I'm a sicko. I screamed like a little bitch when the UCLA dude made that incredible play on the interception, knowing that I possibly just screamed for an outcome that would lead to the ultimate demise of my beloved Tigers.

My name is Ed, and I am a sicko.

Fingers Point Towards Trojans' Kiffin

Dec 5th 2006
by Scott Olin Schmidt
USC Football, Pac 10, NCAA FB Coaching

For the first time since 2001, USC failed to score twenty points in a game in their loss to UCLA, and for the first time since Paul Hackett coached the Trojans, the team was held scoreless in the second half. Needless to say, there is alot of finger-pointing going on around Heritage Hall, and all fingers are pointing towards offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin. Heisman Pundit saw it coming:

As I predicted, UCLA notched the upset. But why? The answer is quite simple. The Trojans no longer have a legitimate offensive coordinator to direct and develop the considerable talent available on its roster. As a result, teams are able to adequately scheme against USC's offense, even with lesser personnel. USC needs a more experienced and creative offensive coordinator to direct its offense--and soon--otherwise the Trojans could turn into a program that wins recruiting titles, but not much else.

Ouch. But at least he does not single Kiffin out specifically--that was left to the posters on the internet message boards. Over at WeAreSC.com's Football Forum, there are no fewer than a dozen "Fire Lane Kiffin" posts--including one rumor that Mike Garrett had kept Head coach Pete Carroll from axing Kiffin after last year's Rose Bowl, and that such a change can be expected come January.

The biggest complaint is that Kiffin made no adjustments to UCLA's pass rush in the second half. No shotgun formations, no "ace" formation with two tight ends, no quick slants or slip-screens which used to be a trademark of Norm Chow's offense. For a team renowned for its second-half adjustments, these facts, combined with a loss, are unacceptable.
Trojan fans already thinking of Kiffin's replacement include former Arizona State head coach Dirk Koetter, former Stanford coach Walt Harris (sic), and the ever-popular return of Norm Chow.

Kiffin has his defenders, however, who say that it is Carroll's call to make, ultimately. One mitigating factor, however, could be Carroll's loyalty to Lane's father Monte Kiffin, under whom he served as defensive coordinator from 1980-1982 at North Carolina State.

Well, I, for one, think it's very sick that the Rose Bowl is now thinking about doing away with the National Anthem... and, instead, will have Rod Stewart come in to sing "If Only" to the USC and Michigan fans.

"If only I'd ever listened
to all of my closest friends,
and knew that it was over
and the party had to end...
If only."

I haven't heard that, but if its true that is a disgrace. Does California still consider itself part of the United States? One has to wonder.

T'was only my poor attempt at humor... there are no plans for Rod Stewart to sing at the Rose Bowl... just thought it would be fitting.

I can't tell if you're sarcastic in response to the sarcasm, or you really believe that the Rose would sub a Rod Stewart song in place of the National Anthem. Please tell me it's the former.

"I'm not used to this," Carroll said in a low whisper replacing his usually boisterous voice. "This is something new for me."
