Week 0 didn’t provide much high-profile action, but two of our top 15 teams took the field.
The USC Trojans hosted San Jose State in a sparsely-filled Los Angeles Coliseum, and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish took on Navy in Dublin.
Though Week 0 may not be the strongest indicator of how a season is going to go for a team, it reinforced some of our preexisting thoughts on these two prominent programs.
Sam Hartman was a fantastic addition by the Irish. USC’s defense is still a problem.
Though the rest of our top 25 didn’t give us anything to work with, we’re going to update our preseason power rankings based on what we saw out of USC and Notre Dame.
