Matt Barkley throws a record SIX Touchdown passes in win over Colorado

Photo

I am not going to say that this was never in doubt, 'SC did look sluggish and tired. Hard not to see why and its completely understandable.

Either way USC kept the momentum going.

Barkley finally broke the record and that is great but It is a little hollow to me because its against an outmatched Colorado.

And Lane Kiffin is sure to ridiculed for going for it with the game in hand.

Oh Well, damned if you do damned if you don't.

I am little concerned about about the injury to Rhett Ellison. Curtis McNeal had a decent evening but was hardly seen in the second half...was he injured?

I am sure there will be more to discuss, but for now I am happy for the win...the guys shook off the loss to Stanford and did not get trapped in a letdown.

So, feel free to fire away, this our post game thread.

FIGHT ON!

It looked like McNeal was nicked up

So I think they just decided to take him out after we went up 35-10

all in all, pretty good

Some odd coverage issues, some iffy tackling, but the defense did a sound job more often than not… And even if it was by necessity, I like seeing Kiffin roll in more players on offense – Carlisle looked really good tonight.

Carlisle is THE prototype for all future Trojans. His post-game interview was just fantastic.

Considering the amount of freshman and backups we were using, after the first series I was fairly impressed with our defenses output

Even more so that we held them to a field goal on the Barkley interception

Carlisle looks very good!

Only other real standout that I noticed was Drew Mc in the 1st half – tight coverage and sound tackles.

Vegas had this one on the money

The line was SC by three TDs with overs and unders at 57. That predicted a final score of 39 – 18. So, SC did just what the folks in Vegas thought they would. Most everyone else thought the same. So, back to L.A., look at the film, get better, prepare for Washington, try to end a couple of losing streaks, and finish the season strong. Though against Colorado, Barkley did have a record setting night (threw for 6TDs) prompting the biggest question of the evening… whether or not Matt Barkley will leave next year for the NFL. Probably will… after all… that’s what people go to college for… to get a good job.

Box Score caveats

Box score shows all the warts on sleeping beauty…
 
turnovers: USC 1 Colorado 0
rushing: over 100 yards total with 86 for their scatback Stewart
passing: strangely USC outgained Colorado but only 68 yards (318 – 250) shuda been more

plus there was the Wood’s TD kick return nullified by a holding penalty.

I know… picky picky picky…. BUT even if it was Colorado… this stuff counts and will count over the next three games…

ESPECIALLY in two weeks… watching Colorado’s Stewart run in and around the Trojan defense wasn’t exactly reassuring…. hopefully the SC staff takes note… they better or that trip to Eugene could get ugly.

I can't resist hoping the ruins beat ASU tomorrow. Hey Dirty Larry, call the refs, Ucla must lose!

It will mean the destruction of Larry’s plan, when the Pac-12 South champion is an also ran.

It’s cracking me up! Even if Stanfurd makes it past the ducks they will get zero credit for winning a sanctioned conference. Especially if USC beats the Ducks, and we will! Bwahahahaha, the SEC/BCS will tell Dirty Larry to stick it up his Ivy! It will be an all SEC MNC game, or Okie State, or even Boise State.

Sorry Larry, this is football, it is a man’s game. As you are finding out, you can’t promote it like that WTA tits and ass show or yours. Those hot eastern block chicks, they like it (tennis) loud and hard! is there a difference between Maria’s grunting and her moaning? Where are the Williams sisters? None of them can save your bacon now.

Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!!! Go bRuins!!!!!!!!!!

It's really Funny how most bRuins think John W. was the greatest thing in all of college sports.

McNeal was hurt in the first half when he took a hit on his left hip—Quad and on the first carry in second half got hit there again, never came back after that. I don’t know about Rhetts Knee since he buckled when going down and was wearing a brace on it at the start of the game.

Pac-12 officials please Mexican Cartel come and manage them.

I acknowledge that Wooden was maybe the greatist College BB Coach of all time

but its just naive to sweep the Gilbert stuff under the rug. I’m not even sure it effects his legacy, he was just as “dirty” as everyone else. He coached under the same realities as McKay. What I hate is the hypocracy (of many Bruin fans) , that McKay is a cheat, but Wooden is pure.

Anybody could have won with the players that Sam bought for ucla, plus they only started with 32 or less teams

When they expanded the tournament uclol was out of luck until Lorenzo Romar was signed as an assistant coach and he got the local horses to come to ucla.

Very well put

I understand the “different era” argument with respect to Wooden, although I’d argue that things haven’t changed as much as they might like to think. But if someone doesn’t apply that reasoning to everything in that era, that’s hypocrisy.
