Trojans Down, Wildcats Up

Not a good week for the Trojans. With a chance to move up to a 4 or 5 seed, USC tanked both its games in the Apple State. The Huskies downed them easily on Thursday in Seattle, thanks to the long range bombing of Ryan Appleby. They kept it close in Pullman on Saturday, going to a pair...

We're a little late to the party on covering this, though we have been watching the tournament. Still can't believe UCLA lost to Cal(!) on Thursday, but evidently they needed a wakeup call. Ayinde Ubaka led the charge at the end of the fourth quarter and in overtime with 29...

Rough week for Arizona, losing to both USC and UCLA at home, after already losing both games they played in LA in January. Hell, it has been a rough 2007 for the Wildcats, who are only 6-8 since the calendar turned. This is a team that was as high as #7 before they began their tumble...

Man, I don't think it's possible to have two worse losses on the same day in the same city. First USC blows its season to the lowly Cardinal, then the Bruins go and give the Irish their first win, thanks in no small part to seven(!) turnovers. To make matters worse, both starting...

Florida State vs UCLA (-4)Can the Pac-10 finally win a freaking bowl game? I don't want to see the conference start out 0-3, but UCLA is just maddeningly average enough to leave San Francisco a loser. The Bruins are coming off quite a high note, but does that mean they can finish...

Texas A&M vs Cal (-3)I don't know how to say it more clearly, Cal must win this game! For the sake of the Pac-10, we cannot see the conference get shut out of the bowls. I realize that Tedford has come up short in almost every recent big game, but this is for more than just...

Missouri vs Oregon State (-3.5)Let's make it two in a row for the Pac-10! After seeing Cal destroy a Big 12 team yesterday, it'd only be right for OSU to drop another today. The Beavers have been on a pretty good streak, having won seven of their last eight games. The Tigers...

Well, with the Gators finally winning the long awaited national championship game, the football season comes to a close. USC ends the season #4, Cal at #14, and Oregon State at #21. Oregon and ASU were huge disappointments, OSU was a big surprise and USC and Cal finished just a little lower than ex

Florida Stage 44, UCLA 27Thanks, UCLA. Another day, another Pac-10 loser. We now stand at a tremendous 0-3 in the postseason, with three bad losses to three teams we should have beaten. Even though Chris Markey ran through the Seminole defense like Charlie Weis goes through a box of donuts, the we

Michigan vs USC (+1)This is it. The last bowl game for the Pac-10, and a disappointment for both teams to be playing in it. The Trojans had pipe dreams of playing Ohio State in the national championship game, until they remembered they had to score on the Bruins if they wanted to make it there. Th

Arizona State vs Hawaii (-7)This is Dirk Koetter's final game as the head coach at Arizona State. After an up and down season, the Sun Devils are hoping to give Koetter two big wins to end his ASU career. After surprisingly beating Arizona in Tucson, Koetter now has a chance to...

Everyone have a great start to '07. Enjoy all the bowl games, the Rose Bowl in particular. Best stat I think I have heard all year: USC hasn't allowed a TD play of more than 10 yards this season. Let's hope that continues today. Fight On!!!

What a great day for college football, probably for Boise State more than anyone else. I still can't believe they how they won the Fiesta Bowl. The hook and ladder to tie the game was one thing, but the Statue of Liberty to beat Oklahoma was simply amazing. I rewound the game about...

I was going to write something about the UCLA-Oregon game (How do they beat the #1 Bruins at home and lose to unranked USC at home?), but this story about Mario Danelo is more important. In the wake of the Denver Broncos losing Darrent Williams, tragedy now comes to the USC family. Danelo apparentl

Cal 45, Texas A&M 10Finally, a damn win for the Pac-10. After three sad showings from the Ducks, Sun Devils and Bruins, the Bears actually won a big game and showed the Big 12 what Pac-10 football is really about. Marshawn Lynch and Justin Forsett both ran for over 100 yards, Nate...

So not only is the Reggie Bush house donation saga still continuing, now he may be improperly talking to potential recruits, specifically one Joe McKnight. Thanks, Reggie. Even if the NCAA does hand down a punishment upon USC, it evidently won't be very severe. Add to that the...

I apologize for the lack of updates, life has been busy lately. Anyways, football came back into the fold for one day, and it was once again important for USC. They signed ESPN's #1, #2 and #3 players in RB Joe McKnight, LB Chris Galippo and RB Marc Tyler and came away with yet...

Oregon State 39, Missouri 38Man, did that decision by Riley take some serious stugats. Going for two with less than a minute left. Make it and you win, miss it and you lose. Kudos to Riley for taking that chance and actually calling a play that made it to the endzone. A great end to a great comeb
