2024 Playing for Bowl Eligibility Episode #4 will be commencing at 3PM CST.
This week’s contestants are the USC Trojans who bring a 4-5 record to Coliseum. And as I similarly warned last week in this column, they’re probably not going to look like a 4-5 team.
They are currently ranked #24 in Jeff Sagarin’s computer rankings which focus on scores and strength of schedule. The Trojan’s strength of schedule is currently ranked 13th. There are some glitches such as the one which has Ohio St. at #1 and Oregon at #7 despite Oregon having the tougher schedule and the head-to-head victory, so take it with a grain of salt.
