Vegas Line: Southern Cal -13 ~ -14

The oddsmakers have Southern Cal blowing us out by two touchdowns at our own home.  The line is Southern Cal by 13 to 14 points depending on the service. Not exactly a vote of confidence.  Remember, not one major poll had us picked to finish higher than 4th in the Pac-10 at the beginning of the season, and those predictions turned out to be true.  Our own analysis of the matchup, the key stats, would confirm the 2 touchdown spread.  Nestor at BruinsNation lays out the reasoning for why this year we will win. 

In other news, by now you all know that Pat Cowen has been named starter.  This actually got some national press surprisingly, front page of Yahoo Sports at the time it was released.  We agree with this decision, but think it’s odd to go public with an announcement that Ben Olson might be starting a few days ago, only to know go with Pat yesterday.  If this is KD being tricky it is in our estimation not well done.  Just stick to what you know KD … er … scratch that.  Just go out and win.

Keep one promise Karl: Let’s “shock some people!!”  Go Bruins!! Beat Southern Cal!!
