USC Trojans Athletic Director Lynn Swann is rooting for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish’s football team — except for that one Saturday per year the two greatest intersectional rivals compete on the field.
Swann, who graduated from USC in 1974, reaffirmed his university’s commitment to the annual series during an interview with the Southern California News Group published Monday.
When asked if USC was scheduling too tough, Swann replied:
Because of time zones, people on the East Coast aren’t really seeing us. We have to play a tougher schedule.
