It’s mid-October, which means it’s rivalry week for Notre Dame football. This week we get to indulge in college football’s greatest intersectional rivalry, Notre Dame vs. Southern California.

In addition, the matchup between these two famed private institutions is the most decorated rivalry in the sport as they’ve produced a combined 22 claimed national titles (11 apiece), 15 Heisman Trophy winners (8 for USC and 7 for Notre Dame), and an astounding 191 consensus All-Americans (107 for ND and 84 for USC).

Thus, it’s no wonder why Big Noon Kickoff will be live from South Bend this Saturday. The game should be a fierce back and forth affair with the outcome to be decided in the final stanza.

With that said, here’s three bold predictions for Notre Dame as they square off against USC.
