SAN FRANCISCO -- It could be a record-breaking year for the Emerald Bowl.
Last year's Emerald Bowl between California and Miami sold out AT&T Park and produced a 4.6 rating on ESPN, the eighth highest rated bowl game in the history of the network and the best TV stats in the bowl's seven-season history. And this year, with an in-state, high-profile team such as USC and a matchup of 8-4 squads, Emerald Bowl officials are expecting another sellout and an even better TV rating for the Dec. 26 game, set to kick off at 5 p.m. on ESPN.
"We couldn't have picked a better matchup," Emerald Bowl executive director Gary Cavalli said.
