The Wall Street Journal wants to see a USC-SEC matchup in the BCS championship game:

With universal No. 1 Southern California seemingly certain to reach the national championship game — those Arizona State and Oregon obstacles look smaller and smaller all the time — the real drama lies with the unfolding derby between the Southeastern and Big 12 conferences. Which of these leagues, each stocked with multiple top-10 teams, will supply the Trojans’ competition?

With no offense to the great offenses of Missouri, Oklahoma and Texas, here’s hoping it’s the SEC.

Although we generally agree with the sentiment—in other words, we’d love to play in the title game against an SEC opponent—we always get a little nervous when the Trojans’ appearance in said title game becomes a foregone conclusion. Especially when that happens in September.

    Damn you and your clairvoyance!!! Why couldn’t you have said, “… we always get a little nervous about winning by only 3 touchdowns when the Trojans’ appearance in said title game becomes a foregone conclusion. Especially when that has nothing at all to do with what month these conclusions are being drawn in. None whatsoever.”
