Texas beats OSU. USC gets lucky to beat ND. OSU thumps ND.

Texas +7.5 seems like an easy bet. USC should be a favorite, but there is no reason to think they can't lose or will win easily.
4/6 BCS computer rankings put Texas in the #1 spot at the end of the season, all this talk about Texas having an easy schedule is BS. There is do doubt USC is the favorite. They have been the #1 team all season in the polls and every sports writer in the nation seems to have a hard-on for this team.
Texas averaged 50.9 points per game and allowed only 14.6
Texas averaged 508 yards per game
USC averaged 50 points per game and allowed 21.3
USC averaged 580 yards per game
Anyone who thinks the outcome is a forgone conclusion is deluding themselves. Both of these are solid teams with a real chance to win this game. A particularly good or bad day for one or two key players on either team could be the difference.
We'll know soon enough. Good luck everyone.
