I don't see why USC. would not be motivated, while PSU's motivation may be a little questionable. But it is still the Rose Bowl. Even if PSU is ready to play, I just don't see them able to hang with the Trojans. Again, your thoughts would be appreciated.
sorry man almost forgot.......................
*you did a pretty good job looks like......not much I can add
ISSUES?
$ How good is Penn State?.....
*have they ARRIVED?.......a team that could hang in the play-offs?
OR......were they playing 'over their pumpkin heads'.....>and will get their azz handed to 'em here?.............
*I....have no idea.......I actually side with you a bit.....I took the early 7'.......as what looked like nice value at the time.....since have played USC 1H.....and will add in-game / halftime if needed
$ Look at it this way.......WHAT TEAM.....is probably.....the 4th best team in the country?......as I said a month ago......likely USC
*OU might be favored over USC.....but gimme USC.....if OU destroys Auburn.....then we'll see ha
$ It appears to me.....that USC is in a really nice SPOT here
* PSU?.....after a few really tough years....may (kinda sorta) be more RELIEVED......their struggle is over......a we're just happy to be here kinda thing................................................maybe
PSU actually matches up OK with USC
*primarily a big play O (mostly passing).....USC D strong vs efficient / move the chains O's......but vulnerable to the big play.....
>> #93 overall.....#81 passing.....#79 running
USC O much like their D.....much more efficient than explosive
*PSU D?.......#29 vs efficient O's......and is solid all the way around.....they get penetration (#20).....and can bring heat ...#29
NOTE: PSU with a ST (10 > 16) and TO margin (43 > 77) edge
Looks to me like USC jumps out early in a lower scoring 1H.......PSU comes back late as always (see #'s I gave earlier).....in a higher scoring 2H..............
* USC wins by 6-10 or so ?.............................
The impediment to action advances action - what stands in the way becomes the way.
........didn't read any of that stuff
