How good is USC?

I think they are over rated...they have a fairly good team, but the PAC-10 is by no means a power house this year...remember last year when Ohio State was suppose to be the best team in the land and was blown out? It happens all the time, USC is a "Media Darling" Team...just like Notre Dame or Michigan...watch if Notre Dame wins four games, they will try to get them in a BCS Bowl...from what I have seen LSU is the best team in the nation and they have a heck of a lot tougher schedule than USC...if you go undefeated in the SEC, you have done something, just look how once beaten Florida put it on Ohio State...heck even my team Bama is showing signs of life...but if Bama sucked, I would say they sucked...USC will not win the National Championship...but with a weak schedule they might play for it...
