The Coliseum was Jumping
The atmosphere in the Coliseum this past Saturday might have been the best that I have ever witnessed. The night started loud, finished loud, and was loud in between - on every play. We were moved one section over to accommodate the Notre Dame fatcats, but that didn't dampen our spirits, even though my view was impeaded by not the goalposts, but by one the poles used to raise the netting for field goal attempts and extra point tries.
It was a great night all around. A resounding Trojan victory over the Irish all but ensured that USC wold be spending January 8th in Glendale, Arizona. And if Brady Quinn's Heisman hopes had any life left in them going into the game, they were all but extinguished by halftime.
Unfortunately, the majority of the ND fans were moved to the opposite endzone in Section 1, therefore I didn't get to mention anything about the Potato Famine when Irish fans left after the Brian Cushing touchdown. Not that they would have heard me anyways, because the place was loud, the place was energized, the place was jumping!
