The Shamrock Series will take a break as Notre Dame plans on showing off their new digs. After incorporating a 6-5-1 scheduling paradigm with the annual neutral site game, athletic director Jack Swarbrick confirmed that the series will take a year off before rebooting in 2018.
“In 2017, the first year in which we will compete in the renovated stadium, we thought it was important to maximize the opportunity for our fans to attend a home game,” Swarbrick said in a statement. “We look forward to restoring the Shamrock Series tradition in 2018 and the years beyond.”
