Notre Dame's position in the major college football polls showed little change in the latest releases. The Fighting Irish remained in the same general range in both the Associated Press Top 25 and the USA Today Coaches Poll published on November 1, 2026.
The team's most recent game was against the Navy Midshipmen at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, on October 31, 2026. Head coach Marcus Freeman was on the sideline for that contest.
Poll voters appeared to keep Notre Dame's ranking stable after the matchup, with no significant movement up or down in either poll.
