Agreed. Why is this guy so adverse to taking free points?

Somehow, we've allowed a very average USC team to turn this into a game.

He got back the two failed 2 point conversation attempts.

Totally ridiculous call

Bo - 5/7. 184 yards. 3 TDs. With 11 minutes left... in the 2ND QUARTER. Ummm... okay. Sure. Why not.

Bo 2/3. 161 yards. 2 TDs. Okay now.

Why in the world woud Lanning opt for a squib kick and not just kick it out of the back of the end zone?

Williams sacked twice in the first 9 minutes. USC gives up an average of 2.5 sacks per game. He will enjoy many more than that tonight.

Bo is beyond focused and totally under control.

Bo to his Bro for a 77 yard TD. Unbelievable. You cannot make a story like this up. I don't even know how these two guys ended up at Oregon... and to see what's going on for them, and the team, is like an old Disney movie classic.

UW likes the dirty play trash. They did the same kind of cheap shot to Bo last year.

Need the Huskies to beat Utah in a very close game. And yes, as I typed the above, I just threw up a little bit in my mouth.

Second Miami possession of the second half, and naturally it's three run plays gaining a total of four yards, and then a punt from their own 23 yard line. How could anyone not luv Mario-ball!

Mario starts the 2nd half with two running plays that go nowhere. So, with 13 minutes left in the left in the 3rd Q, what does Mario call next? A time out... of course. Followed by another run that goes nowhere. Their kicker did, however, drill a 50+ yard FG to lead 13-10. But, as we all know, Mario will blow it.

Yep... it's college football. And while I fully expect Oregon to run all over these guys, as we all know, anything can happen. We need to jump on them hard early and often and not look back.

With each additional fun comment that I've been making about the USC situation, I've had a little voice in the back of my head that has been getting a little louder with each comment, reminding me of the exact same thing. Everything is pointing to USC getting run over and dying tonight. However, when you have that many 4 and 5 star studs on one roster, all they need to do is to put it together for one game, for about 3.5 hours... and look out Martha. Still, if Oregon plays like they did against Utah or Colorado, regardless of who shows up for USC, we win this game.

I just saw your comment. I envisioned the same kind of thing.

I can't believe you pulled out the most-excellent & stellar "Unfrozen Cave-Man" reference. IMHO, I'm not sure there could be a better reference for this situation than this Phil Hartman classic. "Your world frightens and confuses me." At times these days, I'm definitely feeling UCM's pain

Right behind the USC bench on the 50 yard line -- for quick & easy access... I see a Trojan MSPUCT ("Mommy/Son Pop-Up Comfort Tent"). Complete with soft pillows, wireless Bose headsets streaming great lullaby tunes, and of course, a well trained snuggly comfort service dog).

Go Penn State! As I'm sure many of you saw, they had the ball late in the 1st quarter, 1st & goal from the UM 3 yard line. Bummer as they got stuffed and had to settle for 3.

So wish I could have joined you guys. I'm so impressed with some of the detailed X&O guys that we have around here... starting with you, Charles. I love the game and played it growing up, but I confess that I'm not remotely near as well versed in the X&O's and schemes of the game like so many of you guys are... so I'm always learning something new from many of you. Anyway, I'm really glad to hear what a good time you all had. Next time, I hope to join you.

I must confess that on occasion, I do troll. But I primary confine that to lake fishing. ^^^^^(yeah... I know that was totally lame-o)^^^^^

So wish I could join you all. Have a great time.

Now that you mention it, USC is reminding me a bit of Napoleon and his winter retreat from Russia... marking the beginning of the end.
