Only one of these teams will remain undefeated after tonights night game featuring two teams ranked in the top 25. Will the Fighting Irish retain possession of the Megaphone trophy?

LB Danny Spond returns from injury for the Irish and will start at the Dog Position. LB Dan Fox will move back to inside linebacker.
