This is really one of those games where USC should be able to walk into Notre Dame Stadium and pull off an upset against an Irish team that isn’t special. Bill Walton thinks so. He picked USC.
Unfortunately, I have no confidence in USC . . . or its coaches. Even if the Trojans are away from the Coliseum and playing in front of an engaged crowd.
It’s USC’s line of scrimmage play that worries me. So with that said, I’m taking Notre Dame, 31-23.
What about you?
Oh, and here’s the tailgate I promised would take place right outside Notre Dame Stadium.

USC 31, Domers 27. Domers have trouble at QB and O-line. They can be had. The challenge for USC is USC’s o-line vs. Domers d-line. I hope Harrell changes stuff up to rush the ball, and to utilize TE. Slovis can’t continue to hold the ball forever.

Just looked at the ranking of our O-Line coming out of high school (ranging from #300’s to Low 90’s) and the D-Line of Notre Dame (all inside the Top 25) —came to the conclusion we are outmanned.

This isn’t a year (or decade) for us to be talking too much trash about anyone, to include the Little Bears…but it was hilarious (and unfair – how about Jackie or Jerry Robinson, Kenny Easley, Freeman McNeil, Dave Balby, Wendell Tyler, Jonathan Ogden, etc., etc.) how hard they struggled to identify noteworthy UCLA players aside from Troy Aikman…and then the coup de grace was when one of the sec-espn-ers emphatically stated that everyone knows that USC considers Notre Dame its primary rival, not UCLA (since Helton-loving Herbstreit was in the group…constantly yapping about how he took Notre Dame in 2005…it’s hard to give to much credence to this, admittedly).

Not only are we weak on the offensive line, but also on defense so Notre Dame will run the ball and move the chains all day. Drake London will catch plenty of passes but as usual we will not be able to move the ball inside the 20.
