That stupid TV director cant figure out which camera to use. Getting dizzy from all these ridiculous angles.

21-7 SC. Being a Cal alum, it's hard to root for SC but it's a pac-10 team and a west coast team. so what the hell.

Avail · 01-04-2005, 06:30 PM

Haha, I know what you're talking about. I really don't like it when ABC hosts football games, especially NCAA. Their announcers are ridiculous and boring at that.

Harry Cox · 01-04-2005, 06:57 PM

Damn, 0U is taking an ass kicking. Tommy Tuberville might as well stop campaigning for votes now. Anyone that doesn't vote USC #1 is an idiot.

LIMilf · 01-04-2005, 08:45 PM

And just think, the line changed to OU -1 today. Wish I would of placed some money on this game! 48-10, what a rout.

Cycler · 01-04-2005, 08:57 PM

Here is your ass ou, USC just up and handed it to you. Ouch.

Justsomeguy · 01-04-2005, 09:12 PM

Laff at Oklahoma! Guess who failed again? Our lovely BCS system! Oklahoma should have NEVER been in this game. Thats obvious at this point. Down with the BCS!

Why are they an idiot? Auburn is still 13-0. All this game proved to me is that there were probably 2 opponents for USC that would have been a much better choice than Oklahoma. Oklahoma embarrassed again. Why can't their be a rule to prevent them from being in another national championship game?

I'd vote for that rule.

trickyy · 01-04-2005, 10:26 PM

yeah those camera angles were quite the experience.

usc already beat the other two teams, although auburn did improve since they last played (but the sec was weaker than normal).

i was surprised at the game; i thought usc was better last year. and i was a bit worried after the first score. but did anyone at espn predict this correctly? that college gameday crowd was a bit misguided...usc losing in a lopsided contest?

Met22 · 01-04-2005, 10:39 PM

SC never a doubt. Love the return glory.

It will be a long time before OU will see a title game again.

No, they had their lips on OU's cock all season long. (EDIT: except for Lee Corso, the wiley old football coach managed to see through all the hype).

It's pretty sweet considering just how wrong they were, and that I myself picked USC.

Imagine if they had Mike Williams... Leinart would have thrown maybe 2 more TDs.

not to mention the loss of Whitney Lewis, Winston Justice and Kenechi Udeze. if all those guys didn't declare for the draft or get suspended/ruled ineligible, USC would have won by an even larger margin (which is absolutely absurd to even imagine).

oh, and Spartak...you have the best avatar ever. ever.

Fight On

yeah, then postgame the analysts made quite the shift. now oklahoma didn't even deserve to be playing in the game (nevermind that blowout we foresaw) and we sure wish that those mean presidents would let usc and auburn play each other. i'm sorry, but the situation is much different from last year. vt almost won that game. i doubt auburn would beat usc.

but a tourney would be an improvement anyway. now there is talk of a selection committee since the ap removed their poll. sounds like another dumb idea from the leaders of our higher education system.

Thats why I never pay much attention to people on TV. They'll hang from one teams nuts, and as soon as they lose, they'll talk down on them like they shouldn't be playing the game. I'm a huge Auburn fan, and I'm not sure if Auburn could of beat USC, but I'm positive it would of been a much better game than that. Oklahomas secondary is terrible...

Spartak · 01-05-2005, 11:32 AM

I don't see why there should not be a playoff system.

After all basketball and lower-division football already has them in place, why does the premier college sport have to deal with this controversy and frankly bullshit year in and year out ?

And I don't see why NCAA is so against this, the TV revenue generated by the playoffs would be astonishing.

Auburn wouldn't have given up 55 points. VT did not almost win that game to be honest. They were bringing it close at the end. However, Auburn outplayed them the entire game. A few lucky breaks and strong defensive moves really kept VT from getting blown out. USC really struggled against VT as well if you remember. And VT has really improved since then.

You're right, the situation is different from last year. It's worse. Two teams finished undefeated that were not given a shot at the championship. Last year, the BCS gave us a good game. It may have picked the correct teams. This year, it obviously picked the wrong team(OU).

the revenue generated by companies putting their name on a bowl is astonishing^2. The money they get from the fedex orange bowl, nokia sugar bowl, tostitos fiesta bowl....and all the minor ones too...is rediculous. If they do a playoff system, which i think they should, they would have to keep the names. they would just all the early games the peach bowl, cotton bowl etc, and have the big bowls rotate which are the finals, and which is the championship...it could work

trickyy · 01-05-2005, 07:48 PM

3 teams finished undefeated, don't forget utah.

auburn was definitely in control of the game, but vt managed to make the score close (and failed to convert on a few deep possessions).

usc struggled against teams weaker than vt. this is why i thought the game would be closer. vt and auburn have both improved since they lost to usc, but i still don't think either would beat usc. no way to prove this, just my feeling.

and i don't think a small championship tourney would prevent me from watching the jiffy lube bowl, as long as the teams are evenly matched.
