Ballgame.

LOL. Gotta love USC. Celebrity school, highlight reel team that is a lead pipe lock to fail every gut check.

Every year, they're the best thing since sliced bread, and every year, a terrible loss to a vastly inferior team. That's Pete Carroll for ya, LOL.

I disagree. They always WIN the gutchecks. They win the big games, most of the close games.

They just get beat once a year by teams they are favored by 25 points over.

You've been watching a different team than I have then. This is a consistently a team that looks great on highlights and shrivels up when tested.

Whoa...

You mean the team that has won a couple of national championships this decade? The team that has won pretty much every showdown game save the nat championship against texas?

You can't be that far off on a pass that late in the game. That wasn't even close.

Well I KNOW they have won 2 mythical nc's this century.

Not that I care for them...but let's be fair.

They won one national championship by my count, in a trashing of Oklahoma during which they were never tested.

Last year, gut check game against Oregon. Fail. Gut check game against Stanford. Fail. Gut check game against Texas in the Rose Bowl in '05. Fail. Gut check games against Oregon State and UCLA two years back. Fail. Fail. Gut check game tonight. Fail.

The only gutsy win I remember them having was that one against Notre Dame.

If you think this team isn't consistently a paper tiger, then fine. But I've been seeing this happen for years, and it never ceases to crack me up.

USC will still get a chance to play for the BCS. One loss doesn't do you in as we have seen....just nice to see the little guy (Rodger's) get a chance to do something.
