Rose Bowl: USC 49, Illinois 17 (final)

[cjmik_75]

on the bright side-

dark jersey team wins another bowl game.

what's the running tally?

I'm a bit superstitious about that sorta thing.

Last year -BoiseSt vs Oklahoma same field as the debacle:(

 

[Tonyank]

No respect out of these kids anymore :( Its sad that coaches let some of this stuff go on!

I can't defend Kirk Herbstreit anymore.

I have no problem if he has legitimate criticism for Ohio State, and I've defended him on that front. But when acts like 99% of the other douchebags in the sports media, he can go to hell right along with them.

USC's ridiculous celebrations, overall thuggery, and the way these media guys are all over their nuts is quickly making them my least favorite team in the nation aside from Michigan.

The celebrations have been bad tonight...but thuggery?

 

[OregonBuckeye]

Someone needs to do a fark of Herbstreit and Mussberger in USC gear.

 

[Tonyank]

1st round draft picks this year will be all USC players if it were up to Muss

 

[OH10]

Seriously, how many times did Illinois try the halfback screen in this game?

 

[Jaxbuck]

Thanks for reminding me why you annoy me so much, Kirk.

If there was any question he has become nothing but an ABC/ESPN shill it has to be answered now. You can call the game and give USC their due without the indiscriminate knob slobbing.

Gotta love his commentary on how high the USC kid jumped when he was taunting the other team after a TD.

When he gets back he needs to get taken to task for this shit on his local shows. He's a fucking disgrace.

Ron Zook must have thought to himself:

"The option has not worked all night. By now they'll think I have abandoned it, so it's the perfect time to run it again!"

 

[cjmik_75]

wow the Illini offense has looked like a bunch of unorganized preschoolers shitting all over themselves

 

[bkochmc]

Seriously, how many times did Illinois try the halfback screen in this game?

1st Down: Mendenhall run
2nd Down: Screen to Mendenhall
3rd Down: Juice draw/chuck it deep

Repeat as necessary.

 

[BengalsAndBucks]

I would just like to personally thank Illinois for embarassing not only themselves, but the entire Big Ten on national television. Playing like you have never seen a football before is bad enough. Flat out giving up is just embarassing.

Worst Playcalling Ever.

 

[GoBucks89]

Illinois is really starting to look like a Ron Zook coached team.

 

[Tonyank]

wow the Illini offense has looked like a bunch of unorganized preschoolers shitting all over themselves

Dirty Sanchez is playing now right?

 

[buckeyebri]

Wow, McGee now.....way to wait......
