The second set of College Football Playoff rankings were released on Tuesday night in an abbreviated show — which was much appreciated. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish moved up two spots thanks to a loss from Georgia to Ole Miss and a loss from Miami to Georgia Tech.

Notre Dame has yet to complete its 2025 schedule, but we now know who the Fighting Irish will play in the season opener. Irish Breakdown has confirmed the report that Notre Dame will kick off the 2025 season with a road contest at Miami.
