The first game of the season is finally here for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the USC Trojans. The start of the season brings hope and exciting for everyone, and anything is possible. We start with the Trojans. USC’s week 1 opponent is Rice, but it doesn’t matter who the Trojans are playing. Everyone is waiting for the start of the Lincoln Riley era. The expectations for the offense are unlimited and any number of players could become stars. The defense is a bit of a question mark, but they have to be better than last year. The week 1 task is a bit more difficult for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish who have to travel to Columbus and face the Ohio State Buckeyes. Notre Dame will being playing the role of underdog, and getting that first victory will be difficult for Marcus Freeman and the Irish. All eyes will be on Notre Dame quarterback Tyler Buchner on offense while the defensive line will have to show up to stop the Buckeyes. This should be an interesting game where anything could happen. We also have a little Brian Kelly talk for old time’s sake.
