In what has been a topsy-turvy season near the top of the college football rankings, one thing has become a constant—No. 5 Notre Dame just keeps on winning.
The Fighting Irish made it 10 in a row on Saturday, beating USC 49-35 in what proved to be a stiffer challenge than expected despite the final scoreline.
While the defense didn't continue its dominant ways, the offense kept on rolling, led by quarterback Riley Leonard (17-of-23 for 155 yards, two touchdowns and an interception) and the dynamic duo at running back of Jeremiyah Love (99 rushing yards, one touchdown; three catches for 38 yards) and Jadarian Price (111 rushing yards, one touchdown).
