GameDay Open Thread - USC vs Stanford
Stanford Cardinal at USC Trojans, Nov 14, 2009 12:30 PM PST
I will make this brief...
There are a lot of puntits and experts picking against USC today. They need to reestablish people respect simple as that.
Stop Gerhart and SC wins the game. Luck is good but without Gerhart Stanford is one dimensional.
SC needs to run the ball. McKnight needs to have a big game. McCO and Haviliy will be key to taking some of heat off the running game. Satnford will have to respect them.
This is RoJo's time to step up and be a leader. He has the tools and the talent now he needs to set the tone. I don't expect SC to blow them out but they do need to play smart football. A win today goes a long way towards building the mental health of the team as we head into the bye week before playing ucla in two weeks.
Barkley needs to return to his early season form. He needs to regain his poise and not get rattled.
Leave your comments questions and rants here.
FIGHT ON!

Damn. Decided to record this one and get stuff done this afternoon – judging by the box score and the comments here, SC is lucky to not be down 28-7.
Are they trying to prove that Oregon wasn’t a fluke? Because it looks like they’re doing a good job if that’s the case.
by DC Trojan on Nov 14, 2009 1:59 PM PST via mobile reply actions
No this team just doesn't seem to have it
I didn’t care if this team won the pac-10 but I thought they would be good enough to compete for a nice Jan bowl. But right now I would venture to say they don’t deserve any bowl.

Why the hell...
…are we punting the ball in the 4th Q down 21? I mean, I know we’re really NOT used to being down by this much, so maybe that’s why we’re absolutely making the wrong call since we don’t really know how to react to this, but come on! Someone has got to watch NFL football somewhere. Especially with how our defense has played? I don’t get it. To me it speaks “we gave up.” That isn’t us. I’m so confused about this team…:(

…I didn’t fathom 3 losses, I don’t think anyone did, but given the amount of talent, especially on Defense, that we lost, I didn’t think 2 was out of the question. But for God’s sake, 3 losses in the Pac-10 alone is as shocking as it gets, though in retrospect, our conference has always been our only foe.
What a sad display on this homecoming weekend…T_T…

Nah….he knows he’s a God here. If ever a guy landed in the right spot it is Pete @ SC. I’m not happy at all right now, but I know he’s not either. I don’t see him leaving; if anything I see him energized by the challenge of taking a preseason #15 SC team forward next year. At the end of the day he can still finish 10-3, and if anyone here in SC land thinks that’s a “bad” season, they should just go root for UCLA. I’ve lived through some pretty shitty pre-Pete years and, compared to those, this isn’t one of them.

I doubt that...
…the Oregon destruction didn’t do anything. But maybe the home factor can make it sting more. I didn’t know we’d be missing Cush, Rey, Clay, Fili, and even Ellison this much.
After watching those two Stanford players talk ish into the camera, I CANNOT wait till Sophomore Barkley rips them a new one at Stanford next year. I’ll be there.

Luck...
…impressed the hell out of me today. I mean that from the bottom of my heart, that young man looked GREAT. He zipped some balls in that I thought had no chance.
That said though, you can’t ignore the revenge factor in terms of motivating the team because lets face it, most of these ’SC players will be here next season, and are very young.
I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a big win, but I can see Luck keeping it close. Still a long way till then however.

Okay Im curious to know the reason why Coach Harbaugh would go for two on that.....
I personally dont understand it at all as a fan of his and Stanford.
I didnt see anything in the media this week that would lead me to believe he would do something like this…..
Just dont know, and dont agree with it at all.

Takingh a stab at humor. But seriously....
for years SC has run the score up on teams. A little beat down never killed anyone. Just take it.

I see why they did it...
…but I contest the notion that we run up the score on purpose. When it’s out of hand, we tend to go into a run-ONLY offense. I certainly don’t remember EVER going for a 2-point conversion up by 21.

The TD drive that proceeded that 2pt attempt was a purely run only offense....
and the 2pt conversion was a run as well………
Having said that……….I personally still dont like that move……Karma is a b*tch and lord knows my Cardinal have been the b*tches on many occasions.

Thought this would be an even game guys
Never ever would have imagined Harbaugh & Co. would slap USC with a stunning loss on your home field.
Good luck for the rest of the season!
