Hugh_Hoy Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 Yep...if USC beats UCLA, should be a "no-brainer": OSU vs. USC for the national championship. Should be a dandy of a game. USC looked the best I've seen them all year on both sides of the ball. ND v. Michigan in the Rose Bowl? I fear for Boise State if they end up playing in a BCS game. All the "majors" still standing look pretty good to me. HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadaBing Posted November 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 ummmmmmm , 1st bottle on me , you seemed to mention about the winner throwing a " party ? " Comments please...... Bada Bing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
was_usvirgin Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 Congrats! One more to go. If they get there, I'm not sure I want to watch the final with my OSU buddy. He's generally a nice guy, but also a golden gloves champ, and he gets serious when OSU plays. I might want to find a different bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadaBing Posted November 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 I'm more than happy with the " Rose Bowl " cause I got a late EVA flight on Jan 01 to Bangkok , win or lose , i'm smiling all the way , and who can plan a better party than Pom Michael. Suadum : get your ass over there dude !! Bada Bing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frogpatrol Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 Commanding stuff yesterday by the Trojans. The Colliseum was abuzz, the ESPN gameday trio was there, and it was Senior Day. The defense was solidand our receiving core made ND look like high school students. Up next is the Bruins, and then most likely war against OSU. BTW, Pom Michael, I watched parts of the World Cup with TVU Player, and it is very uneven. Some games are perfect and others unwatchable. But better than nothing for the College Football hungry LOS residents. War, Pom Michael. War. And bada is on my side, so that surely is worth something?!

Neo Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 They've done it. BCS rankings: #1 OSU #2 USC ----------- #3 Michigan #4 Florida It seems destiny to the big game is squarely in USC's hands now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCgringo Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 I may be the only one that does not like the new set-up, Before the Rose Bowl was "The game" now its just another game like all the rest , especially if USC and Ohio state go to the "finals" if thats what you want to call it, So the Rose Bowl will be a couple second place teams I guess.... OC hoping the UCLA wins next week...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh_Hoy Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 So....IF UCLA beats Southern Cal, who would play the Trojans in the Rose Bowl. Wisconsin? Michigan would have a rematch with OSU in the BCS championship game. I still have to put my money on USC to win this Saturday against UCLA. I'll say this, USC hasn't faced a defense as tough as OSU has. OSU takes it to a higher level than most teams face. But I've seen some pretty high-powered explosive offenses the last couple of weeks, so anything can happen when you get two teams averaging 30-40 pts per game on offense. One thing no team at this level wants to do is get 10+ points behind...basically the death penalty. Very hard to play catch-up against teams that can put points on the board (as ND and Michigan found out). And don't forget the Sooners of 2005 when USC handed them their asses before they knew what was happening. USC just can't affort to look ahead when it plays UCLA this weekend. Fortunately or not, the Big 10/Pac 10 tradition is basically dead as far as the Rose Bowl is concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCgringo Posted November 27, 2006 Report Share Posted November 27, 2006 Fortunately or not, the Big 10/Pac 10 tradition is basically dead as far as the Rose Bowl is concerned. Yep , its a pity that the Rose Bowl is pretty much gone as far as making the national champ. UCLA only has a chance if USC is looking too far ahead and blows a few plays early that lead to UCLA scores..... OC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dali Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Fortunately or not, the Big 10/Pac 10 tradition is basically dead as far as the Rose Bowl is concerned. At least this OSU-USC matchup would be in a neutral locale (even though Arizona is Pac 10 country, the Fiesta Bowl has almost become a 2nd home for OSU the last few years so I'll call those offsetting factors). It never seemed right to me for USC or UCLA to be playing a Rose Bowl in their hometown (same same with Miami & Orange Bowl). The last time these two teams met in a bowl was the 1980 Rose Bowl with USC winning on a controversial touchdown. Always wondered if that game outcome would have been different if played in Columbus... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
