Michigan Football Announces Future Home-And-Home Series With Notre Dame

Jim Harbaugh had been hinting that he'd like to continue the matchups with Notre Dame.

Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh had been asked several times this week about potential future matchups with Notre Dame and he definitely endorsed facing the Irish down the road. Today, the athletic department confirmed what many thought was in the works by announcing a future series with Notre Dame.

The University of Michigan Athletic Department announced the addition of a home-and-home series with Notre Dame in 2033 and 2034. The Wolverines and Irish will renew their rivalry with games on Sept. 3, 2033 in Ann Arbor and Sept. 2, 2034 in South Bend.

U-M has a 24-18-1 record all-time against ND. The Wolverines have a 14-7 mark at Michigan Stadium, a 9-11-1 record at Notre Dame Stadium and defeated the Irish by a 23-0 score in Toledo during the 1902 season.

Our guy Steve Deace has a theory about what the cancelling of the UCLA series means and how it might impact other future decisions about who and where Michigan will play.

Looking at this, if I had to guess 2022 will be the foreign soil game Jimmy alluded to, since Michigan now has 7 home games. 2023 will be a one off home game with somebody like Colorado in 2016 or BYU in 2015. https://t.co/D52SybgIwS
