Assuming Wells is healthy and everyone is ready to go, give some predictions. I would be curious to hear your opinions on the matter.


USC 34
OSU 17

USC wins. OSU keeps within around 10 or so.

with healthy wells

OSU-24
USC-21

I thought this game wasn't going to be all that close, but I'm a bit more confident in the offense now

Ill take it PalmBeach!

I will be curious to see how our offense handles that defense. I know LSU shredded it last year. It seems OSU is guilty of over pursuing and blowing coverages. Be curious to see if they have all of this ironed out against good teams.

OSU 24
USC 21

But the game not really that close...its 24-14 throughout the fourth quarter and USC gets a late TD to make it close.

I dont see it happening. I think Boeckman is a lousy QB and USC will make it a point to stuff the run but hey, anything can happen and if USCs offense gives the ball away, it could happen.

Careful. Sanchez was absolute shite last year. He hasn't proven to be Matt Leinart in my book yet.

usc will get more than 31. ohio states defense is vastly overrated as we saw what LSU did to them last yr and they were supposedly the number 1 ranked defense.

usc 38 osu 14

I dont think Sanchez is as physically limited as Boeckman which makes him a little better IMO.

35-20 USC. That is being modest. USC is going to rock shite.

Not a chance. OSU won't give up 47 points.

1:after watching osu in person this weekend and usc on television i believe usc will beat the shite of todd boeckman and ohio state.

there is no way osu has a chance of winning this game if boeckman plays the majority of the time.

any pressure and the guy panics, he is slower than my grandma, and his wrs werent helping him out much saturday which was quite shocking especially against lousy youngstown state.

2:beanie is a stud, but i highly doubt he will be 100% for this game.

3: carroll will out-coach tressell


i say usc wins by 10+ currently with beanie being questionable, etc

Because Beanie clearly plays defense, so if he's not healthy they will give up an additional 13 points. Makes perfect sense.

I would be surprised if either team scores over 35.

Sprint, I think its obvious the poster was saying Wells being on the field would make a difference in that he will keep USCs offense off the field.

Its really basic stuff to understand.
