lol; if OSU played in the P10, they'd be in a BCS game, too.
Baylor could beat Oregon State.

Are you mixing college football with the briana banks prono you just watched?

how? they'd probably have 2 losses. SC would beat them, as would one of Oregon State, Oregon, Cal, or Arizona.
the pac-10 is down, but thats no reason to exaggerate.
Oklahoma State has exactly TWO losses this year...both on the road to the the second and third ranked teams in the country.
There is no evidence SC could beat them.
If SC played OSU's schedule, they'd have two losses as well, quite possibly a third (because they have a knack for losing to lesser teams at least once a season).
you obviously don't follow SC football. they own top 25 teams...they're problem isn't against good ranked teams. its in letting their guard down against non-ranked conference opponents. i doubt SC would have more than 1 loss in the big 12 this year, and they might even have run it.
i swear, everyone forgets...its only what have you done for me lately. that, and the hatred towards SC which clouds judgment.
Hatred towards SC doesn't even come close to the all-out suckfest SC enjoys every single season. Seriously, SC fans have nothing to complain about. They're overrated this year. They were overrated for a significant portion of last year. Before the Rose Bowl a couple years ago, ESPN ran a several parts series about whether the 2005 Trojans were the greatest football team ever--and then they lost to Texas. And don't forget the nonsense about USC "repeating" as national champions in 2003 and 2004.
I doubt they would have run the table, just like I am not convinced Tech can win in Norman this weekend. If they were in the North, then yes, I think they would be undefeated and their only challenge would be in the Big 12 le game. I do think that the level of talent in the Pac-10 distorts peoples view of how good USC is in some years like this one. To be fair though, SC has heard that before and still gone to a BCS bowl game and won it.
the level of talent in the Pac-10 is pretty high...i think the only conferences undeniably better are the Big 12 and SEC. the boys from California and the rest of the west coast can play.
aside from that, they haven't just 'gone to a BCS bowl game and won it.' they own every damn conference since Carroll has been there and won more BCS games than anyone. if you want to downplay SC...fine. but its amazing how short some of y'alls memories are. they are damn good, and this year isn't any different. imo, its a classic case of other teams' fans looking for any hole they can find...and when SC doesn't kill everyone, they aren't that good. thats just ridiculous. every ranked team they have played this year they have murdered. granted, it was only 3 teams.
i'll be the first to admit the Pac is a bit down this year, but that doesn't mean SC isn't a very good team. and again, their only loss is to a pretty darn good team on the road. unfortunately, i don't see any realistic way the Trojans can make it to the le game. so, i either want them to play penn state in the rose bowl or have oregon state win out and let SC up an SEC or big 12 team in another BCS bowl. should be fun either way.
JGW.......
Since Oregon State beat pusSC, would you somehow rationalize in that mind of yours that Oregon State could beat the likes of TECH, horns, Okie State, or even oklahoma?
I think we will see. I assume Ore St will lose to Zona this weekend and if uo beats OSU then OSU (the #4 or 5 B12 team depending on where you rank Mizzou) will play the #2 P10 team (Ore State) in the Holiday Bowl. Regardless of it is OSU or uo or Mizzou, one of them will play in the Holiday against the P10's 2nd best team.
SC is still a dangerous matchup because we don't really know how good they are due to their conference.
really? Pick a team in the Big XII South other than Baylor or A&M and I think they lose on the road.
USC lost to Oregon St which is the Big XII's equivalent of Nebraska or Kansas this year........what in the world makes you think you'd "run it" in the Big XII?
I don't think anyone here hates SC. They just hate your constant badgering for them to be #1 when they clearly aren't even top 5.i swear, everyone forgets...its only what have you done for me lately. that, and the hatred towards SC which clouds judgment.
See: BCS rankings, 11/20/08
You're not convinced Tech can this weekend? Wow.
I'm not sure anyone is convinced they will win........but I think even homer sooner fan thinks Tech can win it.
I think you are splitting hairs and I probably could have worded that a little better. What I meant was I think Norman is a very tough place to play and that Tech losing would not be shocking to me. However I do believe they have the talent to do so. I am just not 100% positive that they are going to do so.
I will, though, stick to my earlier prediction that I made on this board, if Tech wins in Norman, they will run the table.
i'm not badgering for them to be #1, they shouldn't be right now. << another example of you not paying attention
i can't believe you compared oregon state to nebraska and kansas.
Tech losing would not shock you? Last I checked, OU was favored and is 50-2 at home under Stoops.
Why is everyone around here acting as if Tech Fan is thinking this is a slam dunk win for the Raiders? I don't know anyone that is 100% positive of a Raider win. Even RR in Korea is gripping and that's saying something.
obviously you feel they are better than Tech, OU and UT combined since you feel they would run the table on them. If you're better than Tech numerically, that makes you #1.
good point.i can't believe you compared oregon state to nebraska and kansas.
seeing as how out of Kansas and Nebraska's nine combined losses, at least 7 were against ranked teams and maybe 6 were to top 10 teams.
One of Oregon St's 3 losses was to Stanford.
Frankly, I can't believe I compared them to Oregon St either.
agreed. This game makes me more nervous than the previous 2.
It will be a HUGE test for Tech. I hope they are able to pull it out & play the way they did against ok. st. If they play the way they did against ut, then it has the potential to get ugly.
I can't speak for everyone here but I never said you or any Tech fan was saying this was easy for TTU.
Because of Stoops home record and the fact that Norman is a tough place to is why a Tech loss would not shock me.
I also said Tech was perfectly capable of winning that game and winning the le.
Easy friend, relax and enjoy your schools success!

although, even with that daunting record for home games, Stoops' record against teams ranked in the top 15 is 4-8 and 2 of the 4 were against Mizzou.I can't speak for everyone here but I never said you or any Tech fan was saying this was easy for TTU.

The only thing I am fairly sure of is that it will be a of a game.
i agree. my stomach feels like its auditioning for the ringling brothers, and im just a fan.Good point.

very exciting game.
No, all you B-12 people have declared we suck this year, and are undeserving of a BCS spot. that being said, I hope we can play an SEC or B-12 team in BCs bowl.
I have declared you suck and by that I mean you are indeed undeserving of a BCS bowl. But this is mostly a result of your conference being even more feeble and useless than the big 10. If you don't play anyone, and lose to a total team, you don't deserve the BCS bid. But, realistically, since there are like 30 bcs bowls now, USC will get in. And, realistically, they still have uber talent. So realistically, we don't know how good USC can be with a month's preparation and with all that talent.
It's re ed to say USC sucks Aggg style, but legit to say they suck Ohio State style.
