SOUTH BEND — Notre Dame football has added another Big Ten future opponent with a home-and-home now scheduled with Washington.

Notre Dame is 8-0 all-time against Washington, with the last meeting coming in 2009, a 37-30 overtime win at home for the Irish.

Former safety Kyle McCarthy, now a leading football agent with Athletes First, recorded a pass breakup on fourth down to secure the win for Notre Dame.

The series dates to 1948, when Notre Dame rolled 46-0 at home. A 27-7 Irish win followed the next year at Husky Stadium on the way to a fourth national title of the decade for coach Frank Leahy.
