Don't be too sure we'll be playing USC on 9/3/11
Typically the opening weekend of college football does not feature many marquee games. Now that the NFL opens their season the weekend after Labor Day ABC will pick up a game of potential national interest with a prime time telecast on Labor Day evening (Monday Night Football !). This past year they picked up the Tennessee at UCLA. Past years games include Miami (FL) playing Florida State.
This would be the type of game that ABC /ESPN would love to pick up as it features two teams from large TV markets and from BCS conferences. Bottom line - don't book that airfare quite yet.
