Comparing the two based on their opponents looks like this
KSU wins - S. Dakota, Mizzou, Oklahoma, Texas Tech, Iowa St
USC wins - Ga State, Charlotte, SC State, Kentucky

KSU appears to be more battle tested. ,

Not at all. But that's not something to reason why they are more battle tested than us. Our losses would make us more battle tested than that.
Yes, the sign of a good team is always how you lose as opposed to how others win. SMH

Does KSU have a defensive line? And a functional defensive coordinator?? Yes? Then KSU probably holds us to 7 points.

KSU 20
USC 7 (on a special teams or turnover)

A good matchup? Who would you take?
You might want to rethink this post in light of KSU romp over OSU yesterday unless you want to see us totally slaughtered in a bowl game. Anyway it will not happen cause KSU is off to a bigger and better bowl Since they have an offense that looks and produces yards and points.

What's to rethink its a hypothetical question. Wouldn't call them battle tested as much as we will be. Would take ksu in the matchup right now.

Battle tested?
Still believe this is a good matchup. I guess some backed off.
Would rather play ksu than nd.

KSU would be a boring matchup. Low ratings.

Folks tune into watch ND...either to see them win or to see them lose. I want to face them and hope our offense is still performing well so a lot of recruits see it.

It's about recruits seeing you play. That is part of the ratings. If we're playing well, we need as much as exposure as we can get. ND = exposure. Just the way it is.
It's about the matchup and hypotheticals.

My biggest fear about Notre Dame is they may have the ability to run at will against us, & they won't go full stupid trying to pass like Tillman did.

We'll have to score in the 30s to beat them.
