Notre Dame aims for revenge against Miami this season
Summary

Notre Dame is fixated on a 'revenge tour' this season, particularly targeting Miami after losing to them last year. The Irish feel slighted after the College Football Playoff selection committee favored Miami over them, despite both teams having two losses. Coach Marcus Freeman aims to channel this focus as they navigate through what is considered an easier schedule before facing Miami in November. Some analysts suggest that holding onto past grievances could distract from the team's potential for success this season. The Irish appear to have a strong roster that could contend for a national title.
