ANYONE who thinks that USC would "wipe the floor" with LSU on a neutral field is out of their mind. For all of LSU's shortcomings this year, we would not have 50 hung on us twice.

This year's LSU team would challenge for the Pac-10, and depending on where we played Oregon, could very well win the league. Remember, LSU's shortcomings are on the offensive side of the ball, not defensive. Pac-10 teams can't stop anyone, but they can score. I think LSU would beat USC by 10 points this year on a neutral field. Both have bad offenses, one has a good defense, and it isn't USC.

Furthermore, shut the frick up about USC. They are 8-4 with a win on the road against the Rose Bowl bound Buckeyes. The closest win we have to that is Auburn, which isn't saying much.

FWIW, I don't think USC would beat LSU this season. Maybe at the beginning of the season, but not right now. Too many key injuries, and to be honest I think Barkley has regressed under new OC Jeremy Bates. I think we need to fire his arse (Bates).

Next season will say a lot about where our program is headed, because the OOC schedule is pretty light for USC (UVA at home, ND at home, Oregon at home, Cal at home). If we don't win at least 10 games next season, just, damn.
