Notre Dame vs USC Prediction
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are obviously the better team capable of blowing the doors off, but they also haven’t played on the road much and this will be just their second true road game since mid-September. The USC Trojans are inconsistent as all hell, but they’ve shown they can get up for games when they feel like it. Ask Penn State earlier in the year. Senior night and a chance to crash the party against the rival, I’ll roll with the points and USC.
