Unbeaten Trojans, Longhorns battle in Rose Bowl

The Southern Cal Trojans and Texas Longhorns will play for the national championship on Wednesday, January 4 when they meet in the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California.

Neither Southern Cal or Texas was tagged with a loss during the 2005 regular season, and the Trojans will be looking to repeat as national champions.

Oddsmakers like the Trojans in this one, opening the line at 6 in favor of Southern Cal. The Trojans are 6-6 ATS this season, while the Longhorns are 10-2. The total opened at a huge 75 points.

The Longhorns hope their 70-point explosion last game in a win versus the Buffaloes was no fluke and that their defense can keep the Trojans in check.

Pete Carroll's team hopes to build upon a 66-19 win over UCLA. They were 21-point favorites in that conference matchup and covered the spread.

hell I hope no players get involved in foul play between now and then
I suspect with the stakes involved both teams are running a tight ship

the sentiment is split rather evenly
for a pile on to happen some "turncoats" would have to go along
and bet big
my safety valve is I could retire

USC is far more prestigious than UT.

Everything on USC.

I recall you saying there was no way that USC would be favored over Texas and calling out hammy when he said USC would be atleast 5 point favorites. What happened?
