Marshall began its season with a victory defeating Norfolk State, 55-3, last Saturday. In his first start at Marshall after transferring from Texas Tech, quarterback Henry Colombi registered the second-best completion percentage in school history (92.3) completing 24 of 26 passing attempts for 205 yards and a touchdown while running backs Ethan Payne (113 yds, 2 tds) and Khalan Laborn (102 yds, 2 tds) combined for 215 rushing yards and four touchdowns.

NBC Sports’ Jac Collinsworth (play-by-play) and Jason Garrett (game analyst) will call the game along with Zora Stephenson (sideline reporter) and Terry McAulay (rules analyst).

Kathryn Tappen will host pregame, halftime and postgame coverage from Notre Dame Stadium alongside guest analysts and alums Ahmad Bradshaw (Marshall) and Chris Zorich (Notre Dame). Throughout the season, Tappen will be joined each game by alums from the Fighting Irish and their opponent.

A two-time Super Bowl champion, Bradshaw spent nine years in the NFL playing running back for the New York Giants and Indianapolis Colts. He won first-team Conference USA honors and tied for third in the nation in rushing touchdowns (19) as a junior at Marshall in 2006.

A member of the College Football Hall of Fame, Zorich was a two-time consensus All-American selection in 1989 and 1990 and was a member of the 1988 national championship-winning Notre Dame team. Following college, Zorich was a six-year NFL veteran as a defensive lineman for the Chicago Bears and Washington Redskins.

The ND on NBC Podcast, hosted by former Notre Dame wide receiver Corey Robinson, returned last week and will release weekly episodes throughout the season. On the first episode of the year, Robinson speaks with head coach Marcus Freeman and defensive lineman Jayson Ademilola. Episodes are released every Wednesday, and can be listened to here and wherever you listen to podcasts.

Throughout the 2022 season, Peacock will simulstream all Notre Dame games aired live on NBC, including pre- and postgame coverage.
