The Big 12 takes centerstage this week, as BYU hosts Notre Dame in a "show-me" matchup for both sides.
Notre Dame is looking to put some of the allegations around its competition to rest — at least until it plays Miami — as the Fighting Irish gear up for their toughest test so far this year.
BYU, meanwhile, is trying to make the most of being on the marquee. The Cougars are hoping to get the biggest win in the Kalani Sitake era over Notre Dame, with quarterback Bear Bachmeier at the helm. While a win may not impact BYU's Big 12 chances, it would still be a massive one for the program.
