The annual USC vs Notre Dame rivalry game will kickoff at the LA Coliseum on Saturday at 12:30 p.m. on ABC, with bragging rights on the line.

The Trojans and the Fighting Irish have followed drastically different trajectories in 2016. USC enters the final week of the regular season on the rise and with postseason hopes alive.

Notre Dame, on the other hand, faces the prospect of missing out on a bowl game after compiling a 4-7 record.

Despite limited national implications for the greatest intersectional rivalry in college football this year, USC vs Notre Dame is still set to draw a national audience.

The game will be broadcast live at 12:30 p.m. on ABC with Steve Levy on the call. Brian Griese will join him to provide the color commentary with Todd McShay on the sidelines.

There will be a live national radio broadcast on ESPN Radio and Sirius XM Channel 80.

As usual, Pete Arbogast will handle the local radio broadcast on 710 ESPNLA, the official home of the Trojans in Los Angeles, and SiriusXM Channel 137. John Jackson will be on color commentary with Jordan Moore on the sidelines.
