It’s official. The USC Trojans will take a trip down the I-5 to San Diego for the 42nd annual Holiday Bowl to face the Iowa Hawkeyes.
It appeared that the Alamo Bowl would select the Trojans even if Utah was available. That wasn’t the case Sunday as the Utes were passed over for a New Year Six at large bid and the San Antonio bowl game ultimately took Utah due to their second place finish in the Pac-12. From there it was obvious that the Trojans were going to have post-christmas plans in San Diego.
