Notre Dame is ready to start the second half of the season and the Trojans are coming to town and Notre Dame has not forgotten about last years embarrassing loss and the Trojans are without their head coach. This game could go many different ways and here are our score predictions!
Randall Mast Record 4-2
Its hard to know waht USC team will show up at Notre Dame, but I think the team is ready to put the Sark news behind them and prove they are a legit team. Once again Notre Dame will start slow and be adjusting to a ‘normal’ offence after playing Navy, giving USC a chance to jump out to an early lead. Notre Dame will be down be a touchdown at half time but make the right adjustments and Kizer and Brown will connect for some big plays and a deep throw to Fuller will tie the game. The defense forces a turnover with a Cole Luke interception and Prosise and the offense score to take the lead for good and the Irish win. Final Score: Notre Dame 38, USC 30
Reuben Hochsetler Record 5-1
Notre Dame stadium causes an opening drive stumble by USC and Notre Dame takes an early 7-0 lead, but USC is never out of the game. While never leading, they remain within one score the entire game. In the fourth quarter the stadium causes more issues for USC and Notre Dame preserves the win with a defensive stop. Final Score: Notre Dame 40, USC 33
Tony Berkshire Record 5-1
USC comes out of the hate guns blazing, having nothing to lose. After one quick touchdown by Juju Smith and an interception return by Adoree Jackson, Notre Dame grabs control in the first half down 21-24. After a back-and-forth second half, the game goes into overtime tied at 27. A strong defensive stance by Notre Dame, Justin Yoon becomes an instant Notre Dame legend by kicking the game winning 35 yard field goal. Final Score: Notre Dame 30, USC 27
Kyle Miller Record 4-2
Notre Dame and USC both come out on fire and the score after first quarter is 14-14. USC loses a 21-14 halftime lead as Notre Dames defense finally stiffens up to win. Final Score: Notre Dame 34, USC 27
