Ireland is looking to bounce back from its surprising loss in the quarterfinals of the 2023 Rugby World Cup. The Irish were the No.1 team in the world and had defeated South Africa in pool play, but powerhouse New Zealand upset Ireland 28-24 in the quarterfinals.
South Africa went on to win the Rugby World Cup.
Now, Ireland has a chance to regain its footing, and perhaps even its No.1 world ranking, currently owned by South Africa.
Here's when the Irish play in the 2024 Six Nations.
