That's besides the point though. The point was which matchup would be a bigger game, not which team is better. The USC/Oregon is shaping up to likely be for the Pac-10 title and BCS berth. It's going to have a hell of a lot riding on it, especially for USC. With a win, with the way the schedule is going to play out for other teams, it could mean putting them in the title game. As for which team is better, I have no argument with you saying that Boise St. dominated them that night. But since then, I think the teams have gone in opposite directions. Boise St. struggled with Fresno St. Fresno actually outgained Boise in passing and rushing yards and had more first downs. Boise was very unimpressive against UC-Davis and that's not even a division one school. Oregon has improved immensely from that opening game, which I thought was at Boise. If teams stayed at one level throughout the season, you'd have to give Boise the advantage. But they don't.
