Notre Dame has a difficult schedule this year following its BCS National Championship Game berth last season. The Irish have road games against Michigan and Stanford and will be tested at home against Michigan State, Oklahoma and USC. However, Brian Kelly is expecting that his team’s most challenging task will come on Jan. 7.
There are only 12 guaranteed games on Notre Dame’s schedule this upcoming season, but Kelly has decided to pencil in a 13th on the team’s official schedule that is hanging at its facility.

Obviously, Kelly is trying to motivate his players to get back to the place the position they were in last season. That will be no easy task. The Irish lost 42-14 to Alabama in the BCS National Championship Game last season. Kelly is hoping their fortune will be different this season, and it looks like he’s at least expecting to get another shot.
