I think Oklahoma is overrated as well and i don't care much for Stoops but Baylor's defense is absolute garbage. If Oklahoma can't cover the 14 then they should drop out of the top 20!! Oklahoma St. will beat Oklahoma by 2 TD's

USC would be in the BCS mix were they eligible. They haven't beaten any highly respected team yet, something lacking on this year's resume.
If you look at the recruits you see Oregon has 53 Californians, and these players on both teams know eact other--the skill level is identical, but the players are within a scheme that works for them to score points.
USC has played excellent defense since the CAL game--they have amped up their intensity. CAL was dismantled; Stanford looked weakened the next game vs OSU; Wash could do nothing at all; ND was stymied all night long.
If Oregon comes out and scores early and often, then ok, they are for real, whatever. It doesn't look to unfold that way given USC's showings since the CAL game. The defense is creating turnovers. What has changed for USC since the CAL game upward trend? Injuries? Anything? No.
I for one would like to see a USC upset, since I do not want to see a rematch with LSU that is bantered about. I do not believe Oregon can do anything at all vs LSU or Alabama, and apart from the dazzling NIKE uniforms, the game will be a predictable finish. Maybe B. Weeden is the real deal--I mean, he is actually older than Aaron Rodgers, and the dude controls the entire offense. Oklahoma is the biggest test for them, but maybe they can provide "entertainment." Still looks like Alabama or LSU wins it all.
But as a non-fan, I have to like USC from what I've seen, from my knowledge of football, and analyzing this matchup. It is USC's to take if they want it.

I think the general feeling (public) is that Oregon rolls here under the lights with all the drama.
I just have the itching feeling that Oregon will see that USC emblem across from them and will see some pride coming through, and they will respond well enough to make it a game.
Stanford fell behind early and became too predictable and one dimensional. Surely USC coaches have taken note.
I have no doubt they will be poised and ready (USC) for this fight and will take it to the Ducks early and often, and at least PRESS Oregon to beat them in the second half. I don't think Okie St can get past OU and SOoner Nation, but I'd kinda prefer to see them rather than Oregon in the NC, simply because of the QB centered offense--which I prefer more than this Oregon option attack. So, here goes, midweek pondering concluded, laying it on the line (thanks for replies everyone)![]()
USC 1st H ML and +7.5
USC +15
USC 2nd H --- ?

Oregon is averaging 212 yards rushing per game. USC has not allowed any team over 200 yards this season. 134 yrds per game is good for 9th nationally. USC has shut down 3 1000 yd rushers (CAL, Wash and Utah) and La Michael James looks to be in a tough game where every yard counts, and he will have to run after contact w/o relying on a speed advantage. Meanwhile, USC's running game is looking like the kind of game they want to showcase. 3 of last 4 games they have gained over 200 yards, while the defense has shined.
Matt Barkley's stock is rising and I look for another error free, smartly played game with plenty of red zone opps, taking advantage of speed and big play makers.
Friends, this is the clearest play ATS that I have seen in awhile. This is most definitely the last major hurdle for Oregon, and USC will play to the final whistle. +15 is YOUR opportunity to raise the sports account ledger in your favor.

I have EXPLAINED the recruits are the same--from the best high schools in California and the talent level is therefore a wash.
Matt Barkley (NFL 1st rounder) > D. Thomas
Oregon will not have 200+ yards rushing for the trends noted
USC could easily have bigger plays offensively for the trends noted. They played "under the lights" vs Notre Dame on tv as a +9.5 dog and were supposed to be blown out. So they are used to being disrescted and discounted.
Meanwhile you have NOTHING explicable except a blowout loss to LSU and some entitled right to play them again to "prove yourselves." You had your chance. Every game counts. It's over. Move on. We REALLY do not want to see Darron Thomas and girl beater James and you all embarrass yourselves with glow in the dark socks and duck wings that look like green falcon wings on your shoulder pads. Move on.

Weren't you the one that said CAL would go up and down the field against Oregon
Oh and also referenced that CAL must pressure "Dixon" as in Dennis from 2008
As far as that Notre Dame game under the lights you are comparing to this is
!!! Notre Dame is flat out Garbabge!
They call Chip Kelly "Big Balls" for a reason. USC is walking into a Zoo Satuday Night and it's not going to pretty.![]()

Dixon or Darron, names have changed but the game's the same. And Wash starts "Joe Montana" this weekend.
It remains to be seen what you think of Chip Kelley's "big balls" after USC plays SEC style defense and "Dixon" throws 3 picks, and James the girl beater fumbles twice.

Darron is an option QB and was recruited for that--for running threat and pass when open.
From what I've heard, Calif. HS is dominated by teams that follow the formula of protect the QB and throw to fleet receivers.
Texas is more of a run first approach. Two different h.s. cultures.
NO SECRET ANYMORE DUCKS-->Oregon is a running team. The offensive players use steel reinforced cleats (steel in the sole of the cleat) to prevent the foot from bending or "wasting time" in its natural arch, and to give their players an added boost of speed--courtesy of NIKE.
I think Oregon wins this late, but they do not cover 15. They win by 3-4 late by stopping USC late in the redzone--ie, they win with defense. I also like the under in this one.
USC and UNDER 68
USC +22 and UNDER 75 (7 pt TEASER)

USC is ranked 98th against the pass. The first SEC team to come close to that is 49 spots ahead and that would be Ole Miss being the worst @ 49.
Yea USC is ranked pretty good at stopping the run, but so was Stanford ![]()
