Cal vs USC

[Beaverfuzz]

Your thoughts tlong?


USC 28, Cal 24


And Oregon State becomes bowl eligible against the Tree...how bad must UW suck to lose to Stanford?

[Brutalis]

I'm praying for Cal. I think for them and Arkansas, they need the damn win.

Go.. Bears? Gay.

[johngateswhiteley]

USC is starting to get healthy...and you don't need to ask Brutalis what a healthy USC team can do.

USC 31
Cal 24

A month ago, I would have said Cal not only had a chance to beat USC, but would do so convincingly. After that Arizona game, I'm not so sure anymore. They should have won that game with ease, but ended up losing. Looking at their schedule thus far, they seem to be ultra-tough at home, but not as good on the road (a little like Lousiville in that regard) - and even their last two home games vs. Washington and UCLA didn't impress me a whole lot. USC was struggling a few weeks ago by beating less-powerful foes in the last min ot two by <7 pts. They *seem* to have gotten back on track, but we'll find out for sure against Cal.

i can tell you that the place is going to be nuts. the crowd was huge last saturday... and i haven't heard the place quite as loud as it was against cal in 2004, even from the beginning. i want cal to start right by the thundering herd. i lost my voice last weekend, and i'm ready to do it again.

:elephant man, i wish i could go to the game. if SC makes the title game i am definitely going to go. not only lose your voice, but do so for me as well. i'll be there in spirit.

...just got my hi def set up today here in Montana for the game!

[KewlKat00]

no doubt the 9 of us will yell enough for you too... and the crazy old lady next to me will also definitely lose her voice for you (that's what happens after she has her schnapps).

:lol sweet & thanx!

[johngateswhiteley]

time for the marquee game of the day! this one is HUGE!

[johngateswhiteley]

...booty just insists on keeping the USC offense under wraps. come on John!

[johngateswhiteley]

ahhhhhhhhhhh! booty! you are KILLING ME!

[LaMarcus Bryant]

JGW, can you honestly say USC has improved enough to be a national champion this season? I know you've had injuries, but your team as a whole, has it improved?

[johngateswhiteley]

no. and its not that they have not improved, its that they have regressed. when their offense is on, they are unstoppable. otherwise they just look like a top 20 team.

so no. but they have the ability to be there with ohio state, they just aren't doing it...especially right now.

[johngateswhiteley]

...also, i like the play calling in this game. booty just can't get it to the receivers.

[johngateswhiteley]

TD! right after i said Booty could not get it to his receivers he makes 3 nice throws on the drive. good job John, keep it up.

[johngateswhiteley]

huge stop! gotta score here.

[johngateswhiteley]

TD!!! ha ha, yes! now we are doing something. gotta stop Cal here and see if we can score again.

[Brutalis]

come the fuck on cal. for arkansas!

[johngateswhiteley]

come the fuck on cal. for arkansas!

its probably over. USC's defense was OUTSTANDING today. their offense was OK.

this will definitely put them in the 2 spot, if they hang on.

[Brutalis]

Cal is overrated dude. Slammed by the Vols.. then some weak team.. give me a break. They stood no chance to begin with but I did pray for them to win... I really did.

you should never speak again. your statement is sooo ironic...you look like a dumb ass.

1. USC beat ARK by 36 points
2. UT beat Cal by 17

...and yet its OK by you for ARK to get better during the season and not Cal? your a joke, your analysis is a joke, and the razorbacks will always be in the shadow of Troy.

[Brutalis]

You are for sure a USC fan. Arrogant, pointless and repeatitive.

1. USC beat an Arkansas team that wasn't close to full strength.
2. Arkansas beat UT by .. 17.
3. Try harder.

[Beaverfuzz]

Great game Trojans, hope you guys jump Michigan and knock the crap out of the Domers next week.


Your friend from Corvallis. :)

...there is no point to debate you, there is nothing you said here that makes your statement look any less assanine. this isn't about Arkansas and USC or even Arkansas vs. Cal, we already beat the shit out of your team. its about your stupid statement. your logic above is...non-existent.

[Brutalis]

Like I said try harder. Especially if you don't understand to begin with.

Stood no chance against USC to clarify. They're fine against decent teams but when they have played big time programs they get toasted. It's facts, BRAH.

yes, they struggle in big games. but that has nothing to do with your previous statement. let me spell it out for you:

by your logic Arkansas is overrated too. you mentioned that Cal lost their opener...*newsflash* so did Arkansas. this has nothing to do with how good Cal really is, thats a different debate. you were dismissing Cal b/c of an early loss and late stumble against a hot team that beat Oregon today.

1. you know nothing about the Pac-10
2. you know nothing about CFB

...unless you retract that statement. Cal is a fine team and has given USC plenty of trouble the last decade. you beat Miss state by 2 TDs today...whoopty do.

[Beaverfuzz]

Damn, I am dissapointed. My best friend is on Cal's team and some other guys I know. They were pretty much fucked after losing to the Vols though. Marshawn is gonna be a beast in the NFL though.



No, they were screwed after losing to Arizona.

[KewlKat00]

defensively: yes, offensively: no. and that is what's frustrating.

[johngateswhiteley]

defensively: yes, offensively: no. and that is what's frustrating.

exactly what i think and have said. the thing is that sometimes Booty is on and the offense is good enough, but other times he is just not clicking. the running game is fine, imo, its all about whether or not Booty has his timing down.
