usc has played a few crappy teams in conference. so have all the teams you mentioned. in addition, they have also played some d1aa competition. bama beat an overrated georgia team and just squeaked by stuggling lsu. georgia got clownstomped in their two biggest games of the year. florida had a hiccup against ole miss, but have since put it together and are playing very well.

you can try to derive a team's relative strength by six degrees of separation, but the fact of the matter is that usc would be favored over anyone on a neutral field.

here's what the oddsmakers say:

bcs line

but what do these guys know? they only do it for a living.

Auburn and Arkansas.

Two of the three worst teams in the SEC.

LOL, you have to be kidding me, the BCS line is a joke. I do not know what sports shows you guys watch but 99% of the folks on them say Florida is the best team in the country

Let's wait and see, you USC guys live in the past and some sort or fantasy land

You gotta love the guys that swear by the SEC and their teams down there. SC is a hell of a team, I see them playing very competitively against anybody right now, and probably coming away with a W against Florida or Bama.

like i said, this is the opinion of the professional oddsmakers. the truth hurts sometimes, i know. people are entitled to their own opinions. i personally like florida a lot this year. the problem is that people talk a lot, but don't back up the smack when push comes to shove. if the oddsmakers put out a line giving usc points against anyone, you'd see where the money would go.

LOL! Kram, I wish I could rep you but I'm all out.

Can't wait for the bowls. Hopefully, SC gets a shot at an SEC team and we can stop these nonsensical posts.

Making excuses, you are talking about another season, we are talking about 08', your boys looked good against Wash, Wash St and Arizona St

Again, you hang on to what the BCS says, let's face it, the BCS is a joke. We will see who is in what bowl games and who finishes at the end
