The more I have thought about Reggie Bush lateraling the ball the more I am wondering if I dont have a reason that makes sense to me.

I am thinking that Reggie was running down the field gaining good yardage. Out of the corner of his eye he sees this teammate running close to him. But Reggie notices the teammate is not blocking anyone. So in a moment of irrational thoughts he decides to lateral the football to the guy so he can feel what its like to get crushed.

It makes sense to me anyway. I watched the replay closely and still couldnt pick up the guys number who was running beside him. I do not think it was a top flite player, but not sure.

Matt Lienart may be too much of a pretty boy to hang in tough in the NFL. When Matt took that crushing tackle to the helmet it really changed his play. He may have had a concussion at that point, but I think it made him change his winning attitude of do whatever it takes.

I see him dropping in the draft. maybe between 5-10

In the NFL take no hostages, I dont think Leinart will fit in when he is roomates with Nick Lachey and party party all the time.

Maybe I am wrong but thats just my take.

White will be the best NFL player out of the group. He is tough and alot of teams need that kind of determination.

Reggie still has to go #1 though. Hard not to take him.

Whoever is advising Vince Young told him the right thing.

Young does not come from money like Lienhart and cant afford not to take the millions offered to him now. It would be hard to top what he did in that NC game.

I do not think Young will be the best QB in the NFL for maybe 3-4 years. NFL is differant. He sure did make USC defense look like
he was running through a pop warner team.

All that talk from Scott4USC about how he would be stopped was just a bunch of baloney. Pages and pages of whys. And then
Boom......

On the last touchdown scored by Young, USC players just stood and watched. How does that happen ?

USC defense reminded me of Bowling pins .

A guy with a concusion threw 73% for 365 yards against the National Champs? I would think that would raise most people's stock.

Isn't a thread titled "USC - Final Word" an oxymoron? :mj07: Highly improbable this thread has an ending. Could possibly go on til next season unless something goes awry and it ends up in the dumpster. Too many pitbulls on opposing sides to let the other have the last say ;) :chairshot :banghead: :scared :nutkick :box2: :argue: :soapbox:

lmao ....

Yeh I am waiting for Scott4USC to show up but I think he is too embarressed by his teams play to try to get the last word and substantiate USC s loss with facts to back up why they lost.

I may be wrong though.

I am saving my best for last.

I really do respect the guy. But remember he will be going to a team that will not have Bush or White or receivers, or a offensive line to protect him. Very hard for him if he has to step in and start.

Arm strength big concern. Not sure if the short passes will make it over the long haul.

USC is the better team though. Leinart said so himself.

Leinart did ok winning Heisman 2 years ago with a brand new OL, new WR's, new FB, and 2nd string TE. Bush and White were sophomores starting 1st time. Jarret was only freshman who dropped the ball a lot 1h of season. 1st year starter WR Smith got hurt and missed half the season. USC did not have depth at offense that they do now. Leinart battled through it and most prob. didn't take notice. IMO that is a major reason (outside of his #'s) that he deserved the Heisman that year. Even if Bush was the best player in the country, Leinart had the #'s and team leadership that nobody could match.

When USC lost WR's WIlliams and Colbert to NFL, and getting new OL people thought Leinart would be exposed. People doubted him.

Now Leinart being doubted again? I think my money is on Leinart proving people wrong AGAIN. The guy is a winner and hard worker. He was a NOBODY at USC when Palmer was QB. Leinart barely won the starting job 3 years ago. Look how far he has progressed. Most importantly, look at his #'s and results in 3 straight BCS games.

First of all, it was a BONEHEAD move by Bush that played a major reason why USC isn't the 2005 National Champs. No excuses.

Bush said he used to pitch the ball like that in High School all the time and it worked. He has never done it in his 3 year career at USC. So at the moment in time, he saw the USC dude open and instinstiively pitched the ball becuase he was trying to help the team score a TD. Can't get all too upset but those are things you can't do AND expect to win the NC.

The guy he tried to pitch it too, I DIDN'T even know who he was. I think he is a WALK ON FB. USC starting FB got hurt on that big catch and so Hancock and this walkon Walker. On top of Bush pitch being stupid, he tried to pitch it to a freaking walk on player. :mj07:

You might be right. Scary thing is White has not reached his potential. He is LAZY and gets by with talent. He is just physically gifted. Bush works his a$$ off in off-season and is in best shape possible. Not White.

White has baby fat and could get himself bigger, stronger and faster. Too bad he doesn't have same work ethic as Bush. IMO that is why White should stay at USC and do all that, make a run at the Heisman along with NC, and be a guaranteed top 5 pick. White and Peterson as the #1 and #2 RB's and right now I give Peterson the edge. This years drafte Bush is #1, maybe guy from Memphis #2, White battles Maroney for #3. White "could" possibly be the #4 RB taken which will cost him MILLIONS of $$$ if he declares for NFL draft. USC returns almost everybody on their OL (which is awesome) and offense would be great. White is practically guaranteed to rush for over 2000 yards if he stays and doesn't get hurt.

One NC in 3 years isnt bad LSU has done the same!! BCS Crystal Football is given to Ncaa Champs nowadays. How many does USC have?? ONE!! You can take 75% of the QB's in the nation and put them in the Pac-10 conference and there numbers would sky rocket. I could go on and on but deep down you know the truth!! Truth hurts!!

It is very simple. The AP NEVER said or agreed to crown the BCS NC game winner champs. (you might think so but they never did) AP only allowed their poll to be used in the BCS formula. AP never wanted the BCS to tell them what to do. When the AP finally disagreed with the BCS, people assume it is a controversy etc. It isn't. It just so happened that was the first year AP disagreed with the BCS. BCS is designed to get the 2 best teams to play each other. Hell, the coaches poll didn't think LSU was the best team either. They were FORCED to vote LSU #1. LSU should thank the BCS otherwise they would have won nothing. Like it or not, those are the facts. That is why the AP pulled out of the BCS because people could not understand this yet it is very simple. Throughout college history, we had the coaches poll crown NC, and the AP poll crown a NC. Many times we had split NC's which we had in 2003. BCS tried to use both the AP and Coaches poll in their formula but AP always said they will crown their OWN National Champion. Coaches poll is FORCED to vote the winner of the BCS NC game National Champs. AP isn't forced to do anything and last year completely pulled out of the BCS formula because it did them more harm to be associated with it. You people are the reason. You can't understand or accept it. :mj07:

IMO the BCS should use both the AP, Coaches and computer polls. But then let the Coaches and AP poll vote their own National Champions. AP has it right. Coaches poll is forced. I have more respect for the AP which doesn't let ANYBODY tell them what to do. (don't interpret that thinking the AP is better than Coaches poll, I just respect the AP more)
