Two weeks out, and I'm leery of the Trojans.
Their new QB can run and throw (he looks like a lesser version of fingernails), and they have an awesome RB and WR's that can smoke anyone.

Im leery of USC also,.
im not confident of. NDs ability to sustain drives which may be needed in close game
Always athletic and talented but basically a dumb team. It might not be easy but we should win.

Re: Two weeks out, and I'm leery of the Trojans.
Anyone who lived through the sixties, seventies, and early eighties is traumatized by this game in LA.
So am I. A lot of upsets in this rivalry game

Maybe they are just not very talented? They barely beat another Big10 bottom feeder yesterday. Their
QB situation is a bigger mess than our's, they are soft and will quit if they fall behind
They have skill player talent, their linemen are terrible
Between Clay Helton and Lincoln Riley, they've always been able to reel in skill position talent, as well as a good crop of defensive backs.
Their recruiting of offensive linemen hasn't exactly been stellar, nor has their development of the trench guys.
I don't hold Miller Moss accountable for the lousy season they've been having. He simply didn't have much time to throw the ball. If anything, his situation reminds me a lot of what Ron Powlus had in 1994, where we had plenty of skill position talent, but the offensive line was decimated due to injuries.
The next 2 weeks will tell us whether this is fools gold
D is legit but can we win a shootout? What happens when we play a team whose O is as good as our D and their D is at least as good as NIU?
I think we win out and given the inconsistency of teams 5-12 May even win our opening round. But hard to believe we beat an OR or OSU or one of the SEC teams once they enter playoff mode.
Remember, Notre Dame wins over ALL!
