I really like the under in this. Oregon's D is pretty bad, but USC's O is shaky at best right now and has an inexperienced starting QB. Which, with all the O linemen returning to the line-up means that USC will try to pound the ball on the ground with their rotation of RB's and will try to limit the time Oregon's O is on the field.

As for Oregon, SC seems to have the athletes and recent expereince successfully defending vs the spread offense that I believe they will slow Oregon down greatly. Stewart will not run for much on this D.

Thanks for the input Flap. I see this as a close game that could go down to the final play. Oregon gets the nod from me because they are hard to beat at Autzen Stadium. Unless something freaky happens I'm looking at a total of mid 50s (28-24 or 30-27).

Good luck!
