Texas WILL Beat USC By A LOT
Just had to be the first to start the trash talking. No, seriously, Texas is going to win with twice the amount of points as USC.
Anyone who thinks Rose Bowl pairnig of Texas and USC is a fair pairing of is seriously confused.
First of all i'ts in Pasadena, hardly a neutral site how many Texas fans will be occupying the general admission part of it?
My guess is not too many.
Secondly, the Rose Bowl is Pac-Ten's home, they are basically playing a home game for the national championship, as it would be if Texas was playing in the Cotton Bowl, anyone tell me that's not a fact.
Finally, despite the fact Texas prevailed (barely and through Herculean effort) against Michigan last year, that hardly proves Texas will repeat.
It's a set-up, made to look like a legitimate game, solely for monetary purposes.
I predict the outcome will be similar (but not identical) to last year's Orange Bowl.
Leinart and Bush will come ready to play, two Heisman trophy winners ni same backfield, but I would love to be wrong. (sorry I won't be).

The game is going to be a lot closer than people think, but I think Texas may have a good enough defense to slow down USC's offense enough for Texas' offense to outscore them. I agree 100% with the fact the USC is basically playing a home game, but let's not kid ourselves. When Texas went up to Ohio to play Ohio State in the horseshoe, Texas still came out on top. Although Ohio State ended up losing to Penn State later in the season, if they came to play the way they did against Texas, Penn State would not be ranked in the top five. Ohio State would have more than stomped Penn. Texas has done fairly well during their away games. Although the Texas A&M game was a serious disappointment, Texas still hung 40 on them. People continue to talk about how Texas isn't as good as people think because of that one game. Let's not forget about how many people watched USC cheat to beat Notre Dame, Arizona State gave them a serious run for their money (but that only showed the country how powerful USC's offense really is), Arizona wasn't far behind Arizona State, and little crappy Fresno State nearly beat them as well. Obviously time will tell, but Texas' tough games were narrowed down to their arch-rival Texas A&M who will play Texas tough whether they're horrible or not, Ohio State who could arguably be in the top three (and let's not forget that Texas scored another touchdown at the end of that game that not only was not given to them at the time, but was not even reviewed!), and besides that, Oklahoma State was the only school who came out and hit Texas in the mouth. That seems to happen every year, but when the final score comes up, Texas is on top by almost 20 (47-28). Call me wrong, but it seems to me that Texas' defense took the first half off (12-28) and when Mack got up in their butts about how crappy they were playing, they tightened up their D and the offense decided that was enough.

Man, guest, that was a very well thought out argument. You're right, Notre Dame should be playing Texas since, according to the rule books, USC should not have won that game. Somehow if Texas scored on the last play of the game against USC because Melton pushed Young into the end zone, I'm pretty sure, that wouldn't count. USC, the University of Spoiled Children.

Touchdown?
Just remember, Touchdown Jesus knows Reggie Bush cheated. BTW, I, along with all the other longhorns, badly wanted USC as our opponent.

I think Texas will win 48-21. I believe USC will have a major breakdown in the first half. If this comes Texas won't let the trojans back into the game and Texas will be the national champs. As much as I hate to be picking a Mack Brown team, this is my only explanation. To be honest I don't really want to root for either team.
