SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Irish coach Marcus Freeman is eager for No. 8 Notre Dame’s home opener on Saturday against Marshall.

The Thundering Herd come to town with one of the nation’s most prolific ground games. Marshall ran for more than 300 yards in last week’s rout of FCS foe Norfolk State. But they’ll face a much stiffer challenge against Notre Dame’s defense.
