The broadcasting team on the other hand is going to be a major contributor to a greater viewing experience for the fans who will be watching the game live on television.

Notre Dame Football Commentators

Notre Dame commentators are Jac Collinsworth as the play-by-play voice and Jason Garrett as the color commentator. They will be the voice for the 2023 season.

The two of them will be supporting each other with Collinsworth calling the game and Garrett will be analyzing the game and will also entertain the viewers with his expertise.

Jac Collinsworth

Collinsworth started his broadcasting career in 2013 while he was a student at the  University of Notre Dame. He had joined NBC and served as a member of the sideline production team for Notre Dame football.

He later transitioned to becoming a sideline reporter in 2016 and 2017 for the University's Blue-Gold spring football game which was produced by NBC.

In both 2016 and 2017, he also covered the Fighting Irish's pro day for the NFL Network. After he graduated, he joined ESPN as a features reporter for Sunday NFL Countdown and later hosted NFL Live in 2018.

Collinsworth once again joined NBC in 2020 and has been part of the network ever since. He first started as the co-host of Football Night in America. He was then the pre and post-game show host for Notre Dame Football on NBC.

He has been the lead play-by-play commentator of the Fighting Irish football since 2022 and has been doing an outstanding job.

Jason Garrett

Jason Calvin Garrett is a former football player who played in the NFL for 16 seasons and is a three-time Super Bowl winner. He played as a quarterback and later transitioned into coaching. He is a former head coach of the Dallas Cowboys.

Garrett has a wealth of experience when it comes to football as he is a former player and coach. He has never been away from football in his entire life. Right after his coaching career, he started his broadcasting career.

He joined NBC in April 2022 as an analyst for the network's broadcast of the USFL. After three months, he joined Collinsworth as an analyst for Notre Dame Football on NBC.

His experience and ability to break down plays and predict the game is what makes viewing worth it. HIs tons of experience will be a great addition to the broadcasting of the college football team's live coverage.

Noah Eagle and Paul Burmeister

Noah Eagle and Paul Burmeister will be the fill-in play-by-play commentators for Notre Dame football starting from the 2023 season.

Eagle and Burmeister are both play-by-play commentators for NBC's coverage of the 2023 college football season. Noah Eagle will be calling Big Ten Saturday Nights and Paul Burmeister will call Big Ten Football games.

Notre Dame Broadcast Team

Notre Dame football broadcasters are Zora Stephenson who is assigned as a sideline reporter and Terry McAulay will be serving as the rules analyst in 2023.

The two members of the broadcasting teams will be joining the two commentators for all of the Notre Dame Football games and select Big Ten Football games this season.

Zora Stephenson

Stephenson has been serving as the sideline reporter for the coverage of Notre Dame Football on NBC since 2022. She also takes on the same responsibility for the coverage of the USFL.

Back in April 2021, she became the first woman to call for a Buck's game. Two months later, she joined NBC Sports and was also a host for the 2022 Notre Dame Football Pro Day.

Apart from covering college football games of the Fighting Irish, she has been a sideline and digital reporter for the Milwaukee Bucks since 2019.

Terry McAulay

McAulay is the perfect choice for the rules analyst position since he served as an NFL official from 1998 to 2018. He has been a referee for the biggest games in his long career having officiated seven conference championships and three Super Bowls.

He joined NBC Sports right after retiring in June 2018 and started his stint as the rules analyst for Sunday Night Football and Notre Dame football.

His experience as an official for so many years will give the viewers an accurate and easy-to-understand breakdown of the rules. The stoppages and fouls can sometimes get very confusing and the former referee will be the best person to explain it.

Notre Dame radio broadcasters are:

  • Paul Burmeister - Play-by-play announcer
  • Ryan Harris - Color commentator/Analyst
  • Jack Nolan - Network Studio Host
