On the USC boards, they are praising Va. Tech for being brave enough to schedule such a fine team as themselves to open the season. The insinuation was that teams such as LSU don't want to have anything to do with "real" competition OOC. I posted the truth, but being a USC board, I was quickly put to rout and told that Va. Tech, just like their SEC friend, Auburn, wanted to play the best team in the country to start the year.
I've been to the USC boards too. They act like are a bunch of six year olds. The more I think about it, they might be. I made a sensible comment that I wanted to debate with them...and those "homers" all freaked out on me...It was terrible.
It is the little wee wee response typical of uneducated, uninformed Californians. They feel they are owed everything since they risk life and limb daily on a piece of earth just waiting to float away into the ocean. If they were smart at all they would move to Louisiana and cheer for the Tigers....THE team playing for THE BCS National Championship in 2003! Screw those homers
Perhaps you should have asked them why, then, did Va. Tech back out of their deal with US if they were so anxious to open with the best team in the nation?
Damn, that may be my two LEAST favorite teams right now. Vagina Tech vs. the Trojans (insert joke here).
I'm lost here. Va Tech backed out with LSU to play USC? WTF? I thought they couldn't afford to play us (or any big-time school for that matter) because of the 11-game schedule. . .
Hey, Belushi ... the Germans didn't bomb Pearl Harbor. OU fans are the OKLA-Homers ... get it ... and dumbarse USC fans are ... something else ... but not homers ... valley girls, bathhouse ferries or turd burglars ... anything but homers. You're confusing the Okies who (are dumb as a) post here.
Hey, if USC is so interested in playing us next year, here's what they need to do: 1) Pull out of the game on Aug. 28 versus Va. Tech. The a**holes did it to us, so karma dictates that USC do it to them. 2) Ask BYU to consider taking Va. Tech's place. I know the USC-BYU game is currently set for Provo, but you never know until you ask (BYU played in a preseason classic just 2 yrs ago, so they may crave the extra exposure this nationally-televised game would bring). As for the game officials and the network, if teams like Arkansas St., Tulane and Iowa State---all participants in "kickoff classic"-type games the past 3 seasons---are "good enough", then so is BYU. 3)IF--big if--BYU is amenable to making the swtich, then it leaves both USC and LSU with big ol' September 4 gaps in their schedules. USC was planning on their Sept 4 game being an away game, anyways, and LSU was planning on their Sept 4 game being a home game. Hmmm...
