Best hope is for USC to beat Notre Dame, and UCLA to beat USC. I actually think UCLA has a better shot of knocking off USC than Notre Dame does. It's a rivalry game, where anything can happen, and it's in Pasadena.
As a Notre Dame fan, I have to say, sadly, I agree with you.
maybe, but if USC doesn't turn the ball over against UCLA, it should win by a couple TDs....
Perhaps, but it's a road trip of about 12 miles. Frankly, the Rose Bowl stadium is closer to the USC campus than it is to UCLA's. It's going to be more of neutral site than one which really plays to UCLA's advantage.
