Notre Dame and USC to Renew Rivalry in 2030 for Four Years

The storied college football rivalry between Notre Dame and USC will make its return in 2030 after a hiatus, marking a century since their first matchup.

According to reports, the two teams have established a four-year home-and-home series that will kick off with games in 2030 and 2031. The initial game will take place at the L.A. Coliseum, followed by a contest at Notre Dame in 2031. The subsequent matchups in 2032 and 2033 are scheduled to occur between Week 1 and Week 3 of the season.

The rivalry faced disruption due to scheduling conflicts, as USC sought to move the games earlier in the season, which Notre Dame opposed. After 2033, both teams will need to negotiate to continue the series, which many hope will endure given the importance of traditional rivalries in college football.
