Go USC!!! Official National Championship Thread.
Watch Reggie Bush, RB, USC. My son blocked for him at Helix HS, La Mesa CA.
He is/was the best running back I have ever seen, HS, college, pro. A 4.0 student too. He was absolutely unstoppable in HS. It was like it wasnt fair when he took the ball.

When OU trounces them. And it's two hours earlier here than on the coast, so I'll know how it came out long before you.

It's late third quarter now: OU 45 USC 4

34. Ah, THIS is why the BCS screws the Pac 10 year after year
Sure makes for a boring game when the overlooked team from the west wallops the living piss out of some overrated "powerhouse" from the east.

{Yawn} Another USC interception. Someday the rest of the country will learn this forward pass gadget.

What an elitist bunch they are! What a hot bed of media attention. California is SOO over looked by the media. Especially Los Angles, I mean trying getting a good story on Kobe and Shaq last year. Nigh on impossible I tell you.

38. Well, Oklahoma looks pretty "east" from here
But all I've heard for the last three weeks on such outlets as ESPN is a bunch of whining about how USC doesn't really deserve to be in the championship game, and how Auburn got screwed, and how Oklahoma is the best team this year, and how the only real championship game would be Oklahoma-Auburn.

28-7 USC, more than 9 minutes to go in the first half. The case for the West has been presented.

I haven't been following the national championship the way I usually do. I didn't realize everyone thought that Auburn got screwed at USC's expense. In that case, good! Go USC! The BSC is stupid!

41. I'm mostly interested in seeing a true playoff
I mean, in basketball, who would have picked Jim Valvano's NC State team to beat Phi Slamma Jamma from Houston, or Villanova to take Georgetown, just to name a couple of surprise champions. In football, trying to figure out the two "best" teams is just such a fool's errand. And I think football with fewer games and less intersectional mixing it up than basketball really doesn't yield a consensus on who's the best.

I thought Auburn had a good squad, but I wasn't impressed with the showing against Virginia Tech. Maybe they would have looked sharper without a month off between their last game and the bowl. Texas and Michigan put on a whale of a game; is that a fitting end to Texas' season, or should they have had a chance to move on and play a semifinal game?

I think a 16-team playoff, a maximum four additional games, is eminently doable.

Hope USC repeats another 38 points in the second half. Jason White always, I mean always chokes in big games. I predict he'll get hurt in the second half.

Still can't figure how Texas got lucky in the Rose Bowl.

69. Leinart and all of USC was VERY impressive-poor #23 for OU
Edited on Wed Jan-05-05 08:58 AM by underpants
They picked on him all game and he had a HORRIBLE game. As you watch the highlights see how many times you see #23 in white near the play but not making it.

The 35 yeard run by Bush-#23 was there but ran past the hole (left side)

The TE's spectacular catch (GREAT throw by Leinart too)-#23 was "covering"

The BOMB to #9-#23 failed to cover. That was in interesting sequence-OU's #44 went down with a bad left shoulder and they called timeout (official timeout) coming back from commercial USC converted on 3rd down and #24 knocked #9 out of bounds #24 looked to be holding his right shoulder but OU didn't call time. #24 half assed the blitz and #23 was no where near #9 TD!!!

The throw under the uprights-#23 was "covering" that too.

Great game by USC. The BONEHEADED play on the punt and Jason White's :wtf: throw didn't help (did he yell "punt" before he threw it?)

Congrats USC you were MAHVELOUS!!!!
