Yes, the SEC is a much tougher league. That doesn't necessarily mean that an SEC team is better than a Pac-10 team. USC showed that they deserved to be in the bowl game when they blew out Oklahoma. Next year is a new year. Regardless of where USC starts, they still have to go out on the field & perform. I, for one, lost more money than I like to remember due to last year's Orange Bowl. I don't want to be the one to bet against them again, but they certainly can be beaten.
