Our USC Trojans vs Notre Dame Fighting Irish Prediction
Notre Dame is more than a touchdown favorite, which makes USC look to be the better betting option. The Fighting Irish have no doubt been dominant since their 0-2 start, but they have not faced any team since their loss to Texas A&M that stacks up to what USC brings to the table.
The Trojans are averaging 45.5 points per game this season and have the speed to be able to keep up with the Fighting Irish. Further, USC’s defense has slowly been improving, which suggests they can handle a well-balanced Fighting Irish offense.
Even though Notre Dame will be at home, these two teams look to be evenly matched; therefore, our USC Trojans vs Notre Dame Fighting Irish prediction is: USC Trojans +10.5 Alternate Spread.Claim $300+ for your USC Trojans vs Notre Dame Fighting Irish wager!
