The one thing that USC has shown better than any other team in the nation is that no matter how bad their conference schedule is come BCS time they are going to kick the crap out of whichever team they play from whatever conference that they come from.
In my view despite their weak conference schedule they should get the benefit of the doubt based on their OOC play and history in the BCS bowl games.
In reality I would like to see an 8 team play-off that would leave out a lot of subjective analysis that is in place now, but that will never happen and instead we have SEC teams playing Div. 2 chumps and relying on voters overhyping their conference, whether it is deserved or not, and voters and computers assigning arbitrary values to loses of various teams.

well, it's subjective that's for sure. But I'd take the SEC over the PAC10 by miles every day of the week. You have to be a USC fan to think otherwise. Just watch the games, it's like the WHL vs the NHL. In the PAC10 timing doesn't matter much, receivers are twice as open, defenses are slower, it just obvious. And yea USC has an impressive OC schedule, but everyone in the SEC still has a harder schedule over the year, regardless of how many Div II teams they play.
And I think I speak for almost anyone who is not a USC fan by saying that I'll give USC the benefit of the doubt when they can win in Corvallis.
