Sept 8th - Neutral Field - USC v Ala : What would the line be ?

[Sam Odom]

Ala -7 1/2

[trytrytry]

alabama - 2 1/2

[frogsrangers]

Dude that seems like the perfect line, would split action well

[Sam Odom]

TTT , you're joking , right ?

[seaborneq]

Bama with all of their schollys versus a 70 scholly USC team. Bama -12.5. I would be all over it.

[King Mayan]

[FindTheLock]

USC is not on the same level

[Sam Odom]

sea , even in a close game bama would dominate the 4th qt

[Domestic]

7.5 sounds about right, like frog said, would split action well.

[paco]

Bama -4.5

[FuzzyDunlop]

Bama -9

[rm18]

I did not watch a second of those two games been watching MAC and Texas St. mostly but I think Bama -4

[CanuckG]

Bama -7

[DrAwInGdEaD]

Dont matter usc takes it easy.

[Balco10]

Bama -7.5...USC has never seen a D like them

[DrStale]

Bama -7

This. I don't think Bama catches the hook after one game against an overrated Michigan team.

[seaborneq]

is everyone forgetting that SC is not back up to the full scholorship limit? Bama mashes SC on both lines so no running and no stopping the run. SC is DOA

[LT Profits]

USC should not be ranked #1, they won't even win Pac-12. Alabama -9.5

[313 Champ]

Bama -5.5

[NYSportsGuy210]

I'd say Alabama (-4.5) opening and up to (-6) by kick off.

[paco]

USC should not be ranked #1, they won't even win Pac-12. Alabama -9.5

Whos gonna win the pac12 then? Oregon?

[LT Profits]

USC may be undefeated during regular season, but Oregon beats them in Pac 12 Championship Game. Lack of depth comes back to bite Trojans vs. Ducks speed.

[Sam Odom]

5 units on Bama - 7 1/2

[BigDeem5]

You guys are crazy. I mean clinically crazy. The spread would be Alabama -2.5 and I would take USC. Not saying it is a lock, but if you're crazy if you think Bama should be a TD Fav.

Bama last night played a QB who in the first half missed about 5 open receivers on slants and a defense who could not tackle. They also had lapses in the secondary, Barkley would exploit those. Michigan doesn't have the RB, WRs, or nearly the QB as USC - you nut jobs.

Bama's run game looked impressive, but I wasn't all that impressed with McCarron, he manages the game. He can't make passes when he has too.

USC would put up points on Bama. I believe USC would win the game. They have two stud RBs, one of best WR's in country (Woods/Lee) and also the best QB coming out of college in last 3-5 years. Their defense we will see how good it is versus the likes of Oregon and other pac 12 opponents.

Don't buy too much into that Ala/Michigan game. USC is the real deal and Kiffin can coach.

[Sam Odom]

BigDeem5 , Let's just say you are 100% right (i dont think so but)

The game is close 1st 3 qts

Bama would grind down USC tho... 4th qt would be all Ala , they are loaded with talent and VERY DEEP

Ala would win by 10+ maybe even 21

[broadway6]

Bama -6.5

[InTheDrink]

Deemer had a decent write up and then says Barkley is a better qb than luck...and even if he was, there was someone in the last 3-5 years who was better than them both...and cam newton?

You are the one clinically crazy if you think line would be less than -7. I think my -9.5 is actually light in relation to how much better Alabama REALLY is, but -10 would have lopsided action on USC (which I personally think is a good thing but books wouldn't like the risk). It seems you are underestimating Bama defense, they will be just fine even with the losses from last year.

[jjgold]

USC and easy

Top Flight QB
Top Flight Skilled players

Bama could not stop them too much
Bama could not score enough
Deemer wins here

Bama's secondary isn't as good as last year's, or even close. Barkley for 325 and 3 TDs

[ronzer]

Bama hasn't faced any decent offenses since Auburn in 2010 and they barely won that game.

[ronzer]

side note i know its only one game but how close do you think a game would be between todays USC and Reggie Bush's USC?

[GoBlue77]

lmao @ all you sucking on bama's nuts. a touchdown spread, check yourselves into the asylum now please. if you think just because bama beat up on michigan they would do it to USC, bahahahaha!! last night was a home game for bama by the way if you really looked at it.

[Sam Odom]

lmao @ all you sucking on bama's nuts.

Yep , bama aint did shit in the last 3yrs unlike USC

[LT Profits]

Barkley for 325 and 3 TDs

The only way that happens is if USC is playing from behind after Alabama builds a big lead. And even then it's highly unlikely
