They open their conference schedule with a home date against Minnesota on Sept. 27.<\/p>\n As for Notre Dame, they really showed the kind of potent offense they possess even without suspended wide receiver DaVaris Daniels, scoring double-digit points in each quarter fo their game against Rice.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=66501&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n The Irish have won 30 of their last 38 games overall under Brian Kelly\u2019s leadership.<\/p>\n Kelly will need to figure out a way to slow dynamic Michigan quarterback Devin Gardner, who threw for 173 yards and three scores on 13-of-14 passing in last week\u2019s victory over Appalachian State.<\/p>\n The Wolverines also got their ground game going in that one. De\u2019Veon Smith racked up 115 yards on just eight carries, while Derrick Green turned his 15 carries into 170 yards.<\/p>\n For the Irish, quarterback Everett Golson returned after missing all of last season, and he didn\u2019t look like he\u2019s missed a beat, throwing for 295 yards and two scores, and running for three more scores on the ground.<\/p>\n [dfads params=’groups=63739&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]<\/p>\n Notre Dame outgained Rice 576-367 in that opening victory, while limiting a typically solid Owl rushing attack to 141 yards on the ground, allowing them into the red zone only twice, though they did permit points each time.<\/p>\n Michigan sports a 24-16-1 record in this all-time series. As this game looks like it could come down to a battle between the two quarterbacks, the smart money will be on Gardner, who lit up the Irish secondary in a thrilling 41-30 victory in last year\u2019s meeting between these teams.<\/p>\n\n
