[quote=Anonymous]Wow, I cannot believe how clueless you all are. I’m very confident that the series will be renewed and continue.  Both sides want it. But what’s going on is very simple: USC is adjusting to joining the Big Ten and needs more flexibility in its schedule.  They don’t want to agree on a long term deal with dates penciled in.  They want to work things out on a yearly basis and preferably schedule the game before conference play begins.  There’s even talk of a Week Zero game to open the season for both schools which would make the game a real event.

Notre Dame has a deal in place with the ACC to play five of their teams a year.  It also plays Stanford and Navy every year under long term agreement.  They don’t need to join a conference but if they ever decide to they’re obligated to join the ACC.

And anyone who says they’ve lost their relevance just doesn’t follow college football.  They just played in the NC game last year and finished the season number 2.  Every major football program in the country with an opening—Penn State, Florida, etc—wants to steal their coach.  They’re as relevant as any and the envy of many.  [/quote]
