38-27 good guys.

Magic number is 30.  We score more than 30, USC scores less than 30.  We win.

30-16.  I think this new and improved defense can bleed SC, and a rookie QB like Browne, in the red zone.  Even its much younger version was very good when the fields got smaller.

Let's say 27-16. Irwin with his first career touchdown, McCaffrey with the other two.

Stanford 38
S.C. 20

The offense does its job, but the defense contributes to our total, too.  McCaffrey runs for 125+ and a score; he catches another 75+ and another score (he clears 300 APY on the day when you include return yardage). Burns is efficient with three TDs--one each to McCaffrey, Schultz, and Irwin, with a lot of yards to Schultz and Irwin across the middle of the field with the defense keying on Christian.  We get our fifth TD from the defense, probably on a Meeks pick-six.  The halftime margin is anxiety-inducing, just 17-10.  But we turn it on in the second half, scoring TDs on our first two possessions and then resorting to predictably conservative play-calling that churns clock but doesn't move the ball all that well, with a late pick-six getting us to our total.  The halftime theme is "what's wrong with Stanford's offense??" with the post-game answer being, "oh, nothing."

And even with a 18-point win, we get a continuous drone of "well, Bama beat SC by more, so Stanford isn't really that good" analysis in the media.
