vs. No. 19 Army (rivalry)

The 2024 meeting between Army and Notre Dame at new Yankee Stadium commemorated the Notre Dame's Four Horsemen backfield that led them to an upset win over Army at the Polo Grounds in 1924.^[7] Notre Dame wore special blue-gray uniforms, a nod to the blue-gray sky mentioned in Grantland Rice's 1924 "Four Horsemen" dispatch in his opening line, "outlined against a blue-gray October sky, the Four Horsemen rode again." While the shiny gold uniform numbers represent the Gothic Blackletter of New York City's newspaper mastheads. Notre Dame again won easily, 49–14, handing Army their first loss of the season.
