USC in L.A. every other year as the last game of the season?!!? In the 27 games that have been played since Ara's first year in 1964, ND's record has been dismal: 9 wins, 16 losses and 2 ties. Although I think that this team is the most athletically gifted ND has fielded in the last 25 years, and although if you dropped the "1" from Ian Book's #12 jersey you could easily mistake him for the great Tom Clements #2, BEWARE OF L.A. IN NOVEMBER !!!
