So Notre Dame … 8-4?

By TheBigLead, The Big Lead

Too lazy to actually look into this, and stunned that a 3-9 team could turn it around so quickly, we got Intern Parris on the... more »

Whatever Happened to Great Expectations?

By SMQ, Sunday Morning Quarterback

One of the really entertaining things about UCLA partisans Bruins Nation is how staunchly on-message it is at all times. It’s apparent some of its founders have political backgrounds. When the message was "Fire Karl Dorrell," no opportunity was missed, no sentence was written that might weaken the campaign. Not even after a 26-point win. Not even if it was... more »

USC is USA's Top-10 Dream College

Devon Pollard, TrojanWire

The nation's premier college ranking service, the Princeton Review, recently released the results of its 5th annual College Hopes and Worries Survey. 8,776 college applicants were polled, aked what their ideal college would be if acceptance and cost were no concern. USC came out 9th in the 2008 top-10 list of dream colleges.

So it's true, what Mario Danelo used to say: "Living the Dream." For a good cross-section of America, USC students get the opprotunity to live the dream each and every day.

The top 10 dream colleges as according to the Princeton Review list were (#1) Harvard, (#2) Stanford, (#3) Princeton, (#4) New York University, (#5) Yale, (#6) Brown, (#7) Columbia, (#8) Cornell, (#9) USC and far-far away at very last place, (#10) [f]UCLA.
