The only reason they are still relevant is because of the weak schedule they play every year

That's a pet peeve of mine, that Notre Dame plays a weak schedule. They roughly play the same number of top end teams as any school in a major conference. They just get dinged because they play a lot of service academies, never mind that teams in power conferences play Vandy/Northwestern/Wake Forest/Cal/Colorado along with a couple of cupcake non-conference games.

Since 2020, in the regular season they've played
Florida State, twice
USC, four times
Ohio State, twice
Clemson, three times
North Carolina, three times
Wisconsin

Over the next four years they will play
Texas A&M, twice
Florida State, twice
USC, three times
Wisconsin
North Carolina, twice
Miami
