By the way, Ohio State gave up 3 turnovers to Minnesota today and still won 44-0, you think 1 more turnover and a punt return would have made them lose? I dont, duma$$!

The ONLY reason Oregon State won today is because they had MORE POINTS at the end of the game. Sheesh, even John Madden knew that!
Dude, we get it, thats why SC lost.
Do us a favor and lead us with a disclaimer if thats all your next post is gonna be about.
I respect you Tulah, unlike Scotts biased worthless opinion, so I will ask what on earth did SC show you today or the past 5 weeks that makes you think they run the table? I thought they would get by Ore st easily I mean their two star wideouts are finally healthy and that still doesnt matter. Yeah if they dont give those TO up they PROBABLY dont lose to OSU. But None of those teams are OSU and they dont need ANY TOs to beat SC.
USC played like shit today & still could have won the game. They are doing this in a year that most teams would be really down. I'm sorry but this team has to be the favorite next year to win it all.
:nono: :nono: :nono:
USC gave up 4 turnovers + punt return for TD on road.
OHIO ST. THIS YEAR played Penn St. @HOME, and had 2 turnovers and it was 14-6 ball game late 4th. Add 2 more OSU turnovers and Penn St. punt return and take away 2 of PSU's 3 turnovers and OSU LOSES THAT BALL GAME @OSU!
OHIO ST. THIS YEAR played @IOWA and won by 21pts. But Iowa had 4 turnovers. Switch that up, and make OSU have 4 turnovers, Iowa 1 turnover, and give Iowa punt return TD, and I doubt OSU wins @IOWA.
MICHIGAN THIS YEAR played @ PENN ST. and won 17-10. PSU only had 1 turnover and zero turnovers from Michigan. If Michigan had 4 turnovers AND gave up punt return, you think Michigan wins that game? :mj07:
MICHIGAN THIS YEAR played Iowa @MICHIGAN and won by 13pts. Each team had 1 turnover. If Michigan had 4turnovers and gave up punt return you think they win the game? :mj07:
TODAY MICHIGAN played Northwestern @MICHIGAN and won by only 14pts despite 5 NORTHWESTERN turnovers! Michigan was +3 turnover ratio and only won by 14pts @home. :shrug:
What about the year Ohio St. won the BCS National Championship. Every week they were winning by less than 7pts. You think if they had 4 turnovers and gave up special teams TD they would went undefeated? :nono: OSU that year had close games against $HIT TEAMS! Cincy?
Ohio St. and Michigan would likely lose if they had 4 turnovers and given up special teams TD @Oregon St. I know Michigan would lose, OSU might be able to battle back like USC and maybe win it outright.

please stop. you are destroying your credibility. usc will be fine. and it wouldnt surprise me to see them run the table. sometimes a loss, paradoxially, is a good thing, even for a young team. but this was brewing for awhile. they dodged some bullets the last few weeks. they have the potential to be a great team, and probably soon. but enough with the spin.
oregon state beat them straight up
.. and the beavs didnt even have their best player in the lineup

6-6-7- and minus 2 their last four games, two at home ...
their D has given up 22/20/21/33 in last four ...
why again is this a team deserving of any championship talk ... yes its hard not to see the years past in this year's edition but now the balloon has burst and USC exposed in the polls and pub's eye that they are just another decent team chasing the elite ...
its OK, there's always the next year cliche to fall back on, prob is they dont have CFB HOFs like their halcyon bubble and running the table, even after huge fold vs TX, isnt anythng you can ever count on... getting to that finale is an incredible accomplishment and i doubt USC will get there again for a while

I don't need credibility because I always explain my opinion.
2nd, USC lost because of turnovers. Half turnovers were not even forced by OSU. I would have my best player sit out if I knew I would get +4 turnover ratio. (if the offer was on table)BTW, it might have been blessing not to have their best RB because I think he has fumble problem. OSU offense didn't turn it over today and that won them the game!
I think Scott has a point in saying the Beavers won because of the turnovers. USC did move the ball pretty well on Oregon St all day. If they didn't turn it over so many times, I doubt Oregon St is even in the game.
Listen real quick to a stat dumba$$, Ohio State 9-0, Michigan 9-0, USC 6-1. The point is, USC LOST to a MEDIOCRE Oregon State team, they DIDNT come back, It wasnt really close. 20 point lead int the 3rd quarter? c'mon! USC got BEAT and soundly by a mid PAC-10 conference team. Face it Scotty Boy, USC is OVERRATED this year and it is finally starting to show!!
Didn't you say they were going to give their BEST to Oregon, CAL, and Notre Lame?? Maybe they should have started early with the Beavers?
Just give in, say your favorite team is overrated, and people will quit picking on you for the year!
C'mon Scotty Boy, the trojans have made their surge and now they are on their way out. Its ok, your boys had a good run! 1 natoinal championship is a great thing!
I congratulate them and I hope my favorite team, the wolverines can do it this year!
Just put on your pajamas, light a candle, and say a prayer for next year. Just remember, they still might be the second best team in the Pitiful Athletic Conference!

Is Pete Carroll leaving USC?
USC returns EVERYBODY next year. I like USC's chances to get to the BCS NC game next season.
have a good night guys. i dont mind a good debate. but this is nuts. enjoy the late night games.

USC is 6-1 playing one of the toughest schedules in the country. USC is NOT over-rated. USC did themselves in today with turnovers and in CFB you rarely get 2nd chances. Good luck to OSU and Michigan and hopefullly your team (michigan) doesn't have a game like USC today.
If USC lost to Oregen St. without 4 turnovers and giving up special teams TD, I would call USC over-rated.
USC opened their offense when they got down and looked how USC moved the ball. This is what USC has been doing at practices. Unfortunately USC did themselves in with 4 turnovers. You can't win playing that sloppy on road.
1 BCS NC is a great thing and 2 AP National Championships is great thing too! USC isn't going anywhere and will be odds on favorites to win it all next year. At USC, you still compete for BCS NC's in rebuilding years!!

Blue, Smith was OB, beavs were far superior and missed chances for at least 2 more majors let alone missed 2 fgs and handed usc a TD on dropped punt--but those things arent mentioned by irrational people; you are arguing with a fire hydrant, trust me
You took my statement out of context. :nono:
I said if USC was given the option of sitting out their best player and getting +4 turnovers, USC would take it. Thats what happened today. OSU was without their best player, but USC negated that with sloppy play. Right?
Or did both teams play sloppy and OSU came out on top? Maybe thats what you saw?
OSU starting RB is turnover prone. What if he played and fumbled like he usually does? Does OSU win? You can't turn the ball over against USC and win.

I really wouldnt know, Michigan hasnt been behind this year, except for a couple of minutes early against Wisconsin. And no other game has really even been close. i dont know what would happen if they were a Mid -level competitor and turned the ball over 4 times AND gave up a special teams TD to a mid-level Pac-10 team.
I guess you are right they might lose
BUT I dont think I will have to find out this year!
Penn State was the wolverines closest game and it was only because of a gimme TD at the end that made it that close. No team has come xlose to scaring the wolverines.
Get it through your skull, USC is out, it will either be Ohio State or Michigan in the BCS NC game, and someone beside USC, sorry!
