Notre Dame Releases ‘Faith and Belief’ Hype Video Before Prime-Time Miami Showdown

Notre Dame released its Game 9 hype video, “Faith and Belief,” ahead of Saturday’s prime-time matchup with Miami at Notre Dame Stadium. The 11th-ranked Irish host the top-ranked Hurricanes on NBC, and Fighting Irish Media builds the piece around the programs’ shared history rather than this season’s stakes. “Years go by, names change, generations come and go, but history has a way of repeating itself,” the narration says.

The video leans most heavily on 1988, splicing in the call from that meeting: “Price keeping it. He’ll go for the touchdown. Interception, first down. That is history.” From there, it pivots to the current team, with the narration framing the past as a reference point rather than a script. “It leaves a blueprint. It shows what it took.” The closing line: “History doesn’t decide what happens next. That decision belongs to us.”

• The spot opens with the school’s founding, with one voice saying, “If you believe it, you’ll feel it.”
• On the matchup itself: “Two historic brands. This is what you live for.”
• The narration calls Notre Dame and Miami “college football’s biggest names, meeting with everything on the line.”
• A player voice handles the turn away from 1988: “We’re here to make it.”
• Locker-room framing near the end: “Do it for somebody else. Do it for these guys in this room.”
