Cal 9
USC 11 (which means they have to win the NC for you to win and they have to do it undefeated, nuts)

Not in that cookie-cutter league that you all play in...once again Cal is the only major threat they face. USC going undefeated is not a stretch at all
How can Cal be favored?
1. We handed them their a#$
2. We both lost key players last year/no advantage
3. Home field is not worth much againts us.
@ Oregon will be a tough test, too
Agreed....they definitely have the ability to pull an upset. But what I meant by major threat is a team that cannot possibly be overlooked by USC. Oregon is a good team...so is Nebraska and possibly Notre Dame...although I doubt it. But if USC goes into those games with their heads on straight they should roll. If they go into any of those games like they did at UCLA last year then they definitely could lose.
But...IMO...Cal is the only team on their schedule that even remotely matches their talent level and therefore are the only legit threat for USC this year
Why?
Booty is back, they won't be hurting for talented WRs, their young RBs could only get better one would assume, and I don't know the specifics on their offensive line...
There offensive line is tremendous. All-American Sam Baker. Chilo Rachal will be a very good guard and Jeff Byers and Thomas Herring were 5 stars. There WR's are talented with Turner, Hazelton, Ausberry, inc. They have about 10 former HS All-Americans at RB and if JDB gets hurt, insert former 5 star Mark Sanchez. They also have a former 5 star LB that has moved to FB in Allen Bradford. They will have no problem scoring and there defense looks like an NFL d.
