IU and the University of Notre Dame have scheduled a home-and-home football series, according to a Monday release from IU Athletics. The teams will play at Notre Dame Stadium in South Bend, Indiana, on August 31, 2030, and at Memorial Stadium in Bloomington on September 27, 2031.

The two teams last played in 1991 in South Bend, in the first game broadcast as a part of Notre Dame’s contract with NBC to exclusively televise the team’s home games. The schools last played in Bloomington in 1950, a game IU won 20-7 for its most recent win in the series.

The Fighting Irish lead the all-time series 23-5-1.

"I'm looking forward to facing one of the most storied programs in the history of college football," IU head coach Tom Allen said in a statement. "It's tremendous for the state of Indiana and for our fans, and it will be a great opportunity for our players."
