Who will USC lose to next year? 2005 Date Opponent Sept. 3 at Hawaii Sept. 10 TBA Sept. 17 Arkansas Sept. 24 at Oregon Oct. 1 at Arizona State Oct. 8 Arizona Oct. 15 at Notre Dame Oct. 22 at Washington Oct. 29 Washington State Nov. 5 Stanford Nov. 12 at California Dec. 3 UCLA
Maybe TBA will exploit SC's weak run defense. Other than that, as much as I hate to say it, nobody on their schedule poses much of a threat.
What's really bad is that Arkansas really might be their toughest test. That schedule includes only 1 team that finished inside the top 20 this season, and got blown out by Texas Tech in the bowl game. Edited to say I checked the final rankings and Arizona State finished at 20, so it should say only 1 team that finished in the top 19.
Oregon, UCLA, Stanford, and ASU have a chance IMO... Cal will have new QB could cause problems, Washington still has to be built back up, Wash. St. had one decent season 2 years ago, Arizona still needs some work, Notre Dame will need some quality recruits to play with USC, Hawaii has no chance because TImmy Chang is gone and so is their offense, and finally Arkansas lost their team with 9 year starter Matt Jones finally loses eligibility.
I think that Arkansas will be their toughest test...but they could fall to a number of teams on the road...just depends on if the opponent brings their A game!
