Who do you guys got?I think USC will win, I think they just have to much talent and I think they will win probaly by more then a touchdown.
It is to late now (it is USC's game to lose) but I had USC too, for this simple fact:1- USC and Notre Dame both have decent offenses (I think USC's is better aside from Quinn).2- Notre Dame's defense sucks (as do aspects of their special teams) and USC doesn't have to bad of a defense.That adds up in USC's favor.
^Although I think USC is overrated as well. Both teams aren't as good as everyone pretends and ranks them to be this year. USC almost loses to Washington St., put two more seconds on the clock and they lose to Washington, almost lost to Arizona St., and then does lose to Oregon St. All in consecutive weeks, not that impressive if you ask me.

Carroll always has them playing great at the end of the season. They have had some good wins also and the Washington schools were playing great ball at the time. Washington State was ranked at a time.

The thing that people don't relize about Quinn is he has never won a big game in his life at ND.

Quinn played great yes, but his stats weren't that impressive either (not saying it is all about stats). The fact remains, Quinn has never won a big game in his career at ND and people still wanted to give him the hiesman this year. The first real defense he plays and he throws three picks (Michigan) and then he plays a bunch of nobodies. Notre Dame didn't even have a tough schedule this year aside from Michigan and USC (who I think is overrated), and yet they still struggled to beat teams.
I think it was good that USC won yesterday because if ND won they would of probaly been in the Natl title game which woulden't of been fair since Michigan destroyed ND in South Bends and it would just explain the fact that college football needs a playoff system.

I agree it's kind of worthless to talk about this now since ND diden't win but I agree Michigan should of been in the Natl championship game if ND would of won.

They just need to get past a below average UCLA team which they should do.

Ohio State beat them 34-20, Michigan beat them 47-21, and now USC beats them 44-24. How can they not be overrated? They haven't beaten anybody of note since Georgia Tech in week 1. Penn State is inexperienced and has had a down year, the needed to come back against UCLA, and Michigan State gave the game away. The feasted on teams like Stanford, North Carolina, Army, Navy, and Air Force. They played an easy schedule. The media (especially ESPN) has gotten into your head. Brady Quinn won't do shyt in the pros.

Every time they play a highly ranked opponent, they loose, and they loose big. Not just by 3 or 7 points, but by 14 and 20 points. USC has beaten top ranked opponents this year, Ohio State has beaten top ranked opponents, Florida has beaten top ranked opponents, Michigan has beaten top ranked opponents including being Wisconsins lone loss, Arkansas has beaten highly ranked teams, and even Rutgers has beaten a highly ranked opponent. Notre Dame is failing to have done this, and I believe don't deserve a spot in the Fiesta, Rose, Sugar, or Orange bowls.
