This is why the polls are a joke... <!-- http://twitter.com/bryandfischer/status/1336721346134016 --> .bbpBox1336721346134016 {background:url(http://s.twimg.com/a/1288907344/images/themes/theme9/bg.gif) #1A1B1F;padding:20px;} p.bbpTweet{background:#fff;padding:10px 12px 10px...
A Quick Observation on USC and the Polls...
One of the things that has frustrated so many of us so far this season is the hit that USC has taken in the polls. Now I am on record as saying that I think the polls are meaningless until after the forth or fifth game of the season. This give the team time to work out the kinks and in the case of...
The Polls and Expectations and how they are affecting USC
Lets just say that USC dropping in the polls yesterday after a hard fought win on Saturday is an adjustment to the lack of movement that some thought should have happened after the ASU game. Clearly this is an imperfect system and it would appear that we are seeing a backlash against USC but not...
Ted Miller is Dead On!
The comments by CBS' Tim Brando last Saturday really pissed a lot of people off and Brando heard from a lot of them. But of course Brando really didn't address the original comments, he whined about the mean SC fans who emailed him and glossed over his comments by simply claiming that he never said...
USC ranked #9 In both AP and USAToday Polls
Read 'em and weep... The Coaches weren't that generous to Alabama. Florida's drop is proportional as is UGA's. There is still a ton of football to play. SC better count their blessings and get freakin' motivated to take control of their destiny!
I guess Austin Murphy is off the USC Bandwagon
This might be a bit of a rehash from one of my post over the weekend but the article in question caught my after I wrote my other piece... A funny thing happened on one article's way to the SI.com copy editor.... Austin Murphy must have been up against a deadline because his piece from Friday...
Upset Saturday!
WOW, What a day! Friday sucked...I got all sorts of text messages, e-mails and voice mail messages poking and prodding me about our loss to Oregon St. on Thursday, couple that with a bunch of work issues and a few other things - well, it was a bad day! So I figured I could really watch some games...
Beauty contest beat-downs?
You could see this coming a mile a way. Those who vote in the polls can be a fickle bunch, as some who moved USC up in the polls might be taking a second look. Case in point: Matt Hayes of the Sporting News... No. 1 USC: Bear with me, everyone. The purpose of the poll isn't necessarily to slot...
USC 2nd toughest non-conference schedule
ESPN's Page 2 lists the programs with the toughest non-conference schedule. (Click to enlarge) This is why SC is looked upon favorably when it comes to the polls. They schedule tough games on the road and most of the time they win them. When other programs start doing it on a regular basis,...
About that #1 ranking...
As usual, Pete Carroll really couldn't care less... Coach Pete Carroll said he addressed the No. 1 issue with his players before practice, telling them, "It doesn't mean anything until we do something, and it takes a long time to do something in college football." Amen! I love SC but one win...
