The Backs come out pumped up and play a great 1st quater but then USC takes over in the second half for easy win.

yeah, i thought this was an interesting pick.

Plus with the 8 pts, I think the razorbacks can keep it within a touchdown. The razorbacks have some good young players.

USC commits a bunch of first half turnovers and Arkansas hangs on and wins a shootout.

I can probably agree the most with this one. USC probably will come out slow, but if there's one thing Pete Carroll is good at, it's halftime adjustments. That and Arkansas does not have their RB. They are screwed without him.

If USC loses, do you think everyone will jump off the USC bandwagon, or jump onto the Arkie bandwagon? Or both?

To those of you who took Arkansas, are you taking Arkansas or the points?

I just can't believe that USC has dropped off enough and Arkansas has improved enough for this to be a one score game.

I am taking Arkansas. I know everyone says that it is the same ole USC until proven otherwise...but it isn't! The fact that analysts and fans are saying so, is pretty much playing into the Hog's favor. The USC players will enter the game feeling invinceable, simply because they are USC. Yet, of the 22 players that will start the game, 14 have never started a game. People can preach all they want about the recruiting classes USC has brought in, however, after UT's 2005 season, we should all know that 4 and 5 star high school kids do not always amount to greatness in college. I will not be surprised if USC wins, however, I firmly believe that Arkansas will pull this one out.
