USC vs. Notre Dame highlights College Football on NBC and Peacock Week 7 slate
With the college football season nearly coming to its halfway point, NBC Sports and Peacock present a college football triple-header with three heavy-hitting matchups on Saturday, October 14 for Week 7.
The No. 4 Ohio State Buckeyes will travel to Ross–Ade Stadium to take on the Purdue Boilermakers at noon on Peacock, the Illinois Fighting Illini hit the road to College Park and take on the Maryland Terrapins at 3:30 p.m. on NBC, and in prime time, the No. 9 USC Trojans will face the No. 10 Notre Dame Fighting Irish at the historic Notre Dame Stadium at 7:30 p.m. on NBC.
NBC and Peacock's college football triple-header features some of the top matchups in college football. Here are the storylines for the Week 7 action:
No. 4 Ohio State @ Purdue – Noon - Peacock
The Buckeyes (4-0), one of the powerhouses of the Big Ten and college football as a whole, will face a scrappy Purdue (2-3) squad led by first-year head coach Ryan Walters.
Ohio State asserted themselves as contenders for the College Football Playoff after a nail-biting 17-14 classic over Notre Dame in Week 4, and the Buckeyes hope to keep their momentum rolling in West Lafayette. OSU Quarterback Kyle McCord and sure-fire top 5 NFL Draft pick Marvin Harrison Jr. will be on display for the noon kickoff.

The game will also feature a battle of top quarterbacks between Caleb Williams (USC) and Sam Hartman (Notre Dame). Williams is projected to be the top pick in the 2024 NFL draft while Hartman is a top-tier transfer who played for Wake Forest before joining the Irish.
