The Stanford Cardinal take on the USC Trojans Friday with the Pac-12 Conference Championship on the line. These two teams last met in early September with the Trojans winning convincingly. Before we over extrapolate from the results of one game that happened an eternity ago in college football time it is important to take a look at what the Trojans have done on the football field since early September.
Common opponents/results: USC and Stanford are both 8-2 since their last meeting Both schools have close (or closer than should have been) wins over Utah and Cal, both teams have narrow defeats on the road to Washington State.
