Asked by Fort Wayne Journal Gazette reporter Michael Rothstein about potentially playing the University of Wisconsin football team in a nonconference series, Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick said that he and Barry Alvarez have spoken but not about specifics. Here’s a link to Rothstein’s blog.
“At this time of year, everybody talks to everybody,” Swarbrick told Rothstein. “As you know, it’s a real Rubik’s Cube of trying to fit everything together. Would we be interested in playing Wisconsin? Absolutely. Great football tradition. Great school.”
