College football season is almost here, and USC looks to repeat after Unnerving the Sooners Completely in the Orange Bowl. Unfortunately, the season doesn’t end with a playoff – the NCAA gives No Chance At All of that happening. So we’re stuck with the BCS – a Bizarre, Chaotic System. The Trojans are stocked with future NFL players – who says there’s No Football in Los Angeles?
