We’ve got a big top-25 matchup coming this week between No. 12 Notre Dame and No. 18 Wisconsin.

The game, which is taking place at Soldier Field in Chicago, is drawing plenty of national attention. College GameDay will be there. FOX Big Noon Kickoff will be there.

The Badgers are favored by 6.5 points despite being ranked lower than the Fighting Irish, but FOX Sports put together a roster comparison based on 247sports recruiting rankings. Notre Dame has the edge in that regard.

It’ll mark the first time Jack Coan has played Wisconsin since transferring to Notre Dame this offseason. The former Badgers starter said he’s preparing for the game like all the others on the schedule and not taking it more personally.

Kickoff between Wisconsin and Notre Dame is scheduled for Sept. 25 at 11 p.m. CT on FOX.
