OK, it's homecoming...so hopefully will come out fired up tonight.

McKnight is out so it will be up to Johnson, Gable and Green...and of course Havili. Will Harris will get the start in place of Kevin Ellison so he will get to make a statement tonight.

This is a different UW than we have seen before for two reasons. 1) Jake Locker is not playing due to a broken thumb and 2) with Ty Willingham beig shown the door this team, as a matter of pride, could come out and throw caution to the wind and really play above themselves and make a game of it.

I think SC will win but I am not sure about whether or not they will cover the spread. Of course, style points matter just so we can stay in the hunt for the BCS Title Game but I think that ship has sailed. Right now SC has to worry about winning the Pac-10 so we need to come out firing and put this one away early.

I will be online for the thread but as of this moment I am not sure if the game is on TV so as a back-up I will have the 710 ESPN feed going through my computer and I will comment from there.

Lets hopt the boys can put together a nice performance tonignt.

FIGHT ON!

Nice swing pass to RoJo

Little Low there in the throw…and a penalty on PT

by Paragon SC on Nov 1, 2008 3:45 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Well

It already looks like USC is going to be able to do whatever they want

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 3:46 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I would not mind seeing more of that

PT taking advantage of his height to pull in the pass

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 3:49 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Oh Yeah

Just FYI for anyone who does not live in SoCal, it has been raining on and off all day

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 4:04 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

nice catch by RoJo

not surprised…they won’t get that luxury against a better team though

by Paragon SC on Nov 1, 2008 4:08 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I am glad the QB handed it off

Taylor Mays was about to kill somebody on the Safety Blitz

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 4:19 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

You know looking at CJ on sideline

He doesn’t look very happy, but these kids got realize that scouts know who they are and what they can do. The nice thing about RBs from USC is that they are not beat up like others.

All of our backs will get a chance

To show what they can do in the NFL. Just be patient guys.

come on dammit

FOCUS…McCoy again

he is going to sit

by Paragon SC on Nov 1, 2008 4:22 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I Like it

Swing pass to Rojo in space. With his speed he could easily make something out of nothing.

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 4:29 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

HAHAHA

Half the distance to the goal!

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 4:33 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Is it possible?

That SC could pull off four shutouts this year?

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 4:40 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Stat line of the day comes from Clemson/Boston College

CJ Spiller: 8 rushes for 55 yards, long of 57

HAHAHAHA

I am not sure

If I have ever seen two players just stop and stare at each other in confusion for almost a full second in the middle of a play.

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 4:53 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Weird

Petros is sounding like an after school special or something, “Be Yourself!”

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 4:56 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

What good is a screen pass

Without the screen? The receiver was all by himself!

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 4:59 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

It's hard to get upset abou the PI call...

when you’re up by 42 in the first half. Still stupid, though.

by DC Trojan on Nov 1, 2008 5:00 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I want to see Sanchez pass more...

I realize we don’t need to score any more, but I want Sanchez to be sharp and confident for Cal next week.

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 5:05 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

you too

I was watching / putting the kids to bed during the first half. I liked what I saw though.

by DC Trojan on Nov 1, 2008 5:09 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Did anyone else watch the Florida - Georgia game?

That was an absolute beat-down. Florida’s looking so good they actually put Moody in a bit.

by DC Trojan on Nov 1, 2008 5:09 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

They just got rocked

I wasn’t able to see the whole thing, but it looked like Florida stuffed Moreno and essentially dared Stafford to throw into traffic. That could just have been the parts of the game that I saw, but Georgia looked completely overmatched.

by DC Trojan on Nov 1, 2008 5:12 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

ok come on guys

what are we doing here just smoke em

by Paragon SC on Nov 1, 2008 5:36 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

To be honest

I had a hard time convincing myself to tune back in from the Texas – Texas Tech game…

by DC Trojan on Nov 1, 2008 5:38 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

they did

They punted to the Texas 1, and then tackled the Texas RB on the first play of the series. It was magical.

by DC Trojan on Nov 1, 2008 5:41 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

GAAAH

Please preserve the shutout!

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 5:41 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

good tackle by Harris

key improvement – not using the effing helmet

by DC Trojan on Nov 1, 2008 5:42 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

excellent blitz

Clean and fast, as it should be

by DC Trojan on Nov 1, 2008 5:43 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

nice one CJ

Tech had the ball on 5 3rd down 48yrs Ist

What about...

The fact that everyone on offense is coming back next year except for Patrick Turner and Jeff Byers. I still think Mays will be back for his senior year too.

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 5:56 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

#37 is short!

Seriously, he looks like he could do backflips under the bed.

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 5:58 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Huge 3rd and 1 stop by Tech

Texas is going to have to punt again!

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 6:00 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I am actually coming out Nov. 22-25

for business of course there is not football or hoops games scheduled…just my luck

by Paragon SC on Nov 1, 2008 6:03 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Yeah

USC is on a bye for Football, and Basketball is playing in a tournament. Hopefully they’ll beat Seton Hall and get a rematch against Memphis.

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 6:06 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

true

A friend had tickets for tOSU but I couldn’t make it out. Oh well.

by DC Trojan on Nov 1, 2008 6:05 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

wow 19-0 Unreal

I think that hurts SC Texas won’t drop that far…

by Paragon SC on Nov 1, 2008 6:12 PM PDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Man Broderick has no fear

Just runs right into the opposition

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 6:18 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

again one of the young linebackers

Looks like these young guys have good hands

Paul D. Kelley

by so.cal.native1952 on Nov 1, 2008 6:29 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Yep thats a wrap

Those INTs helped preserve the shutout

by Laughing Stock on Nov 1, 2008 6:35 PM PDT reply reply actions actions   0 recs

that was quick

possibly the first time I’ve ever felt slightly sorry for a Washington team – it’ll pass. Willingham was looking a little misty there at the end.
