I might be looking a little ahead. But as I look at the top 25 teams of this year, it definitely seems possible. LSU and Alabama seem so far ahead of the game, especially going into next year. Just sayin

Alabama is a 3 loss team next year at minimum.

Hell even if not, after we beat them for a fourth game in a row in next year's regular season, I find it hard to believe there wouldn't be a significant amount of "rematch fatigue" to as preclude another BCS pairing.

LSU-USC would be epic.

Really hope Barkley stays as he should.

Don't think the BCS/Fans would put up with a BCSNCG featuring two teams from the same conference again.

USC will be hyped regardless. They can barely beat Minnesota and they will be hyped--just like they were this year.

ESPN needs ratings in the LA area, and the Lakers and USC are the way to get those ratings.

I would love a real stacked SEC team to get a shot at Kiffin, I think everyone in Tenn would buy and wear LSU gear for that!

Bama? Seriously? This was supposed to be their championship year. They'll be in rebuilding for 2 or 3 years after this season.

I'd say LSU-USC is looking likely. That'd be a fun matchup. I can't really think of any other teams that would easily be the #2 next year... It might be another season like this season where we're obviously the #1, and all the potential #2's keep losing.

I really hope Barkley and Kalil stay and USC is as good as advertised (doubt it) because that would be a game for the ages. Where is the championship game next ear orange or rose?

They need a coach.

Even Terry Bowden went undefeated when the games didn't count.

Over the next two years Kiffen will manage USC's slide back to above-average PAC-12 team, and he'll do it with oodles of talent on the sideline.

If I used the phrase "Book it!" I'd use it here - but I don't.

Barkley should go. This year he is a top two or three qb, next year he is a top two or three qb. No way he should risk either injury or a down year preventing him from making oodles of money.

Injury possibility, yes. A down year, no.
