Here’s how you can watch Saturday afternoon’s Notre Dame vs Syracuse game from MetLife Stadium online.

Notre Dame has had the roughest start to the season imaginable. Starting No. 10 in the rankings, the Fighting Irish lost the season opener to Texas on the road before beating Nevada and then dropping to Michigan State and Duke at home. The Fighting Irish are now out of the rankings and all College Football Playoff hopes are crushed.

DeShone Kizer has been effective in the aerial attack, passing for 1,096 yards, 11 touchdowns and three interceptions with a 62 percent completion rate. Equanimeous St. Brown has emerged as his favorite target, catching 21 passes for 359 yards and four touchdowns.

Josh Adams has seemingly taken over for Tarean Folston in the run game, recording 238 yards and a touchdown on 5.1 yards per carry. Folston hasn’t been out of the game plan completely, though, rushing for 186 yards and five touchdowns on 4.3 yards per touch.

Syracuse has been struggling through four weeks, putting up a 2-2 record, but the wins aren’t exactly against impressive teams — Connecticut and Colgate. The Orange are still seeking a signature win, but getting one against an angry Notre Dame team is unlikely.

Eric Dungey has put up big numbers in the passing game, slinging the ball for 1,367 yards and nine touchdowns with a 65 percent completion rate. Amba Etta-Tawo has clearly been the top target for the quarterback, catching 40 passes for 706 yards and five touchdowns.

Don’t expect too much from Dontae Strickland and the run game, though, as it averages just about 125 yards per game.

Notre Dame has started the season a mediocre 1-3, but the Fighting Irish should have a nice comeback game against the hapless Syracuse Orange. The playoff is out of the question, but a double-digit win in Week 5 is not.
