The University of Notre Dame officially released its 2020 football schedule that will have six home games plus the Shamrock Series versus Wisconsin at Green Bay’s Lambeau Field, versus Wisconsin. The top talking points include:

• Opening with Navy for the first time since the 12-1 campaign in 2012.

• The first meeting ever against the University of Arkansas, which will be the second game of the season.

• Playing in four NFL Stadiums: New Jersey's MetLife (Navy), Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, N.C. (Wake Forest), Lambeau (Wisconsin) and Heinz Field (Pitt), not to mention the temporary home of the Los Angeles Rams with the trip to the Los Angeles Coliseum.

• Unless it is a typo, the game at Pitt on Oct. 16 is listed as a Friday night clash — the week before Notre Dame’s bye.
