what total would you put on UTexas/USC game?

[sdf]

the 2 top scoring offenses in the nation.

USC faced:

fresno avg 40ppg...usc gave up 42
ndame av 38ppg..usc gave up 31
azst av 37ppg...usc gave up 28
ore av 36ppg...usc gave up 13
waazu avg 33ppg..usc gave up 13
cal avg 32ppg...usc gave up 10

--

Texas faced:

TTech avg 42ppg...tex gave up 17
TAMU avg 32ppg...tex gave up 29
ohst av 32pg...tex gave up 22
missou av 30ppg...tex gave up 20
col av 30ppg....tex gave up 17


both have played good offenses and continually kept them under their season avg (and sorta defeats any talk of usc's dee being chit).

do these defenses step up and do the job? do the offenses continually put up 40-50ppg?

i'm guessing the total will be in the low 70s and the betting public will jump on the over but that we'll see it go under the total. USC 38-30.

I guess 64' for an opener driven UP to 66-67 by gametime. Then, the game goes UNDER as SC opens a can of woop ass on them winning 41-23.

I am convinced after yesterday Texas could not give SC the type of game Miami, Penn State, or maybe a few others could. Mac Brown bites and in a tuff contest the horns get hooked by their own lack of discipline and focus which is not needed against many of the Big 12 Teams.

Just my $0.02

so you look at one game and are convinced texas cant hang? that's just like utexas fans looking at the fresno game and saying usc defense isnt good enough. one game does not prove anything.
why not look at texas' games versus baylor or kansas or oklahoma or ttech or colorado or rice or OHIOST games? (and, likewise, utexas fans should look at the wazzu, cal, oregon games to prove usc defense is good enough to stop utexas offense)


why is the one game, on the road versus their biggest rival, the one you focus on? texas still go the double digit win. if not for a non-call on the PI in the first quarter (which turned into an INT), the game *might* have played out copmletely differently.

texas won at night at ohiost where it was supposed to be unpossible to win...texas did it.
texas made mistakes early on but overcame them and won in the 4th quarter.


please, give better reasons than mack brown isnt good enough. he has proved time and time again he is.

I'll take the under in all your numbers.

I'll say 54.5 to start....still taking the under
