    Fight songs, cheers, floppy foam fingers -- these are all fine ways of showing your support at a college football game. But whether he's at the pregame tailgate party or gathered with friends in the comfort of his living room, the Playboy fan knows that an apt cocktail can rally the troops. Each week, we bring you a pair of potables tied to an important matchup. Hut, hut, hike!



    USC Trojans vs. Oregon Ducks



    USC Trojans vs.
    Oregon Ducks


    We stick with the Pac 10 for a second week -- and why not? The Ducks were a heartwarming story last year, and USC is, well, USC. The Trojan here sounds like something appropriate for brunch, but we're willing to file it under "whenever" for the sake of school spirit. And this cold duck bears no relation to the sparkling wine -- it's really just a stinger with a touch of vermouth.
