Notre Dame’s Biggest Rival Will Forever Be USC

In the wacky world of college football, there are innumerable traditions, unique rivalries that have defined the sport, and just plain absurd moments that are unforgettable; however, you may be hard-pressed to find more polar opposite rivals than Notre Dame and USC. On one hand, Notre Dame is a Catholic university located in northern Indiana, has a fan base made up mainly of blue-collar folks, and has traditionally been a team that finds most of its success with a dominant ground game and defense. On the other hand, USC is a large university located in Los Angeles, has a primarily West Coast following, and has traditionally possessed the sexier skill position players.
