USC 44, Arizona State 24 (final)

I think we need USC to win this one. A win over USC in the Rose Bowl will help us more in the pre-2008 polls than a win over Az State or the Ducks without Dixon.

I would also like to put ASU a little further in our rear view mirror. I don't trust the pollsters or the computers not to let ASU jump us in our BCS chase should they win out.

I'll take ASU.

Not only do I think they're good, but I think it would be a great story if Dennis Erickson gets a team that was supposed to be in 'transistion' to Pasadena.

USC? It just would not sound right if a team that lost to Stanford at home as a 41-point favorite went to the Rose Bowl. It sounds like backing in, IMO.

Arizona State, USC may upset tummies
Thanksgiving matchup could make mess of Pac-10 picture

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH

TODAY
Southern Califonia at Arizona State, 8 p.m.
SATURDAY
Oregon at UCLA, 3:30 p.m.
Notre Dame at Stanford, 3:30 p.m.
Washington State at Washington, 7 p.m.
SATURDAY, DEC. 1
UCLA at Southern California, 4:30 p.m.
Oregon State at Oregon, 4:30 p.m.
California at Stanford, 7 p.m.
Arizona at Arizona State, 8 p.m.
Washington at Hawaii, 11:30 p.m.



For those fans on Thanksgiving Day who seek a microcosm of this wackiest of college football seasons, just peer into the boat that holds the dark, giblet gravy labeled "Pac-10 title race."
It has relevance to Ohio State, too. Barring a tumble of three of the four dominoes (No. 1 LSU, No. 2 Kansas, No. 3 West Virginia and No. 4 Missouri) at the top of the Bowl Championship Series ratings in the next two weekends, the No. 5 Buckeyes likely will end up playing the Pac-10 champ in the Rose Bowl.

Buckeyes need USC to knock off ASU and prevent any possible leap frog
