No Problem
If you check these pre-season football odds, it's an easy decision to see that USC should win the national championship next season. So who takes the blame if the Trojans don't?

What a stupid comment. Wasn't Miami 'supposed' to win it in 2002, OU in 2003 and 2004, USC in 2005 and Ohio St. last year? The team that's supposed to win rarely does.
A better way to phrase the question would be "Who earns the praise if the Trojans do win?"... it's a much tougher task and far more unlikely than them losing.

Nothing is guaranteed. USC has a heavyweight road schedule with boobe traps at Oregon, Cal, Notre Dame, and Nebraska. Couple with the fact that excluding at Arkansas we didnt exactly set the house on fire on the road last season.
Throw in the fact that Booty at times struggled so bad at times last year that he seem to lack the confidence to complete a 5 yrd pass at Oregon St. So this coming season will be an adventure.

I'll second that last comment. I think I'll wait a few games before placing an advance order for any replica championship rings. Although with this defense, you have to think that the offense can lay a few eggs and still come out on top.
Fight on!

You are looking at the wrong odds board. This is the odds board of the colleges who will be have major NCAA violations brought up against them some time during the year!!
Cheat On!!!!

"...it's an easy decision to see that USC should win the national championship next season."
It sure is! In fact, now that the Dept. of Pulling Numbers out of your A$$ has spoken, why even play out the season?
Not only are these numbers worthless, they trivialize the effort required to win championships.

Pete Carroll of course. Hell need to explain why he is no longer winning championships with the most talent in the country and no Norm Chow.

Trojan Encore:
What are boobe traps? Did you ask your girlfriend what they are? Your mind is NOT on the right subject. Wow I am having fun at the expense of this moron. Man what a joke, boobe traps! He is forgiven! It is obvious he has never worn a military uniform, oh well! Even my my 1976 Webster's has it listed:
booby trap:
(1)any scheme or devise to for tricking a person unawares. (2)a bomb or mine set to be exploded by some action of the intended victim, as when some seemingly harmless object is lifted.
TrojanEncore think more of military weapons more and less anatomy and will do OK, OK?
Don't forget to wear your boobe straps!
Don't you guys love it?

Door Prize,
You are an idiot.
Scott, I believe if you would filter out some of the trash some of the knuckleheads post on this blog you might have more respectable posters willing to visit this site.

Door Prize,
It's losers like you that gives this blog a bad name. You cone here and have nothing to say about football. You make childish remarks in lashing out at others. I assume you get gratification by doing that?
Why dont you take your non sensical remarks to some other site and leave this blog to those that want to talk seriously about football.
