No. 11 Notre Dame hosts No. 1 Miami on Saturday with its playoff hopes on the line
The Daily South Bend team
If you've felt the buzz around town, here's why. No. 11 Notre Dame hosts top-ranked Miami on Saturday night, and the Hurricanes bring one of the nation's top offenses to face a strong Irish defense. Both teams will be missing key players.

The stakes are high. The Irish slotted 11th because of a lack of quality wins, and the College Football Committee has essentially determined they must win or their chances of making the field will be incredibly slim. Senior Luke Barinaga said it's "win or go home."
