Props to Scott Bruno. Scott and I watched the game together. Prior to the game, Scott predicted that USC would lose at some point this season while I did not see it happening. I do not believe either of us thought that USC would lose to Oregon State.
What does that mean for the BCS? Right now, Oklahoma is ranked #2 and Georgia #3. The Oklahoma/TCU game this weekend will bear watching this weekend; Oklahoma lost at home to TCU in 2005 17-10. And Georgia gets to play Alabama on Sat night on ESPN at 7:45PM EST. It sure seems as though the craziness of college football is just getting started.
Predictions for some of this weekend's games:
Wisconsin should roll Michigan
I like Penn State over Illinois
Michigan State to crush Indiana
Auburn over Tennessee
I like Georgia over Alabama
It should make for a great football weekend. Go Bucks!

ReplyDeleteIf OSU can straighten things out and win the Big Ten, could we have a rematch in the Rose Bowl with the Trojans of USC?
Steve: It certainly is possible. Considering how both USC and Ohio State are now in conference games, both teams need to focus exclusively on winning their conferences. Neither team can affect how the pollsters vote them, but they can determine whether they will win their respective conferences. If USC and Ohio State win out, yes, we would see a Rose Bowl rematch, and hopefully a better performance by Ohio State. I have no doubt that ABC would prefer Penn State or Wisconsin to win The Big Ten rather than have a rematch.
