Where does USC stand Nationally?

Since Sam Darnold took over this is clearly a different team. Aside from Alabama, I think the Trojans can play and beat anyone in the FBS Top 10.

Your thoughts.

USC has come on past 7 weeks but the Buckeyes would run all over them and on a neutral field I wouldn't be surprised to see Clemson and Louisville do the same.

You and I have disagreements, but this ain't one of them, but I'd throw Michigan in the fire. They are gonna show Indiana Kansas this weekend, as in, Toto, I think we're in Kansas, the damn tornado that hits them will be near epic. Harbaugh is not a guy to be angry when you're opposing him but the Hoosiers happen to be in the path. I don't know what Speight's back-up looks like but I'm sure they'll figure it out. This game could get damn ugly quick.

Also, the USC program has shown to be soft since Carroll left. Team packs it in when they get punched in mouth. Maybe under Helton and Darnold this changes but until they show they can comeback in a big game after being down by 10+ points early, I have to consider them a second or third tier team.

Also think LSU would have their way with the Trojans.

Doubt if they cover this week against UCLA

In my personal power ratings I have the Trojans just outside the top 5 in a log jam with a few other teams. Yeah I think LSU is playing well right now and might give them problems, but that being said I think USC would give Michigan and Clemson all they could handle as well.

I think that Bama game showed USC how to be more physical

I would hope so. Hopefully they get a great bowl matchup.
