First and foremost… Blowing out the bRuins tomorrow and Arizona the following week! This will prove that Trojan football is back to its glory enough for a Holiday Bowl berth.
What also would be nice to see:
Failure of Stanford to Notre Dame (Charlie’s last game wearing his Notre Dame hoodie)
Oregon creaming Oregon StateĀ in the “Civil War”
Arizona beating ASU (which will mean we beat a “good” AZ team)
Cal losing to Washington (This does not really HAVE to happen, but it would be fun to see nonetheless.)
All of these scenarios do not necessarily have to happen, but they all help our case. The Trojans really control their own destiny from here on out, as long as we win the next two games definitively, the Holiday Bowl will welcome Traveler into Qualcomm Stadium with open arms. They know we bring lots of money and lots of ticket sales with us. CHACHING
And also, no one does a Bowl Game like USC under Pete Carroll. Give him a month to prepare, and he will definitely give you a great show worth the price of admission!
Here is a parting question to be pondered:
If the Apple Cup is played and no one is around to see it, does anybody care?
