2024 team records 
Fighting Irish — 9-1 (W, 23-13 at Texas A&M; L, 16-14 vs. NIU; W, 66-7 at Purdue; W, 28-3 vs. Miami University; W, 31-24 vs. Louisville; W, 49-7 vs. Stanford; W, 31-13 at Georgia Tech; W, 51-14 at Navy; W, 52-3 vs. Florida State; W, 35-14 vs. Virginia)
USC — 6-5 (W, 27-20 vs. LSU; W, 48-0 vs. Utah State; L, 27-24 vs. Michigan; W, 38-21 vs. Wisconsin; W, 24-17 vs. Minnesota; L, 33-30 [OT] vs. Penn State; L, 29-28 vs. Maryland; W, 42-20 vs. Rutgers; L, 26-21 vs. Washington; W, 28-20 vs. Nebraska; W, 19-13 vs. UCLA)

Noting Notre Dame: Notre Dame has won nine games in a row by an average margin of over 30 points per game. The Fighting Irish are one win away from punching a College Football Playoff ticket. If they lose close and finish the year 10-2, they’re inviting a scary situation come selection day.

Noting USC: The Trojans have lost five games by a combined 19 points. They’re primed to play the Irish close, but time and again they have not been able to get over the hump. It would certainly feel like a catharsis of sorts if they find a way to hold serve at home in this annual rivalry.
