I will have a live game blog this afternoon. But first, who will win? Washington State has not played fot three weeks. I can’t keep track of how many players have been out with COVID-19. Everything about this year is unpredictable but I don’t think they can push USC for four quarters, even if USC plays down to competition. So I will take USC, 42-20. … Continue reading My USC-Washington State Pick
With Cal defeating Oregon tonight, the Pac-12 North will likely send an unranked team to the conference championship game. That won’t help the Pac-12 or USC. So if Colorado keeps winning, maybe the Trojans and Buffs should play each other. At least it might be a game between two undefeated teams. Even if neither team played anyone good.

Yes, there is a game. Tomorrow. I will post my score later but right now is your turn. Can Nick Rolovich possibly make this a game? Will a two-week break be too long for the Cougars? Will USC revert to habit and play down to its opponent? Can Kedon Slovis throw a spiral for four quarters? Continue reading Morning Buzz: Pick The USC-Washington State Score
