Welcome everyone! I'll be live blogging tonight's game between the USC Trojans and the No. 1 Notre Dame Fighting Irish.

by Gino Bottero 11/25/2012 12:55:27 AM
Entering the season Notre Dame was unranked and USC was the preseason No. 1 team. The teams have flipped positions and the Irish are a win away from a trip to the BCS national title game in January.

by Gino Bottero 11/25/2012 12:56:05 AM
Notre Dame is 11-0 for the first time since 1989.

by Gino Bottero 11/25/2012 12:56:15 AM
On Sunday night, Trojans coach Lane Kiffin announced that quarterback Matt Barkley will not play this week. Barkley suffered a sprained AC joint in his right shoulder against UCLA last Saturday. Redshirt freshman Max Wittek will start in his place. In three appearances this season Wittek is 8-of-9 for 95 yards and a touchdown with no interceptions.

by Gino Bottero 11/25/2012 12:56:39 AM
USC is 7-0 against unranked teams this season and 0-3 against ranked opponents.

by Gino Bottero 11/25/2012 12:57:24 AM
USC has won nine of their last 10 games against Notre Dame. The lone loss game in 2010 when Matt Barkley missed the game with a sprained ankle.

by Gino Bottero 11/25/2012 12:57:29 AM
USC has lost three of their last four games, dropping last week's meeting with UCLA, 38-28.

Go manti teo this is your time to shine

by kuuipo 11/25/2012 12:59:21 AM
Manti T'eo leads a Notre Dame defense that has allowed just one touchdown in three road games.
