The University of Notre Dame football team has announced the return of the Shamrock Series to Yankee Stadium in 2024. Notre Dame will face Army on November 23, 2024, celebrating the 100th anniversary of the fabled Four Horsemen backfield of Jim Crowley, Elmer Layden, Don Miller and Harry Stuhldreher and the game in which they were immortalized by Grantland Rice in the New York Herald Tribune – a 13-7 upset victory over Army in New York on October 18, 1924.
The game will be broadcast nationally on NBC and Peacock and marks the third Shamrock Series game to be played at Yankee Stadium. Notre Dame defeated Army, 27-3, in 2010 and Syracuse, 36-3, in 2018.
The Shamrock Series began in 2009 when Notre Dame started to ‘take a home game on the road’ in San Antonio. The Irish defeated Washington State, 40-14, in the Alamodome and have hosted 11 Shamrock Series games across the country, including Landover, MD, Chicago, IL, Arlington, TX, Indianapolis, IN, and Las Vegas, NV.
Shamrock Series game weekends feature more than just the game, as the University will plan a number of educational, service and fan-centric events in the New York metropolitan area leading up to the game.

Notre Dame is 11-0 in the Shamrock Series and will be meeting Army for the 52nd time overall (the Irish lead the all-time series 39-8-4). The series between the Fighting Irish and Black Knights was a fundamental element in the development of both programs and the annual trip to New York for fans of both teams played a key role in the first half of the 20th century in the marketing and celebration of college football as a truly national sport.
Notre Dame and Army have met at the home of the Yankees 23 times, including 22 times at the original Yankee Stadium (1925-29, ‘31-46, ‘69) and once at the current Yankee Stadium. The most recent contest in 2010 also marked the first college football game played at the current Stadium, which opened its doors in 2009.
The legendary Four Horsemen game against Army was held at the Polo Grounds, which was just across the Harlem River from where Yankee Stadium is situated, and the Irish have also faced the Black Knights at Ebbets Field in Brooklyn, Shea Stadium in Queens and Giants Stadium in New Jersey.
