Opponent Watch: Golden State Edition

Still having Pac-12 nightmares, Irish fans? Well, we have one more clash with our arch rival coming up, and you’ll get to see how USC fares against a volatile offense and mostly nonexistent defense…of course I’m describing Cal. Depth across the field will be a challenge for the Trojans as the long season takes its toll, but their top line players are as talented as any ND has faced this year.

    Utah/Stanford is potentially HUGE. That would be a pretty solid win that might shove Stanford back into the top 25 if we are lucky.
