The main event this weekend for USC sports fans is actually not one event. It’s two. USC football versus UCLA is always a big deal, regardless of the records of the two teams. However, this Saturday, another massive showdown involving USC will take place. The Trojans and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish will meet in women’s basketball. Both teams are in the top five of the latest USA TODAY Sports Women’s Basketball Coaches Poll.
USC fans will be able to attend both games on Saturday. USC-Notre Dame is at the Galen Center and will start just after 1 p.m. local time in Los Angeles. The USC-UCLA football game will start just after 7:30 p.m. local time in Pasadena. That offers Angelenos more than enough time to leave Galen and get to the Rose Bowl Stadium in time for kickoff, even with LA’s infamously nasty traffic.
The USC-Notre Dame game is part of a television tripleheader on NBC. The network has both USC games — women’s hoops and football — with the big Notre Dame-Army football game sandwiched in between at 4 p.m. Pacific time. USC-Notre Dame women’s basketball, though, gets the party started at 1.
USC and Notre Dame share spots in the top five of the USA TODAY Sports Women’s Basketball Coaches Poll with No. 1 South Carolina, No. 2 UConn, and No. 4 Texas.
