Despite an upset loss as heavy favorites against Northern Illinois, Notre Dame proceeded to win their next 10 games, including ranked wins over Louisville, Navy, and Army, and made their 3rd College Football Playoff appearance, their first in the inaugural 12-team playoff. They defeated the Indiana Hoosiers, 27–17, in their first round home game. Their playoff victory over Indiana marked the first time a home game would air on ESPN and ABC since 1990. The reason it aired on those networks instead of NBC was due to the fact that playoff games aren't part of Notre Dame's deal with NBC. The Irish would then defeat the Georgia Bulldogs, 23–10, in the quarterfinal Sugar Bowl. The Sugar Bowl victory was the program's first win in a New Year's Six bowl game since 1994, ending the Irish's ten game losing streak in such games. The Irish then defeated the Penn State Nittany Lions, 27–24, in the semifinal Orange Bowl. With the win, the Irish improved to 7–0 against AP ranked teams during the season, the team's most ranked wins in the poll era. Also with this win, Freeman, who is of mixed black and South Korean ancestry, became the first African American, as well as the first Asian, head coach to reach a Division I college football national championship.

Notre Dame was one of four teams (the others being Ohio State, Penn State, and Texas) to play 16 games in 2024; no NCAA Division I team had played more than 15 games since the 1914 Carlisle Indians. The Fighting Irish finished the season tied with Ohio State for the second-best win percentage in the country (.875), behind only the 13–1 Oregon Ducks (.929).

Notre Dame wore special blue-gray uniforms, a nod to the blue-gray sky mentioned in Grantland Rice's 1924 "Four Horsemen" dispatch in his opening line, "outlined against a blue-gray October sky, the Four Horsemen rode again." While the shiny gold uniform numbers represent the Gothic Blackletter of New York City's newspaper mastheads. Notre Dame again won easily, 49–14, handing Army their first loss of the season.
