr, who threw for 221 yards and three touchdowns, Notre Dame's defense struggled to pressure Miami's quarterback, and the offensive game plan was criticized for underutilizing star running back Jeremiyah Love early in the game. Freeman acknowledged these issues and expressed confidence in his team's resilience and potential to improve as the season progresses, with the Fighting Irish preparing to face No. 19 Texas A&M next. Social media and fans questioned Freeman's ability to lead Notre Dame to a national title, drawing comparisons to previous coaching eras. Freeman highlighted the importance of developing backups at quarterback and maintaining competition among kickers, while also addressing recent rule changes ahead of the Miami game. The game sparked considerable buzz, with many noting the renewed rivalry and high expectations for Notre Dame's talented roster.
