I subscribe to a calendar showing ND football games, and for some reason it added a game vs Clemson on September 12th and removed the one on November 7th

Hopefully, It's A Day Game

I suspect that all games will be day games; NO night games.

Get the game in before season can be shut down.

Also, the ACC wouldn't want them to play in cold weather. *

They both want to be able to make a claim to a high ranking if the season gets curtailed, which will help recruiting. Clemson has made a living off its ND victories. The 2015 ND-Clemson game covers one wall of their cafeteria.

ND is definitely their Super Bowl, hahahahaha *

Schedule. And IMHO, an early season contest offers the best opportunity for the game not to proceed according to form.
