Prognosticating: USC

Behold the glory of a Riddell full-size replica Buckey helmetLooks great in any living room.

Last week Brownie won the prediction contest with his call of Ohio State by a 31-20 score. The game this week is just a little bit bigger and the prize reflects that.

Joe, of local gear shop Fans Team Shop (he's got your Ohio State Buckeyes gear covered) is offering up a full-size Riddell replica helmet as the booty to this week's winner.

Leave your score prediction in the comments to this post and the closest call will win the helmet and a copy of the DVD Across the Field. And just like last week, we're mixing it up a tad -- throw in your guess for how many yards of total offense USC will amass and the best call there will also receive a copy of the DVD.

Fine print:

  • Must be 18 years-old or older.
  • One entry/comment per person.
  • Your entry/comment must include a valid email address.
  • Duplicate predictions are ineligible — first come, first serve.
  • Deadline for entries is kickoff.

Although OSU has a great team the showing of last week shows that there defense can be run on... USC has 5 guys that would play at any school so I think it will be a long day for OSU. USC by at least 10 and maybe a plow out, we will see what team shows up....

Though this game may be about exorcising Ohio State's "Trojan Virus" or stealing Tommy Trojan's sword and pointing it at the SEC-led legions of "OH-HOWIHATEOHIOSTATERS"...THIS game - I feel - is MOSTLY about, Terrelle Pryor.

It's all there for him to take.

All I'll say is, if his star shines Saturday night in Columbus, Ohio State wins the game.

How about Barkley's post SJSU game comments? After his first collegiate game (where he handed the ball off, for the majority of the game), he said:

Among other things, Barkley was asked by a reporter on the field what he had learned about himself as a quarterback.

"That this is fun. This is easy. This is what I was made to do," Barkley said.

I asked Barkley if there was anything that was difficult.

"The run up the tunnel at halftime," he said. "That was brutal."

Our running backs get stuffed, TP throws 2 TD's, runs in another.. D or special teams takes one back, 2 FG's... USC runs well early, then slows down, and barkley gets exposed, this will be a great game...

Have some faith guys, I was born and raised in LA maybe its because my mom was a UCLA cheerleader (So my trojan hate runs deeper than most), but we can definitely do this, nobody on USC has been in a stadium as big as ours. Period. bring it guys and make them realize there not in LALA land anymore
