USC-Raiders, What Would The Spread Be?

mmike032 · 09-13-08, 08:15 PM

Usc -3

LT Profits · 09-13-08, 08:19 PM

Raiders -17. We've been down this road before, the best college team can't compete with the worst NFL team.

englishmike · 09-13-08, 08:20 PM

I agree, 14.5 wasn't far away, not bad for a limey.

BuddyBear · 09-13-08, 08:21 PM

Try Oakland -41.5

dwaechte · 09-13-08, 08:21 PM

I wouldve put it atleast 30+

dwaechte · 09-13-08, 08:23 PM

Actually, it all depends on how motivated the Raiders were to win big. Any NFL team would be able to do whatever the hell they wanted against any college team. The line play would be a joke.

BeatTheJerk · 09-13-08, 08:24 PM

fuk that radiers -3 in my opinion

I'm with that. I would say upwards of -28.

LT Profits · 09-13-08, 08:26 PM

Buddy Bear,

I was trying to get balanced action!

BuddyBear · 09-13-08, 08:27 PM

Are you guys stupid? -3?, -14.5?, -17?

Do you not realize the players on USC are amateurs and the ones on Oakland are professionals? Do you not realize that the players on USC are still on their parents' health insurance? USC lost to Stanford last year (at home no less) and you expect them to somehow be competitive against an NFL team? There probably wouldn't be a drive where Oakland does not score against USC.

You guys crack me up....

hmmm......i think you'd get a lot of one way action on USC with a -17 line

ryanXL977 · 09-13-08, 08:29 PM

oak -25

rjt721 · 09-13-08, 08:29 PM

Raiders would score every drive. SC would struggle to move the ball into Oakland territory once.

USC wouldn't even beat Oklahoma, let alone be competitive against the Raiders. Seems every year people have an inflated opinion of the Trojans.

LT Profits · 09-13-08, 08:31 PM

I don't disagree with you at all BB, but there are many suckers out there that would take USC +20ish. Hence my lbalanced action quip.

I'm rarely right. Almost never, actually.

treece · 09-13-08, 08:38 PM

Raiders can barely score.

Join the club.

BuddyBear · 09-13-08, 08:49 PM

If Oak and USC played, i doubt OAK would ever have to run a 3rd down offensive play....

daggerkobe · 09-13-08, 09:00 PM

Trojans would beat the Raiders!!!!!!!!!!

SC currently has 5-10 future 1st rd picks that can play in the NFL right now. Many of the Raiders are only 1-2 year removed from college like Russell and McFadden.

Not to mention SC has far superior coaching staff.

Didn't u guys watch a rookie WR punk the Raiders on MNF????????

Trojans 42 - Raiders 28

gordon gekko · 09-13-08, 09:04 PM

Raiders -35.5

Tosser · 09-13-08, 09:18 PM

BB you are overreacting, where do Pros come from? How long is Russell playing in the NFL now? Why does Oakland suck if they are all so good compared to the USC kids?

Impossible to set a line and to cap how motivated OAK would be...but i would be all over USC +35..could count on 1 thing: USC would play with a big heart.

gordon gekko · 09-13-08, 09:25 PM

What about USC vs. Cowboys?

lol dunno, maybe -56?

jjgold · 09-13-08, 09:39 PM

Oak at least -25

WileOut · 09-13-08, 09:46 PM

Yea the difference is that a man does not reach his prime until he is mid 20's. A couple to 5 years after entering the NFL.

The offensive and defensive lines of the NFL team would just completely obliterate the college team.

The Raiders like every NFL team are pretty much national college all star teams except in their athletic primes while the college kids are still kids. Its not even worth talking about, really.

Raiders could win by 70 points against USC if they wanted.

I'd still take Oakland.

My first thought was 70.

I'd bet my entire bankroll at -17

People can't recognize this kind of difference easily.

The game wouldn't even be remotely close. USC-Raiders would be like a forum poster going up against a front page tout in a capping contest. It would get real ugly real fast.

Iwinyourmoney · 09-13-08, 11:46 PM

USC +53 vs Cowboys, USC +44.5 vs Raiders, USC -74 vs SBR Posters football team

pat venditto · 09-13-08, 11:48 PM

Mike Corbin +50000 Floyd Mayweather -50000

@ Mandalay bay for the welterweight championship

Kingctb27 · 09-14-08, 12:04 AM

Raiders would destroy them. -35

daggerkobe · 09-14-08, 12:05 AM

Wow this is getting more retarded.

Check the Raiders roster.... it's full of college underclassmen, journeymen and other undesirables. Now check the USC roster.... full of All-Americans and future #1 draft picks.

If u were given a chance to replace 10 Raiders with 10 Trojans you would do it in a heartbeat and it would improve the Raiders immediately into a playoff team.

daggerkobe · 09-14-08, 12:14 AM

Cowboys would beat USC by 21....... Raiders by 42.
