Get Notre Dame Fighting Irish scores in code

The events endpoint returns the whole College Football scoreboard, so keep the games where either team id is 87.

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $RSA_API_KEY" \
  "https://www.realtimesportsapi.com/api/v1/sports/football/leagues/college-football/teams/87"

# This team's games in the current scoreboard (filter by team id 87)
curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $RSA_API_KEY" "https://www.realtimesportsapi.com/api/v1/sports/football/leagues/college-football/events" \
  | jq '.data[] | select(.homeTeam.id == "87" or .awayTeam.id == "87") | {name, date, status: .status.detail, home: .homeTeam.score, away: .awayTeam.score}'

const TEAM_ID = "87"; // Notre Dame Fighting Irish
const res = await fetch("https://www.realtimesportsapi.com/api/v1/sports/football/leagues/college-football/events", {
  headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.RSA_API_KEY}` }
});
const { data } = await res.json();

FAQ

How do I get live Notre Dame Fighting Irish scores in JSON?

Call GET https://www.realtimesportsapi.com/api/v1/sports/football/leagues/college-football/events/live with a free API key and keep the games where homeTeam.id or awayTeam.id is "87". The live endpoint returns the score, period, clock and status for games in progress. Data is aggregated from public sources and is typically 20-30 seconds behind live play (about 1 second after our source). There is no SLA.

Is there a free Notre Dame Fighting Irish API?

Yes. The Free plan of Realtime Sports API is $0 with 1,000 calls in the first 30 days, then 125 calls per month, no card. The same key covers every College Football team and the other leagues.

What is the Notre Dame Fighting Irish team id?

"87" in league "college-football" (sport "football"). Use it with /sports/football/leagues/college-football/teams/87 for team details and /sports/football/leagues/college-football/teams/87/roster for the roster, and to filter events by homeTeam.id or awayTeam.id.

When is the next Notre Dame Fighting Irish game?

Notre Dame Fighting Irish host Stanford Cardinal on Sat, Oct 10, 3:30 PM ET at Notre Dame Stadium. Times are US Eastern; this page refreshes hourly.

Does the API include Notre Dame Fighting Irish betting odds?

Yes, for upcoming College Football games that have a line: GET /sports/football/leagues/college-football/events/{eventId}/odds returns the spread, moneyline and total from a single source book, and /odds/history returns line moves. It is not a multi-book comparison feed.

Can I get Notre Dame Fighting Irish score alerts pushed to me?

Yes, on paid plans: register a webhook for event.score_change and event.final filtered to league "college-football", then keep deliveries where data.homeTeam.id or data.awayTeam.id is "87" (webhooks filter by league, not team). WebSocket works the same way.
