USC 34 Stanford 31
USC continues ground game for 175+
Barkley 250 yds, 2 TDs
USC defense with pick-six of Luck
In Vegas, Stanford is s 7 pt favorite with o/u of 60, which translates to a Stanford 33.5 to 26.5 win.
Beat the Cardinal!
Fight On!

Now this would be a "signature win."

43-35 USC (with 2-pt conversion in last TD drive)
If MB is given some protection, Woods and Lee should present major problems for Stanford's secondary. I wouldn't be surprised if we dink and dunk to those 2 dudes throughout the first few drives. If successful, this will allow Sc not only to take some shots deep but to also establish the run. Last time Stanford faced a tough road game, it lost by 3 TDs.

For what it's worth, Stanford's opponents are a combined 20-30 and only one of those teams is at .500 or above (UW 5-2).
Stanford makes few if any mistakes on offense and they have a 100% success rate in scoring in the red zone? They're that good on offense. Lane Kiffin said it all this morning, the offense "has to" score every time it is in the red zone. If Stanford executes well again:
Stanford 38 (OT)
USC 35

This is Barkley's signature game. Woods will play the whole game and be the difference. Oneil will have a great day on the ground and we see that Old K has been sandbagging us all season.

My, my, my. Quite a bit of confidence among the Trojan faithful on this blog, but I suppose that beating up on a motley assortment of Catholics and their Hawaiian Henchman has done a world of good Trojan self-esteem.
"Fear the Tree, son," my father used to say. "Fear the Tree." Of course, he said this not as a comment about Stanford football but rather for my own good, as his father (my grandpappy Kroger Von Albertson) had died tragically as a result of slamming his Lincoln Continental into a tree at 60 mph, with the lips of a young Mexican senorita wrapped around his... Well, let's just say that he was a Von Albertson to the last!
Why do I write to you this evening? I must admit, I thought I would have little enthusiasm for Stanford football this year, after Stanford's know-it-all A.D. Bob "Tostitos Fiesta" Bowlsby refused to listen to me when I sagely advised that Stanford replace Coach Harbaugh with Gen. David Petraeus, the man who made Iraq safe for many happy years of oil extraction.
Indeed, I took a leave of absence from my law practice and sought solace among the whores of distant lands across the Pacific. High and low, I made my way through palaces, bordellos, and opium dens, and my memories of the summer remain a haze of vigorous sleaze, nightmarish psychotic hallucinations, bare-knuckle brawling, and extreme humidity. Always, I demanded experiences ever more outlandish, which led to my journey "up river". What river? I never knew its name, if it even had a name. But up the river I went, until I came to the ruins of some demonic temple unspoiled by Christians or tourists, and there squatted a shaman.
The shaman and I inhaled deeply of the blue smoke from the burning fur of a "river yak", and whatever a river yak might be, the smoke from its fur opened a door to realms Beyond, and through that door stepped Satan himself, contract in hand.
"The BCS Championship," he said. "For your soul." I made clear that I wanted a real, permanent BCS Championship for my beloved Stanford -- not a crystal football that would be cruelly snatched away a few years later, as was USC's. "Reggie and I already made that deal," Satan replied. "I expect a man of your refinement would read the fine print." And so I did. And it was, by Satanic standards, a square deal. And so I signed the contract.
Thus, abandon hope, all ye USC fans who enter the Coliseum on Saturday. The fix is in. The infernal powers of Hell conspire against you! I have sold my soul, and I expect to get what I paid for! No one, not USC, not Oregon, not even the Green Bay Packers could prevail against the combined might of Andrew Luck and the Prince of Darkness!
Ever your humble servant,

Wow!! I love all this optimism by the Trojan fans...but I really don't think you all are thinking with your head...Stanford is LOADED at every positioin with a 6'5 267 pound FB that runs over Linebackers on lead blocks...if anything Stanford is going to avenge that 2 point win, I heard they are PISSED over that win last year.
BruRob: you are true Classy Cadre!! the trOXan make it hard to give them props with all their trash talking and cheap shotting and crying when they lose...but the Classy Cadre remain pure class!!!!
