UCLA Bruins at USC Trojans, Nov 28, 2009 7:00 PM PST
I am going to put this up early so that I can watch some of the other games today.
Finally...
It is here. Time to get it on.
I am completely baffled and how which way this one will go. I am not necessarily buying that ucla has the momentum here. I am also not buying that all the pressure is on Pete Carroll as I read elsewhere. If anything I think its the other way around. Pete Carroll has not made any proclamations like Slick Rick did last night...SC has struggled the past few weeks so we know what we are getting with this team.
This is the only game that Slick Rick cares about. It has been his sole reason for all of his bluster.
So we will see how it goes.
Join Us here...leave your comments and rants here...
FIGHT ON!

Conquest
The defense needs to step up, big time today, can not allow ucla’s anemic offense to look like Oregon or Stanford. Mr. Mays you came back for your senior year, this game can save it. As for Mr. Barkley, he needs to play like he did at OSU, ist half at ND and KAL, otherwise we are in for a long night and a long year.

Here’s to hoping UCLA’s DLine & Linebackers pick up the run D!

Good Luck!
Even though it would be better for my beloved Bears for you guys to gag, I still find myself rooting for you tonight. Just like I’m currently rooting for the Furd.
I’m so confused. Damn you CC people for being cool!
Good luck and enjoy the game, guys.

Dude I realize that there are 18 reasons I should root for UCLA. Cal needs USC to lose another game to stay above them and their very enticing bowl finances. Its, yknow, fucking USC.
But I so dont want to make UCLA fans happy (and esp. that happy) for obvi reasons that Im conflicted.

They called a screen on 1st and 35
They had it set up nicely and the back looks like he didn’t get far enough outside to get the ball. That’s a complete execution error.
2nd down was a boot that was well covered.
I would have called something similar on 3rd down. Nothing good is going to happen while Barkley’s back there holding the ball waiting for guys to get open.

I’ll be honest, I’m not sorry they took the time out here. I am not confident about them getting the 3 yards here.

There's an old rule
in coaching. We’ll run out the clock if you don’t extend the game. Well Rick waited until the end to use his timeouts. This is 100% on him.

Is that how we defend this move? WE pulled a Harbaugh.
by uscdude on Nov 28, 2009 10:32 PM PST reply actions 0 recs
absolutely did not. we didn't go for two in a game we had locked. if rick is going to call timeouts there is nothing wrong with putting it in.

Rick could have used his timeouts at any point in the last 6 minutes to extend the game.
He called one as an FU to USC and USC returned the favor. I’m telling you it’s 100% on Neuheisel.

Agreed with the other comments here
Pete never cried about what Harbaugh did.
That said, Pete wrote himself a hell of a check with that move, and he’d better hope his ass can continue to cash it for as long as he’s coaching at SC. Harbaugh did the same thing with his move. Next year is going to be very, very interesting.

pete just said it... they were attacking at the line of scrimmage and calling timeouts so we took our shot. nothing wrong. if he went for two just to hang a certain score then yeah, it would be bush league like harbaugh.
