If what I'm hearing is true, Notre Dame is easily the best team on a tough schedule.

What you are hearing is probably not true.

Tennessee splits most of their privates up into three classes. The biggest class is legit, that's where Brentwood Academy, MBA, etc play. Notre Dame competes in the AA class which is the next step down and usually they are competitive but not one of the best teams in their Division.

Alcoa would routinely beat them handily for example. The Knoxville Catholic team that Highlands is playing is a different story, they are a powerhouse and routinely produce multiple D1 guys.

I havent watched anything on Notre Dame, but judging off their past years they are going to be more comparable to a Lexington Catholic and not comparable to a Trinity or even a Covington Catholic. To give perspective, the team Mayfield beat last week pretty handily plays in the same class as Notre Dame and went farther than them last year.

Corbin should have a strong chance to win this one and probably would be a favorite by 10-14 points.
