The match-up of the year is Saturday, if you believe the media-hype, only three weeks into the season when Ohio State travels to USC for the "collision in the Coliseum." Yes, like snowstorms and other weather disasters, this one even has a name. I know you'll be surprised to find out that I just don't get it.
I don't get the love affair with either school, especially the current one with Ohio State. You'd think that no other teams exist, or at least, no other teams could possibly be in contention for a national championship. Since Ohio State doesn't seem to have what it takes to show up for the big games, I'm going to personally give USC the edge in this one. Ohio State looks sluggish and with the recent injury to Beanie Wells, it looks like they'll be short one important player. If USC wins, they will certainly be presented with the National Championship Bowl Game rose, inviting them to compete for the title. Don't be surprised to see the "collision" in the Coliseum become a collapse in the Coliseum, a disappointing end to the over-hyped frenzy building up to the game.

Wow, you got that one right. Ohio State is only ranked up there because they play in a weak conference and there has to be somebody that makes it through with a good record in the Big 10. Ohio State needed to win this game and it would be a cake walk to Miami. Look at Clemson, bad conference, bad team, but a high ranking. Why doesn't Georgia or Florida get the hype? Maybe because no one believes that they can make it undefeated.
