you either over estimate USC's offense or under estimate PSU's defense. I think USC wins, but the game will be low scoring I could see USC winning something like 28-7. I would expect it to be a bit closer, but a scoreline like that wouldn't surprise me. What would surprise be is a 49-28 game. USC had the #1 scoring defense in the country, but it's not like the Pac 10 offenses were lighting people up. I don't understand why people think PSU will lose by 3 TD's. PSU has a great offense and a great defense, USC is the same. I don't think the game being in Pasadena gives them an extra 10 point edge.
