Just dropped a pretty large wager on it. In fact, its my largest futures bet ever. Only competition will be Oregon, but they get to play them at home and I dont think they are physical enough on defense to ever stop the Trojans. No tough road games imo as Stanford and Zona will have new faces at qb and Cuse, UCLA and Washington are gonna be bugs on the windshield. I like USC to average 55 ppg this season and win by 25+ per game.


Also a large bet on:

USC wins PAC 12/Kings win Stanley Cup +190


Small bets on:

USC wins PAC 12/Matt Barkley wins heisman +650

USC/Okla/CIncy/Clem/Mich all win titles +13000

Why would you lay points on a futures bet. USC is has depth issues, it was evident during practice as nobody tackled.

I totally agree, but this line should be -350, thus there is a ton of value imo.

I agree.  I would NEVER make a futures bet with negative odds.  That completely defeats the purpose of a futures bet.  There are way too many things that can go wrong between now and December like arrests, suspensions and injuries.

I would lean toward USC winning the PAC 12, but I think they are a long way from a lock - especially with the Boy Blunder being their coach.

 -350? Not a chance.........I agree they should be the fav but -350 would insinuate that no one has a shot at beating them & we know that ain't true. I would call anything above +150 good value.

-350 was what I would set it at if I was a bookie....thats all that meant.

Oregon is their only obstacle. I doubt USC is better than -175 @ home vs anyone this year.

It is for the Pac 12 championship game 

USC would be -800 or so to win the P12 South.

1)  They don't lose anything they can't replace

2)  They have a huge lead on the rest of the P12 North

3)   They have speed up and down their roster

Oregon and USC have a huge lead on the the rest of the P12.  There isn't really a clear cut #3 team to challenge them (Utah, Cal, Stanford, Washington, UCLA?)

Don't lose anything you can't replace. Starting Qb is very hard to find, let alone one that had mastered that offence. 

RB they should be able to manage, with D'Anthony, but there is a glaring hole in that QB position. I mean who ever starts there will have almost no experience.

Injuries will tell that tale...

I would agree with USC winning PAC 12, but again, it'll boil down to injuries, suspensions.. you know all the things that surround COLLEGE FOOTBALL today!!
