USC to play Boston College in Emerald Bowl !

[FortressX]

SAN FRANCISCO — Southern California will face Boston College in the Emerald Bowl.

The bowl announced Sunday that the Trojans (8-4) will play the Eagles (8-4) on Dec. 26 at AT&T Park in San Francisco. This marks the first time USC has played in the bowl. The Trojans had played in a BCS game the past seven years.

Boston College is making its 11th straight bowl appearance. The Eagles are the first team to play in the Emerald Bowl twice, beating Colorado State 35-21 in 2003. Boston College is 8-1 in bowl games this decade.

Amazingly tough draw for BC...had hoped they would get a better game and a lesser opponent but any game is better than no game.

It will be good to see the Patriots be able to play a team with great talent such as USC, even though they had a down season this season. I will be looking forward to see them go up vs a team that hasn't lived up to potential this season. Let's see what ya got BC.

The Eagles and Trojans go at it tonight. Hopefully BC can get the victory.

Probably not, but I'll be rooting for them. For some reason, I really don't like USC.

I had to stop watching this game as I don't think there is a coincedence in USC getting all the calls and the game being played in Southern California....I saw 2 of the worst calls I have ever seen tonight and just had to turn it off before i put my fist through the TV....On one of the calls it was so bad that Pete Carroll couldn't even believe the call and it went his way....Just total BS...

I felt the same way watching this game as I do when watching the Pats play Indy in Indy.
