Perhaps I wasn't clear I would take them to win against any of the undefeated Big 12 teams other than Oklahoma. If one of the others went undefeated they certainly deserve to go to the Championship game over USC, based on the current system, but in my mind they wouldn't be as good of a choice to win the game as a one-loss USC team.

You are obviously a USC fan. Sorry to inform they aren't as good as in past years. Sanchez just doesn't have it. I don't even understand why McKnight is the starter he has looked very unspectacular. I've watched all their games and they just don't have the dominant talent that they have had in the past besides a couple guys on the defensive side of the ball. They dominated a weak Ohio State team who has already given up on the season by putting their freshman qb in as starter.

I am not a big USC fan. I like them better than the other big teams and think that they have consistently been the best team since 2002.

I think Sanchez will end up just fine and that the OC called a way too conservative game plan for most of the game. Once he was moving around in the second half you could see that he had a lot more options and could make a lot more plays.

Mcknight seems to try to do way too much in my view. Instead of just letting his talent get him 5-10 yards every play he tries to make 10 guys miss and get a 75 yard TD every play.

They looked pretty good in destroying two decent teams from BCS conferences. By the end of the year I would not be surprised if they are once again the team that nobody wants to play and that everyone in the hunt for the Championship will be happy that they crapped the bed again against a crappy PAC 10 school.

The SEC is bar-none the toughest conference in college football like always although the Big 12 is inching closer. If you escape the SEC with only one loss it's an incredible feat. If you lose only one in the PAC-10 your team's status should plummet.

I agree that the SEC is the toughest conference but it is nowhere near the meat grinder people make it out to be. Every year supposedly top SEC teams get beat in bowls by teams from lesser conferences. The SEC certainly has a lot of top teams but they also get overrated by the pollesters much more than any other conference.
