SC knocks off ND.....

I know it's not a popular opinion but I don't like or chances of going to an NY6 game. And if NW beat OSU our chances will be zero.
 
USC beating ND would mean that Helton stays at USC, which takes one potential issue off of the table for us. It also keeps ND out of the playoff, which is good because it would frankly be unfair to the #5 team if they got in. There are lots of reasons to pull for USC in this game.

I agree that we are not going to an NY6 bowl. For some reason the pollsters love to put Washington ahead of us this year, and we won't get in ahead of them. If they lose to Utah then Washington State is still ahead of us, and it is a toss-up as to whether WVU, Utah, could sneak into the top 12 and compete with us for a spot. If Texas beats Oklahoma then we have no chance whatsoever.
