Two legendary programs for two very different reasons are about to meet for the first time ever.  Football fans in Boise? They can hardly contain themselves.

Just days ago, as he usually does, Athletic Director Jeramiah Dickey fired up the 'excitement machine' -- also known as his Twitter account. Dickey, more than most in Boise State's recent history, is very active on X (the app formerly known as Twitter) and now he's really done it. Fans often assume that his announcements will be about conference re-alignment, stadium expansion, or landing major recruits.

This week the news went public: Boise State will be playing a road game AT Notre Dame during the regular season.

As far as 'true road games' are concerned, this matchup is arguably the biggest in program history. Frankly, there's no arguing going on at all. Fans seem to agree that it is indeed the biggest announcement from the program.

The reaction online-- from Boise State fans AND Notre Dame fans has been loud and positive! Take a look at some of the biggest, below:

 


   

 


The game will be in the 2025 season--set to be held on October 4th.

The legendary stadium that Notre Dame calls home, which features 'Touchdown Jesus', seats 77,622 fans. That will make it the fourth largest road game for Boise State-- following Georgia, South Carolina, and Michigan State, respectively.
