Notre Dame Releases 2025 Home Football Kickoff Times

May 12, 2025
4,764

Notre Dame made a big announcement on Monday, unveiling the kickoff times for its 2025 home football schedule.

The Fighting Irish will host three primetime games as Texas A&M, USC and Navy will be 7:30 PM ET kickoffs. Purdue, Boise State, NC State and Syracuse will start at 3:30 PM ET. 

This marks the first time since 2018 that Notre Dame will host three night games inside Notre Dame Stadium. Back in 2018, the Irish played under the lights against Michigan, Stanford, and Florida State.

NBC will broadcast six of Notre Dame’s home games in 2025, with the exception of the NC State game, which will be exclusively streamed on Peacock.

This also sets up Notre Dame to potentially play six games in primetime (eastern time), as Miami will start at 7:30 PM, while games at Arkansas and Stanford remain strong candidates for late starts. 

The home slate will also feature a few historical notes. Notre Dame and Boise State will meet for the first time, and the Irish boast a 6-1 record against first-time opponents at home since 2013. Additionally, the game against Navy will be the first night game between the two programs at Notre Dame Stadium.
