Cal doesn't stand a chance, and USC hasn't been this bad since 01-02. If people were to assume, there'd be reason to.

And again.

Cal sucks.

USC was good once upon a time.

And Chip Kelly isn't Mike Belloti.

These are also undeniable facts.

If Ohio State had any kind of special teams coverage and weren't tremendously overrated, Miami would have been blown out. I have a feeling Clemson is going to walk away with the ACC championship.

The first part of your statement is true, they lack in special teams. However I don't see how you can say they are overrated. At least not yet anyway.

Not saying the ducks will cruise. But so far cal and USC look pretty awful and I feel good about oregons chances against both of em.

S- happens.

If we get blown out by arizona than i think you can safetely assume oregon will roll cal. either way Cal has the second best home record in the pac-10 over the past 5 years. even in years we've sucked we've taken care of business against oregon at home.

The season is early and oregon has yet to have played a defense with a pulse (no offense). I'm not saying cal is going to win the pac-10, but Cal can certainly beat oregon at home.

I'd be willing to bet UT's defense is better than Cals. :ermm:

No question, but oregon fans will need a couple of sucky seasons and ncaa probation before they realized they've hired forest gump.

Not everyone is destined to dwindle in eternal mediocrity as Cal is. Chances are, the Ducks win the Pac until USC comes back around and Kiffin is fired.

I wouldnt' take that bet. UT has no depth.

Cal has a better record than oregon since tedford took over. Please don't confuse a couple of decent years with any move towards dominance. It's really delusional. You team is still located in eugene.

Perhaps, but Belotti's teams seemed to consistently sleepwalk in road games. The same may proove true for Kelly's teams as well; We'll see.

Oregon's road record with kelly as OC and head coach is pretty damn mediocre.

And Cal isn't very good on the defensive side of the ball. I honestly can't remember the last time the Golden Bears were ranked ahead of UT in terms of total defense. I mean hell, you were carved up by Nevada for 50 points. Nevada...

And how many conference titles or BCS births has that gotten Ted? Cal is irrelevant, as they always are, and will remain as such for the foreseeable future.

I can't honestly remember a worse team that tenn has ever put on the field. As for nevada it remains to be seen if that was a scheme or talent issue. As i said before, talk about how crappy cal's d is if zona blows them out. until then i'm assuming we can handle oregon, just as we have 3 out of the last 4 years.

He's owned oregon. That should be enough for you since they are clearly one step away from being florida or texas.

Even still, their defense is better than Cals. I very much doubt they'd give up 50 points to Nevada.

And yet, Cal remains irrelevant. And no, Oregon isn't Florida(I would know) nor Texas, but they aren't Cal either. They actually have a lilttle bit of success from time to time. Cal can't even claim that.
