I’ve got USC covering against Fresno St. and I have Cal keeping it close with that Wilcox defense, but just not enough to overcome Notre Dame. USC 42-24, ND 28-21.
I hate to say it, but my gut tells me BYU beats us at home. I’ve watched enough of their games to know that BYU is a tough, well-coached team. They play up to their competition and they expect to win this game. Based on the manner of the Utah losses/the Alamo Bowl/the overall draft last year, and the massacre I saw two weeks ago (throw out last week), our players were significantly under-developed under Cristobal according to expert projections vs. current ratings. In my opinion, after watching college ball since a child, it will take a couple seasons of continuity, getting bigger and more physical, and more skilled and to comfortably predict this game and be legit playoff contenders again. However, the power of Autzen should not to be underestimated and I hope I’m wrong about all of it. Go Ducks!
Cougs play at 2:00PM
Wow, you really think Notre Dame is awful. Wilcox also loses games he shouldn't -- Nevada, TCU.
My sense is BYU will edge out the Ducks but agree the margin will be low single digits.
