Can the Arizona Wildcats kick USC Trojans Booty Saturday?

seth-edward-oneal.jpgIt's a longshot but if these Wildcats want to earn an upset win over powerhouse USC, this Saturday is the best time.

The 2007-08 NCAA college football season couldn't be any more exciting, especially with the number of upsets we've witnessed the last couple of weeks. As of press time, powerhouse USC is sitting 10th in the rankings and on Saturday, they could be going down the proverbial ladder even further.

''I sure hope so. That's my mind-set right now,'' John David Booty said, injured in the second quarter of USC's shocking 24-23 loss to Stanford last weekend. ''There's not really much you can do for it, ice it down. That's what I'm going to do.''

''The big thing is to get the swelling down.''

... And of course, hope they'll be able to beat the Wildcats and end what has been a rather humiliating week for the entire USC nation. He he...
