As far as Ohio State goes....A win against USC would be huge. That win would redeeming to all fans in America (outside of SEC country. I'm not sure that Ohio State can go into the Colluseum and beat USC but I think it's going to be a good game.

I personally think that Ohio State should be ranked #1 preseason slightly ahead of Georgia and USC. Ohio State played in the National Championship and returns virtually everyone. Ohio State is more experienced than both Georgia and USC. Talent wise they are every bit as talented as anyone in the nation. Wells, Jenkins, Luarinitus and Boeckman are all probable first round draft picks.
