The end of the Pac 12 earlier in the week along with news of USC trying to ditch LSU from their schedule this fall have put the Trojans largely in the news in recent days.
On Wednesday, national sports talker Colin Cowherd voiced his opinion that USC should take things a step further as they move to the Big Ten and discontinue their annual rivalry with Notre Dame.
Nobody here would be interested in that but as it’s in the news, we certainly discuss it.
Although you won’t confuse anyone here at Fighting Irish Wire with being a USC fan by any means, its safe to say the understanding of importance that the two programs have meant to each other historically isn’t missed.
Notre Dame and USC are slated to play this Thanksgiving weekend in Los Angeles and again next October in South Bend.
And the good lord willing, for decades and decades alternating home venues to come.
In honor of not just the best intersectional rivalry in sports, but one of the absolute best rivalries in all of college football, check out some of the very best photos of the Notre Dame-USC rivalry over the years below.
