Shortly after the 2009 NFL Draft in April, I started researching the best college football has to offer for the upcoming 2009 college football season. The first team I looked at was the USC Trojans. They drew my interest because Sportsbook.com had them listed as +500 (5 to 1) favorites to win the 2010 BCS National Championship. Only Florida and Oklahoma were as good or better. Since that time, new revelations implicating USC's involvement in major NCAA violations has cast a cloud over the entire athletic program. Since 2006 USC has been subject of an investigation involving former running back Reggie Bush who has been accused of allegedly receiving improper benefits from boosters considered illegal by the NCAA. Then in May, the basketball program also came under suspicion of impropriety after it was revealed former USC basketball player O.J. Mayo received an alleged cash payment during his recruitment in 2007. Mayo only played one year at USC prior to entering the 2008 NBA Draft. [Week-1 NFL Lines are now available at Sportsbook.com...the sports wagering website that makes NFL wagering special. Sportsbook.com has the most extensive NFL betting board in the online gambling business offering lines on all aspects of the NFL game and college.]
It is possible the NCAA, an organization known to operate at a snail's pace, might come down with some ruling prior to football season; however. it's difficult to predict when the NCAA enforcement wing will decide on anything. Oddsmakers at Sportsbook.com have now adjusted betting odds on the Trojan's chances of winning the 2010 BCS championship to +700 or 7-1 odds. While researching contenders for the 2010 BCS national title I learned that Southern Cal lost 11 players to the NFL draft. Then the question arose in my head; how can the Trojans compete for a national title after losing 11 players including their quarterback Mark Sanchez? Among those USC is losing are their best defensive players, linebackers Brian Cushing and Clay Matthews taken in the first round by Houston and Green Bay, and 2nd round Rey Maualuga (Cincinnati Bengals) and Fili Moala (Indianapolis Colts)...and they will have to replace their quarterback Sanchez who also was drafted in the first round going to the New York Jets. Also wide receiver Patrick Turner was taken by the Miami Dolphins, linebacker Kaluka Maiava was picked by Cleveland and defensive end Kyle Moore was chosen by Tampa Bay. Placekicker David Buehler went to the Dallas Cowboys in the fifth round followed by cornerback Cary Harris to Buffalo in the sixth and safety Kevin Ellison to San Diego.
So if the Trojans lost 11 players to the NFL, most of any school, then who is coming back? For starters, the Trojans top guy under center is sophomore Aaron Corp. Coach Pete Carroll named Corp the starter prior to the teams spring game played April 24th.
"At quarterback, we've come to the point where we have to make a call on it to play in the spring game," said Carroll. "At this time, Aaron Corp is in the lead position for a number of reasons. He's been in the program, he knows the system very well, he communicates very well from the sideline to the huddle and his work at the line of scrimmage is good."
If Corp struggles then true freshman Matt Barkley could step in and take the reigns. "He's done things unlike Matt Leinart, John David Booty, Mark Sanchez, guys who've been extremely effective in the program," Carroll said. The Trojans really had to address some defensive issues in the spring by finding replacements for their numerous losses. It was a surprise when even the kicker was taken in the draft by the Cowboys. Placekickers often go undrafted getting their chance as free agents. That was not the case with Buehler whom the Cowboys made their fifth pick.
Junior transfer (Nebraska) Jordan Congdon and sophomore Joe Houston will be battling for placekicking duties into fall camp. Billy O'Malley was the only punter in the spring but is expected to be challenged by Jacob Harfman. Harfman is also competing for kickoff duties. The bottom line affecting USC's chances this season will be overcoming attrition. USC recruits some of the top high school athletes year in and year out be we (Sports-Odds.com) feel they have too much to replace to be a championship contender.
