LOL, what? When they want to be? They have NOT won a BIG game all season! Put down the SC kool-aid and just realize that they are nowhere near being the best team in the country. Nowhere near.

SC just got punked by UCLA and now we are all supposed to hop on the bandwagon and believe that they'll magically show up for Notre Dame?

What happened to showing up for Stanford, Arizona, Oregon and their cross-town rival? Oh, that's right, this fraud of a team hasn't beaten anyone of note. SC is 3-8 against the spread! 3 and 8, and yet SC fans keep betting on this team and hyping them up. It's over, SC is an average team at best with a few beasts at skill positions, nothing more.

UCLA may have ended Barkley's hollow SC career. All those gaudy stats and yet a wasted senior year in which he led the Trojans to ZERO BIG wins.
