The Notre Dame Fighting Irish improved its record to 8-3 after destroying the Boston College Eagles last week and set up a really big rivalry game against the USC Trojans for the Jeweled Shillelagh.
Despite the Notre Dame pressbox favorite bowl selection being in San Diego, a majority of national outlets have the Irish headed to Jacksonville. Almost all of these projections are predicated on a Notre Dame loss in L.A. this weekend. While I understand how tough it might be for the Irish to grab a New Year’s 6 Bowl game.
