    This is of course one of the great travesties of our time. They are treated SOOOOOO unfairly...(unless you want to bring up that little issue of all the extra benefits Reggie Bush and Matt Leinart got that have pretty much been swept under the table by the NCAA). Other than that, the bias against USC is way too evident. Pelosi needs to get Obama to do something about it.

    USC plays in one of the weakest BCS conferences around, that's why they are not given "the love." There are four great team in the Big 12 south alone that could compete with, if not beat, USC. There are probably 4-5 SEC teams that could give USC a game and I believe Florida would own them. You can't say 2 teams from the PAC10 are worth a damn this year (or really any other year), and about 8 of them are just GOD AWFUL, especially the two in Washington. Why give love to a team that doesn't play but one "real" game all year (Ohio State - see most overrated) and still manages to lose a game along the way?

    Add that to the fact they lost to a crappy team and you can see why they don't get much love.

    Leinhart and Bush are some of the most overhyped and overrated players and personalities or our time as well, so maybe tremors from that are still hurting USC.

    Did I mention Matt Leinhart is the biggest bust since Ryan Leaf.



    Wait, did Leaf also play in the PAC-10?

    I think USC is ranked about where they deserve to be. Their defense is incredible but their offense has yet to really find itself - they're very inconsistent.

    I heard an LA reporter that follows the team say that, after Norm Chow left (offensive coordinator who created the offense that was so dominant for years), the guys that replaced him - Lane Kiffen & now Steve Sarkisian - were given the keys to a Ferrari & they've never been able to get it out of first gear.

    I agree. I think USC needs to make some offensive coaching changes - stealing Chow back from UCLA would be a great place to start - but that aint gonna happen.

    3? That's hilarious. The PAC10 doesn't even deserve their automatic BCS bid this year. The Mountain West owned the PAC10 this year. They're the ones who should be complaining. USC will get to beat up on OhioState/PennState in the Rose Bowl and be lucky to be there. If USC played a decent team from the Big12 or SEC they would be exposed for the frauds they are.

    They already did a few years back. Beat Arkansauce and Auburned. Also beat Oklahomo in the championship.

    That's what really matters, Carl. Do YOU want them to play football or mud wrestling?

    There's just something about the letters 'USC'. The one over here, is nicknamed the '****', and the one over there has 'TROJAN' for a mascot.
    I believe it's a conspiracy!!!
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    What do you mean? USC is ranked 24th this week. Oh, you must have been talking about that West coast imposter. The real USC is the University of South Carolina, established before California was even a state.;)
