Talk of past indicators aside not one person mentioned anything specific to this years South Carolina team that should make it be considered a tossup. I agree that Spurrier is a great coach, but what about THIS USC team makes them considered a "tossup" game?
I never said they had no chance, never said I wasn't the least bit worried about them but the word "tossup" has the connotations of a pick em' game and I just don't see it.
What's your point? Have you given any indicators that it shouldn't be?
That said - they had the #12 scoring defense in the country. They've pulled in their greatest stock of talent in the previous recruiting class than they ever had before (from a rankings stand point). USC with Spurrier has managed to do more with less than just about anyone.
Think of it as a "they have enough D to stop Auburn just enough, and enough O to where Auburn will really need to have improved on defense".

Present indicators give Au a win.

I agree with their strong defensive ranking being a potential problem for us. The quote above shouldn't be used though - their history isn't exactly stellar so their best doesn't necessarily indicate that it's an advantage over Auburn. I do not view this as a "toss up" as I still think we'll be a little better, overall.
