The Trojans will be heading a little further north for their bowl game than they thought when the season started. They will tangle with Boston College in this years Emerald Bowl in San Francisco. A lot of controversy and disappointment surround USC going into the bowl season. They will most likely be without RB Joe McKnight and much weight will be thrust upon freshman QB Matt Barkley. The Trojan defense got run over late in the year by Stanford and Oregon when they allowed over 300 yards rushing in each contest. As for the Eagles, they enter with a solid running game behind Montel Harris and his 1355 yards but not much else. 25 year old true freshman Dave Shinske has been shaky at best completing only 52% of his passes to go along with 14TD and 13INT. With everyone piling on USC and their troubles and expecting them not to show up, I am inclined to go the other way.
