(unofficial) Rose Bowl thread - USC vs. Texas (merged)

[NFBuck]

Well all, looks like we get a crack at the defending champs next September. And I dunno about the rest of you, but after tonight I would say VY is as good as gone....soooo I like our chances even more now.

Congrats Hornfans....see you in September!

My prediction for the final post-bowl AP poll:

1. USC
2. ND
3. Penn State
4. 85 Bears
5. Texas
6. Ohio State

well done man.

 

[RMosack]

Oh yeah, will someone please hit Dan Fouts in the mouth for me.

I'll do my best not to bash...

But come on. Has Fouts' dumb comments been any more annoying than Herbie's ridiculous love for SC? So much for the greatest of all time. Of all the ESPiN doofuses, we expect a little more out of an OSU boy.

If VY does not go he is making a mistake. If he does stay, Mack Brown owes him one gazillion dollars.

My prediction for the final post-bowl AP poll:

1. USC
2. ND
3. Penn State
4. 85 Bears
5. Texas
6. Ohio State

Um, not to be too picky, but ND always appears twice in the top 5.

Good call, but would we be ranked ahead of scUM?

nice one....or maybe:

1A-USC
1B-Notre Dame
8-75 Steelers
everyone else doesn't deserve to be on the same page

All wrong...


1. '03 USC
2. '04 USC
3. '05 USC
4. Texas
5. Penn St.
5a. Notre Dame

 

[Bucklion]

All wrong...
1. '03 USC
2. '04 USC
3. '05 USC
4. Texas
5. Penn St.

or perhaps:

1-2005 USC
2-1986 Miami
3-2002 Miami
4-2002 USC
5-1992 Miami
6-2005 Texas

People are forgetting that obviously USC, with 2 losses, was the best team in 2002, and therefore they should already have 3 in a row.

 

[MondayAMGenius]

you still got abc on? who's the hotty with the f'd up aussy accent? Just show her face please?

 

[Muck]

All wrong...


1. '03 USC
2. '04 USC
3. '05 USC
4. Texas
5. Penn St.
5a. Notre Dame

You forget that the '02 Trojans were clearly better than the Patriots that year, so they should be at least #2.

Crap: Bucklion beat me to the punchline.

 

[ScarletBlood31]

You sound like a Cryami fan after the 02 game.

No, USC atleast had the points given to Texas that should not have been given. I'm not saying that Texas wouldn't have won, but it interferes with the integrity of the game, and a National Championship.


I don't know why you guys knock on Matt Leinart so bad. The guy has 2 national championships and a Heisman trophy. He should be in the NFL this year making millions. And throughout most of it, he has acted with mostly class. You guys act like he's Marcus Vick.







I have no idea why, but I have a deep gut feeling that makes me want to hate Texas almost as much as scUM. Maybe its because everyone loves Texas (atleast around here), yet they whine about not getting respect. Maybe its because I had a whole off-season of preparing for our game against Texas and getting my hate-o-meter on full blast. Maybe its Mack Brown. Maybe its the gay "hook 'em" thing. I don't know. Vince Young is an awesome player, but i just can not stand Texas. Period.

No chance, man.. 02 USC is clearly better than 1986 Miami. And, I'm not sure 05 Texas is as good as 05 ND...

I'd also say that any top 6 without Michigan is laughable. :p

 

[ScarletBlood31]

Man I would kill for another shot at Texas. Our offense is just as good as anyone else's in the country, and our defense is a hell of a lot better than USC's, which is what it came down to in the end. AJ Hawk or any of those buckeye defenders would not let Young slip around through tackles all night.

We get it in September. Let it go.
