Ok, ok, ok!

30 -10 was my predicted FINAL score, ’SC winning in a blowout.

This is just BANANAS! is it really halftime? (there’s still 2 more quarters, anything can happen)

We can score another 30 and make me REALLY look like a fool.

It’s freaking COOL to be a Trojan! . . . . .that AND. . . .

Give BigBallsPete a month, and I’ll bet the house on us!

Fight On M-fers! (in a Conquest Chronicles Classy way. . . .if there is one?. . . if there isn’t? . . . . I just created it. . . .damn! I really need to get some sleep!

I get to experience the State Penn fans first hand and they are the epitome of classless behavior. Meanwhile, you guys have earned the right to abuse other fans and yet you have not.

Go Trojans! Send Paterno and his band of thugs back to Pennsylvania as the pretenders that they are.

You guys are no doubt the National Champions.

Congrats on another facing, Trojans

It’s now clear to me that the Rose Bowl needs to revert to the pre-1947 practice of inviting an at-large team. The PAC 10 has obviously outgrown the Big 10. Not only can’t they win, but they can’t even compete.

Ain’t nobody wanting us to win this game. Nobody.

Smash mouth, my foot.

My buddy in Portland who’s sister went to Northwestern bet me $50 bucks my “30 – 10” prediction wouldn’t hold. If we win covering the spread, I get that fitty. If we win by more than 2 TD’s, I get a C-note. If PSU covers the spread, I owe him fitty. If PSU slams them by more than a TD, I owe him a C-note.

I ain’t one to gossip, and you ain’t heard it from me but. . . . . I’m buying me a phat bottle of Glenmorangie 24 yr old single malt. I’ll have enough change to catch a matinee to boot. (I’ll be higher than 10 Indians watching me some Despereaux. . . .what? I liked that book. Didn’t you?)

Good game guys

You were definitely the better team and while I was shocked by how poorly coached PSU was, the difference in athletic ability between the two teams was obvious. It’s a shame you guys had to play another overrated, slow Big 10 team. While some liked to talk about how good Penn St.’s defense was, the fact is the best offense they played all year was 40th in the nation. You guys are way too good for a team like that and it would have been great if you could have played on of the Big 12 or SEC teams. That would have been a fun one.

by Ryan Rosenblatt on Jan 1, 2009 6:46 PM PST reply actions

Too bad you and your buddies at BN (Mursh!t, Menopause etc) won't be sporting PSU gear tomorrow

Did you actually say SC’s poor travel killed Pac-10’s Cotton Bowl arrangement? Is this accusation coming from a fUCLA fan? Really? I never seen fucla fans travel well. And remember the Rose Bowl 80% filled Wisconsin fans in 1994 and 1998?

Hey, he’s making the effort . That’s something.

by DC Trojan on Jan 1, 2009 7:18 PM PST up reply actions

I never claimed UCLA traveled well

but as the marquee team in the conference, how USC does in anything affects the perception of the conference. It’s pretty well known that when USC had a poor showing in Dallas that the Cotton Bowl officials were not happy and reportedly the SEC was contacted about affiliating with the bowl within a month of the USC Cotton Bowl. UCLA doesn’t travel well at all and USC’s support is far better now than it has ever been so maybe today they could fill the Cotton Bowl (or soon to be Jerry World), but USC’s poor showing doomed the Pac 10’s affiliation with the Cotton Bowl.

by Ryan Rosenblatt on Jan 1, 2009 7:18 PM PST up reply actions

Did we have the same level of bandwagon support in 95? I don’t think so but I was on the east coast then.

by DC Trojan on Jan 1, 2009 7:19 PM PST up reply actions

I was only 7 so I don't remember well enough

but I’ve been told by a number of USC fans that the football team has never been nearly as popular as it is now. If you guys were in the Cotton Bowl today I think you could sell out your allotment easily.

by Ryan Rosenblatt on Jan 1, 2009 7:22 PM PST up reply actions

Echoing rye's sentiment

Excellent talent, excellent coaching=big wins over everybody. I haven’t been too happy watching your ketchup-clad boys clown the opposition (and us) over the Carroll Era, but there’s no doubt at all that USC is the premiere program in the Pac-10 and probably the country. Anyone knocking you guys for the wins over the Big -10 seems to be forgetting that you guys have lost one (ONE!) non-conference game since Carroll’s first year (IIRC) and that was to Texas in the NC game. You’ve beat the SEC, Big-12, Big-10-everybody. That’s a record to be proud of. Congrats to you guys, and I hope Mays, Sanchez and everyone else considering early entry leaves. We need a break.

USC has lost to Kansas State twice, Utah once, and Texas once. I think those are the only non-conference losses that Pete Carroll has over his tenure at USC. Utah and Texas were bowl games, Kansas State was a home and away. We lost them both.
