​On paper, before the 2026 college football season kicks off, the Oregon Ducks have the best offense in the Big Ten, better than USC, and maybe the whole sport. Dante Moore is primed to be the first quarterback taken in the upcoming NFL draft, and he has an embarrassment of riches to throw the ball to. The Oregon Ducks’ receiver room is completely stacked with versatile weapons in Dakorien Moore, Evan Stewart, and Jeremiah McClellan. The Ducks also have two tight ends who can be better than last year’s first-round draft pick, Kenyon Sadiq.To complement that, Oregon has an elite run game once again. That sounds promising, and Oregon will be headed for offensive dominance. However, the USC Trojans have both a potential elite passing attack and run game. Here is my hot take of the week, for game week for the USC Trojans: Waymond Jordan and King Miller have their own case for best backfield in college football. Both backs have the potential to run for 1,000 yards. The Trojans’ offensive line will be better and more experienced than last year, setting both backs up for great success.Jayden Maiava is also set up for great success with an embarrassment of riches in pass catchers too, just like Moore. Maiava has a handful of freshman playmakers who can be special early. Mark Bowman and Boobie Feaster will become top targets for Maiava right out of the gate. With Tanook Hines healthy now, Maiava will have his Makai Lemon replacement. The Trojans’ offense will be very well balanced, and more than any other year, Lincoln Riley can really get even more creative in how he wants to attack defenses on a week-to-week basis. The Trojans offense last season was explosive; this year it will be again and finish as the best offense in the Big Ten. The Trojans offense will help propel USC back to its glory days this season.
