chamrocck Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 As I drive around here in So. Cal I have been listening to the local sports jocks...nothing surprising to me as I hear this all the time about USC being the greatest football team ever...I'll post other comments if things change...but here is the local mood... Most think USC will win convincingly by 2+ touchdowns. Saying USC should win by 20+ points as they need to make up some style points since there is a lot of talk about how LSU is playing...so there is talk that USC will not let up if they are ahead convincingly as they need to show a dominate victory against a quality opponent. Close first half but USC will pull away in second half. LB Cushing and RB Washington are coming back from injuries and should be ready. Opinion is Cally has been average for us so far and is not in the same league as Carroll. Some shots at Keller about his play (turnovers against Wake) as well as his headband thing (jocks trying to be funny but nothing out of line). Hope we come to play Saturday! Quote Link to comment
Washusker Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Can't really argue with any of that. This USC team hasn't won a championship, but they are LOADED. Quote Link to comment

I'm also from out here in So Cal. And you are right. The radio commentators are pretty clueless. They act as though USC is the greatest thing since toilet paper. They all seem to forget the `80's and `90's when USC played like the substance in the toilet paper. Quote Link to comment

HuskerT Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 I'm in L.A. also and have been hearing the same things. No one in the media here is giving us much of a chance. Most of the talk is about how SC has lost first place votes and how they are going to make a statement against us. I try not to listen, but I can't help it. Keller will be on the Jim Rome show tomorrow morning! Quote Link to comment

In fact, if you add in the last five years when they won a national title and were given one as a gift from the sports writers, that would be a span of 27 years with only one (that's right ONE) undefeated season.

FriscoTXHusker Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 If they are the greatest team ever why can't they go undefeated? I think there's only been one undefeated year even in recent history. If they're so loaded maybe they're coaching staff sucks cuz they can't seem to capitalize on all that talent. They definitely are not invincible. I hope the players are all sitting there thinking they're the greatest thing that ever happened and they could never be defeated. Oh wait, isn't that what happened to the ancient Trojans? Quote Link to comment

I also included that in that same span of 27 years, we have two more undefeated seasons and one more nat'l championship and played for three more than they did. GBR Quote Link to comment
xkbubo Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Let me know what kind of response they made- if any. I would love to hear what they had to say after reading that! Quote Link to comment
REDSTEEL Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Face it we were probably just as arrogant in the 90's as they are today. To bad Tom promissed his wife to retire otherwise we probably have 1 more NC and Tom would passing Joe Pa and Bobby Bowden in most victories. What funny is that the best coach in the stadium probably will be watching it from a skybox. Quote Link to comment
DaveH Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 While I would agree they think they are king sh#t. However, I won't be surprised if NU loses by 2 TD's if they lay an egg. Quote Link to comment
