Notre Dame’s 2008 schedule:

2008 ND FOOTBALL

Sept. 20	at Michigan State
Sept. 27	PURDUE
Oct. 4	STANFORD
Oct. 11	at North Carolina
Oct. 18	Open Date

Nov. 1	PITTSBURGH

This is an interesting schedule. ND plays two difficult teams, and they are well spaced apart. The schedule also includes a tune up game before the Michigan game. Overall, I like this schedule. The only change I would make would be to replace Washington or Pittsburgh with a more powerful team. This would break up the monotony of mediocre opponents between Michigan and UM. However, I understand that Washington would have been considered a tough opponent when the game was scheduled.
