Two programs that could benefit from a little ray of sunshine meet in the 2023 Sun Bowl in El Paso today, with the Notre Dame Fighting Irish team worn thin by a slew of NFL Draft declarations, and the Oregon State Beavers reeling from the departures of their head coach, starting QB and backup QB. This could be chaos.

Notre Dame vs Oregon State is live on CBS and Paramount Plus in the U.S.. Don't worry if you're away — you can watch Notre Dame vs Oregon State from anywhere with a VPN.

The Notre Dame vs Oregon State live stream takes place on Friday, December 29, 2023.

Unanimous All-American OT Joe Alt, 18-touchdown RB Audric Estime and QB Sam Hartman are among the Notre Dame stars to have pulled out of the 90th annual Sun Bowl to prepare for the 2024 Draft. And that's not all. Freshman duo Jaden Greathouse and Jordan Faison are their only genuinely healthy receivers.

In the buildup to the game, Notre Dame head coach Marcus Freeman made it abundantly clear that he's not overly thrilled about the situation he now finds himself in, and he's confirmed that Steve Angeli will take the reins having thrown just 25 passes this season, for four touchdowns and an interception.

Oregon State's situation isn't much better. Former head coach Jonathan Smith is off to Michigan State, and QB1 DJ Uiagalelei, scorer of 27 touchdowns this season, is in the transfer portal alongside QB2 Aidan Chiles, leaving new coach Trent Bray with no choice but to select QB3 Ben Gulbranson at center in his first game in charge.

At the time of publication, Notre Dame are -6 point favorites according to DraftKings.
