What's everyones take on this game and who you got? I think tOSU D is the only thing keepin them in this one. I'm taking USC by 10.

btw, did anyone see Patrick Turner's beard yesterday on CFL?

tOSU has problems at RB and QB. USC has some OL issues, but not bad, especially relative to Big Ten rush.

I really think USC can just about name the score here. tOSU is completely outmatched.

Is Todd Boeckman really a problem?

Do you know who Marcus Freeman is?

I sort of agree that USC has the advantage at just about every position except O-Line but thats why they play the game :)

you made three or four points, all of them poor or poorly explained.


1. Chris Wells may or may not play, may or may not play a lot. I think it safe to say that he is probably not going to be effective in the game, start to finish.

2. Pryor, even if he plays a lot, is too green to handle USC's defense. He'll be a Heisman candidate in 2 years, but right now he is fodder for the jump to college speed.

3. tOSU has some fantastic LBs, but can you really name without looking any of their defensive linemen? How much pressure are they going to get against USC's speed at talent positions? Meanwhile, for how many years have we been led to believe that tOSU has top tier talent on defense, only to find, eh, they just aren't that good against the better OOC teams?

How's that?

much better, but not even remotely close to your initial analysis.

There is nothing novel about the info/thoughts in my follow-up so I guess I assumed that folks would understand what I mean when I said that tOSU had RB and QB issues (Wells out or at least hobbled and Pryor a deer in headlights), etc.

But I get your point.

From now on, I'll regale you with all of the background for my analyses and conclusions!

I didn't take the QB issues to mean Pryor at all. I thought you were talking about Boeckman.

Saw nothing in the second about USC's OL issues you referenced in the first.

I don't need the full breakdown, but you asked the man to be specific about your post when it contained little or nothing.

Not to mention that I hate UF.

You could have just said that and I'd have inferred the rest.
