Notre Dame is back on the schedule and Michigan is back in Beaver Stadium in 2006, Penn State athletic officials announced Thursday.
The Nittany Lions' 2006 schedule features six home games, with Akron and Louisiana Tech filling two of Penn State's nonconference spots. The third nonconference game will be at Notre Dame, where the Lions and the Fighting Irish will renew one of college football's greatest rivalries.
In Big Ten play, Penn State will have home games against Northwestern, Michigan, Illinois and Michigan State. It will be the Wolverines' first visit to Happy Valley since 2001, when Michigan beat the Lions, 20-0.
Penn State played at Michigan last year, and will return for a road game in 2005. The Wolverines rotate off Penn State's schedule in 2003 and 2004.
Big Ten road games include Ohio State, Minnesota, Purdue and Wisconsin.
