This week's game features the #1 ranked team, the USC Trojans, taking on Syracuse @ MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford.

Last year, USC beat the Orange 38-17 at the Coliseum.

This year's Orange are much improved, and coming off a heartbreaking loss to Northwestern, 42-41, in Week 1. They hung in with USC in 2011, only being outscored 21-14 in the second half last year.

The Trojans are about as powerful of an offense as there is in the FBS this year, returning Heisman favorite Matt Barkley, along with two 1,000 yard WRs and two 1,000 yard RBs, with the addition of Silas Redd from Penn State. They hung 49 on Hawaii last week, including racing out to a 35-0 halftime lead.

As a reminder, all guesses/edits must be made by 1 hour prior to kickoff. The deadline is Saturday, September 8th @ 2:30pm EST.

There are sure to be some points put up in this one! Good luck!

Also, congrats to Bob, our winner from last week!
