Congrats to the Beavers
The trojans D was stuck with some short fields from the 4 turnovers.
This USC team isnt that good, especially not good enough to turn the ball over 4 times and give up a punt return for a TD.
At least they didnt hang their heads and just mail it in when they were down 20 like a few other programs have done in recent years.
Build from this, get pissed off, and take it out on everyone else the rest of the year
Fight On

Props to Oregon State for taking it to the Trojans. They were clearly the better team today and came ready to play.
How in the hell does SC come out looking like that after a bye? Horrible.

Lane Kiffin and that offense lack imagination.

The defense (read secondary) couldn't make plays when they needed to. Hell, that and SC's defense is not getting turnovers while the offense did their best to make Oregon State feel right at home.

No way in hell you deserve to win when you're out-played and (I think) out-coached. Very unlike a Pete Carroll coached team.

Husker4ever · Post by **Husker4ever** » Sun Oct 29, 2006 1:36 am

I dunno...Carroll doesn't seem to run the most disciplined program and maybe his players got out of the normal routines having all that time off. Too much strutting around at the clubs in SC gear looking to pull skanks and not enough time in the gym and reviewing films? Possibly. Gotta give Oregon State props for pulling it out but it's kinda weird seeing a sickly talented team go down even if it was on the road. They finally woke up and came back but too little too late.

Van · Post by **Van** » Sun Oct 29, 2006 3:22 am

The turnovers and the returned punt for a TD were too much to overcome. Too many points off of turnovers/mistakes.

For everybody who's been wondering where the normal USC went this past month, there's just one key stat one needs to peruse: turnover differential.

USC is simply forcing no turnovers on defense. They're giving up a few too many on offense too, and that's what killed them today, but what's been hurting USC every week is their inability to get quick scores and short fields from their defense. That's why their offense has sputtered and that's what's kept teams in games where normally USC would've ran off and hid.

Congrats to Oregon St. Great win. Gotta love seeing a school like that getting to go apeshit on a perfect Fall Saturday. Finally, Oregon St looks to be on a permanent upswing. For a team that was among the four or five worst D-1 programs in all of football for a good twenty or thirty years it's cool to see those guys finally getting some sustained glory over a decent stretch of seasons.

Gotta be Big Fun in Corvallis tonight.

As for USC, I'm actually fairly proud of 'em. Had they mailed it in after going down by 23 late in the third quarter then that would've really sucked. They got off the mat and showed heart. Despite their mistakes they fought like champions and they nearly pulled it off.

Oh well, we all thought they'd lose a couple games this year and there's the first one. It could totally fall apart now with the Oregon-Cal-ND-UCLA swing still to come and nobody here can honestly say they saw Oregon St being the team to finally stop USC's nation's best regular season winning streak but there it was so...fuck it, and move on.

-Nation's longest winning streak: gone, vs Texas in the title game last year.

-Nation's longest regular season winning streak: gone.

-Pac 10's longest winning streak: gone.

USC still holds the nation's longest home field winning streak though so now the question is who's going to break that one? Even as spotty as USC is playing these days they're not going to go down easily at home...

Stupidest thing of all in this watered down CF season (with apologies to OSU and Michigan) is that even as suspect as USC is they still could land in the title game if they run the table the rest of the way and they get some help from some other teams along the way. Late season impressive wins against two loss Oregon, one loss Cal, one loss ND and traditional rival UCLA could still vault USC into the title game.

I almost hope it doesn't happen. Unless they completely changed the look of their recent play they'd likely get stomped by Ohio St. I think I'd just as soon somehow see USC get to the Rose Bowl. I doubt it at this point but the Rose Bowl feels about as high as this very flawed team ought to rightfully find themselves.

They'd likely have to sweep Oregon, Cal and UCLA in order to do it and that's a plenty tall enough order for these guys at this point. I certainly wouldn't bet on it.

Anyway, I'm not aware of there being any Oregon St fans on this board but congrats to you and to all other Oregon St fans. Hell, congrats to the Pac 10 for finally taking down USC...

MgoBlue-LightSpecial · Sun Oct 29, 2006 3:39 am

Things are lining up just right for WVU.

The rest of their schedule looks to be pretty tough though, with games @ Louisville, @ Pitt, versus Rutgers, and versus feisty teams in South Florida and Cincinnati.

None of those are necessarily going to be easy wins by any stretch.

Roofer · Post by **Roofer** » Sun Oct 29, 2006 3:49 am

Haven't posted on this board in forever, but I just knew there'd be some good discussion about this game.

I have to concur on the Kiffin deal. How and why the fuck do you even run the ball with 3 minutes to go when:

1) your backs suddenly got a case of fumble-itis
2) the clock is not on your side
3) even if u get the TD, if u miss the 2-pt'er, you still need time to get the onsides kick and get in FG territory.

Their gresatest success came throwing the ball, although Booty is startin to really piss me off with some of his erratic tosses. Nonetheless, they moved the chains when they were airin it out to Smith (what a shame his effort is overshadowed by the L) and Jarrett. Just dumb dumb dumb.

Ok, I'm done for another 3 or 4 months.

Truth be told, I was glad for Oregon St. Obviously I didn't want USC to lose but they were bound to lose here eventually and having a program like Oregon St gain such a win is pretty cool. They've been on the short end of the stick for so long that there's just no way I can begrudge 'em this one.

In a weird way I'm glad our streak came to an end at the hands of a team like Oregon St, in a little stadium like the one in Corvallis. To me that was much easier to take than to see the streak go down at the hands of Cal, ND or UCLA.

fuck you van fag, you dont get it do ya? its not the fact that usc lost, its the fact that they lost to an un-ranked squad. you dumb shit.

see, you seem to think that usc is a CONTENDER. last I checked, a true contender for a national title, does NOT lose to un-ranked teams.

now, before you bring up nebraska losing to okie st. dont bother, see, nebraska isnt a contender, so, if we lose, no one cares,
BUT YOU? you live in a fantasy world, one in which you believe that usc is a national champion contender. WRONG.

again, your fairy faggott trojnas didnt just lose, they lost to an un-ranked team, you dumb shitforbrains cum guzzler.

bradhusker · Post by **bradhusker** » Sun Oct 29, 2006 6:40 am

van has to realize that usc's run is over, they are toast.
AND HERE IS THE BEST PART!
at no time did they equal nebraska's famous run of 93-95, 94-95, or 93-97,

now, lets look at those groupings very carefully, shall we?

that 5 year run, from 93 thru 97, was sick, it included 3 undefeated seasons!! 3 titles!

usc only had 1 undefeated season,

the two year run of 94-95 featured back to back PERFECTION, no blemish,

usc's 03-04 seasons featured a loss to a crap cal team, tisk tisk, to bad.

the possible threepeat from 93 thru 95 was lost by us, meaning we missed a FG with 1 second left.

usc's possible threepeat was not nearly as close, meaning, texas took you, and you were helpless to stop them, you didnt control your own destiny, nebraska did, but we missed a FG.

finally, its fun for me to rub it in vans face, for van to realize that usc's run is FINISHED, OVER, DONE.
and, may I say, you didnt equal the run of nebraska in the mid 90's.
nebraska was clearly more dominant, more powerful, and more scary.
plus, nebraska faced much tougher bowl competition, having to face florida teams in their own home state, in their own cribs.
florida st in florida, and miami in their own crib, with NFL hall of famers ray lewis and warren sapp, plus, a gator team that was 12-0,
not to mention, tennessee teams loaded with NFL talent,
in contrast? usc has faced no one, garbage, and, your run is over, and you didnt equal the famous run by the ALL TIME JAUGGGERNAUT NEBRASKA FOOTBALL TEAMS from the mid nineties.

curious? hows that make ya feel? like a lil' fairy?
is it hard to swallow?
van?

Unless you are the 02 buckeyes you can only scabdick it for so long. USC hadn't looked like a power in a while, they could only come up with so many meh performances before their luck ran out and somebody handed them an L. Glad to see it was Oregon State, they needed a big win. It was a very nice day for OSU's. Surprsing that a team that got flat-out bitched by Boise and was without it's best player in Yvenson Bernard handed USC it's first Pac loss in forever.

Props to the Trojans on a superb run though. That is very impressive. I'm sure you'll be starting a new streak soon-enough when Booty and company are a little more seasoned. Wish I could see(realistically anyway) my huskers ever having a streak like that again.

About Booty.

He has more than enough talent to throw to with Jarrett, Smith and Davis at TE. Those playing behind these guys are young and the ones that need seasoning.

What drives me crazy about Booty are his reads or the lack of them at times. I've lost count of how many times he's thrown into double and triple coverage.

I'm gonna have to criticize Jarrett too. Dude needs to go after the ball and use his body to shield the defender from the ball better. If he has any thought as to turning pro after this year he definitely needs to rethink that.

Danimal · Post by **Danimal** » Sun Oct 29, 2006 3:44 pm

Newbie qb's rarely win national titles because they tend to do the stuff you were talking about. He should get there, he just isn't going to be an top-gun qb in his first year. I'd say the loss of Chow probably shows though. Nobody developed qb's better than him.

Unfortunately for Booty he'll probably be losing his two top receivers this offseason. I think Jarrett will jump to the NFL. He may not be a finished product but with his incredible upside he is easily a first-rounder.

Van · Post by **Van** » Sun Oct 29, 2006 4:00 pm

If Booty still had Reggie Bush, Lendale White, his two best offensive lineman and Darnell Bing as teammates this year, like he would've in any other era of CF, he'd likely be following in Leinart's footsteps as that rare newbie QB to win a national title...

That's just it with USC. That's what we're seeing with them this year. They look like a hastily thrown together pie that got taken out of the oven before it had time to fully cook.

Or, in the words of bradhusker, they look like a cornfed, skullfucking premie...

Danimal · Post by **Danimal** » Sun Oct 29, 2006 4:19 pm

Valid point. If guys had finished their eligibility Booty would be carrying a much smaller load. With the backs and linemen he would've had he could've been on "just don't blow the game" mode all the way to the showdown with Ohio State. Booty wouldn't have to be the "the man" in his first year starting. That is the bad-side of being a loaded team, you will lose some guys early.

Van · Post by **Van** » Sun Oct 29, 2006 4:40 pm

Agreed, Mace.

Danimal, what bugs me most is the number of guys who left early. That was unprecedented, even in this era. In previous eras it simply never happened at all but even in this era a team normally only prematurely loses a guy or two, if any. The notion of losing your five best underclassmen all in one fell swoop, including a returning Heisman winner, your anchor at RB and your two anchors on the offensive line?

Never happened before.

Sure, a team like USC is expected to be able to "re-load", but that's upon graduation, ie, following normal timetables/projections. We weren't thinking we were going to have to re-load at those positions this year. Those spots were supposed to be our dependable difference makers...not our completely untested question marks.

Even with USC's talent it was too much to overcome. It's not like the other teams out there aren't also talented, and trying their damndest...

Not sure what planet you're living on but losing all those guys prematurely (specifically, those guys!) isn't most people's idea of "good fortune".

"Oregon St fans"?

Until toOSU (" the other OSU ") wins a big game, or takes a run at a bowl game, there's no such freaking thing. Biggest bandwagoner in the entire sports world (outside of SoCal, of course).

Heck, Colin Cowherd even took a run at "Beaver fan" on his show this week(when he was a local show, "Beaver fan" took A LOT of shit).

When the Cunts ended their stay at the bottom of D1 in the late 90's, Beaverfan was the most deplorable example of a football fan in history. First a bowl game, then a #4 BCS finish(if memory serves correctly), and it was on! Suddenly, Beaverfan was THE expert on football and football fandom...I mean, Husker Nation had no business stepping to the mighty Beaverfans...just ask them. It was true comedy gold in the U&L.

There is no bigger bitch in CFB than "Beaver fan."

But, to answer your psuedo-question...I think Derron is the sole Beaver on this board, to the best of my knowledge. But the Pussies have to win the College World Series or something before he'll chime in. That's not meant as an indictment against Derron -- it's just how Beverfan rolls.

What's funny, is every radio/fishwrap hack in the entire Northwest pretty much said "if any game has ever had 'upset' written all over it, it's this one." People calling their "upset shot" was almost a universal theme around here. I didn't call my shot one way or another(or not on this board...I was pretty vocal among my peers with "take out a second mortgage with the 13.5"), but dang, double-digit homedogs rarely fail.

And it is with a sense of great misfortune and a heavy heart that I will go out on a limb, and say I, unfortunately, due to my penchant for "all sports, all the time," and my location, am probably more familiar with the Beavs than just about anybody here...I hope that's not the case, but it's probably true...and not something I'm proud of, as a devout Beaverhater...

It didn't get them into a BCS bowl, and it wasn't even the biggest win against USC -- OJ's Trojans came into Corvallis as the #1 ranked team in 1967, which was right at the beggining of OSU's decades-long fall from grace, and were greeted by a nasty fall storm, and lost 3-0. From that day on, it was all downhill.

But daaaaaang....Beaverfan is going to be one insufferable POS around these parts...but I'll take solace in the fact I'll only have to listen to "Husker Nation could take some pointers from us" for a week...then it will be business as usual....silence and empty seats.

I do profess Beaver heritage... it was a great school, I learned how to build dams, canals, golf courses, how to hot knife hash, which soriority sluts would knob you in the closet...but they have never been a compelling force in the PAC 10, let alone the nation in FOOTBALL. Now you got to rack the Colege World Series win, but the drama that is the boosters and rich alumni, are looking to fry Riley every week, and every one waiting to see what old man Reser says overshadows ANY thing that football team does.

OSU got over on USC... not something you can really brag about, because I believe it was the first win over SC in 16 years. Do it again hnext year and at least 3 times in the next 6 and you might crow a bit.

I am not Beaverfan that will crow about this, it was a game that could happen to any team.

I did run into some buds (alumni) at a resturant way the fuck out towards Tillamook last night, they were welll... fucking wasted after drinking all day and most of the evening, but had a pretty good time I would say. Not bad for some older guys, 68, 63, and a couple of younger one too..

It was ther Beavers first win over USC in 7 years and their second in 33 years.
Oregon State benefitted from a USC that shot themselves in the foot drive after drive.
None of USCs turnovers were due to great plays by Oregon States defense
they intercepted an underthrown ball
pounced on a fumble after a pulling guard knocked it out of his own qbs hands
got another fumble that was caused by a backs own hip pad
The problem with the Trojans mass exodus for the league last year is they left a bunch of kids who were used to watching those who left early make the plays instead of themselves.
For all of the Trojans problems this year, they were never behind in any game by more than 3 points.
Arkansas and Nebraska rolling over like Sun Belt cunts hurt the Trojans as those two games prepared them for the season as much as games vs Louisiana Monroe or Wofford would have.
The kids playing for USC this year just didnt have an answer for a hostile crowd feeding off the Trojans being on the wrong side of the score board.
I do have to applaud these kids though for getting back up and fighting this one til the end instead of rolling over like all the teams USC had been playing in big games the last several years. They played with a Trojan spirit and fought on. As a Trojan supporter, alumn and fan... thats all I can ask from the kids

Translation: Our QB can't throw deep, our offense had major issues because OSU's defense wasn't great. Our guy fumbled and the defense shouldn't have fallen on it because it hit the guard. I never knew hip pads caused fumbles.

The problem with the Trojans mass exodus for the league last year is they left a bunch of kids who were used to watching those who left early make the plays instead of themselves.

Wait, let's go back a few months when myopic/idiot $C fan was claiming Booty as the next great QB...oh he's a HS all american, he's been in our system for 3 years, he's going to be the next heisman winning QB from $C etc.....then there were the running backs....Oh, Johnson, Moody, are high school all americans who will step right in and lead us to another national championship and now that Chauncey has become eligible our running backs will continue to lead us to the promised land.

The kids playing for USC this year just didnt have an answer for a hostile crowd feeding off the Trojans being on the wrong side of the score board.

Oh, so blame the crowd. Like you're the only team that's ever had to play on the road vs. a hostile opponent. For the record I'm not sure Beiver/Reiser Stadium ranks up there as one of the toughest to play. Hell CSUN probably had a more hostile crowd.

I do have to applaud these kids though for getting back up and fighting this one til the end instead of rolling over like all the teams USC had been playing in big games the last several years. They played with a Trojan spirit and fought on. As a Trojan supporter, alumn and fan... thats all I can ask from the kids

It's nice that you're applauding them. I'm sure you were cursing them until the 4th quarter. It's nice that teams roll over for SC because in other posts $C fan has aid that EVERY team brings their "A" game when they play the Trojans. So which one is it? Teams roll over or they bring their A game?

Save it you whining cunt. Your team barely got by the Washington schools and the average play finally caught up to you. Nobody feels sorry that you lost people to the NFL because all we heard from your little bitch mouth was, it wo't affect the Trojan Nation because we just reload with more HS all americans who just love to compete and will continue on with the trojan tradition.

If Booty still had Reggie Bush, Lendale White, his two best offensive lineman and Darnell Bing as teammates this year, like he would've in any other era of CF, he'd likely be following in Leinart's footsteps as that rare newbie QB to win a national title...

It was ther Beavers first win over USC in 7 years and their second in 33 years.
Oregon State benefitted from a USC that shot themselves in the foot drive after drive.
None of USCs turnovers were due to great plays by Oregon States defense
they intercepted an underthrown ball
pounced on a fumble after a pulling guard knocked it out of his own qbs hands
got another fumble that was caused by a backs own hip pad

Maybe you two should hook up and grudge fuck each other...if my Aunt had a penis, she would be my Uncle. If the Dallas Cowbitches had Roger Staubach, they might contend, if Walter Peyton still played for the Bears, they would be even better, if Red Auerbach still coached the Celtics, they would not suck...blah blah blah...

Nice job SC apologist..

Derron, your "if only" analogies fall flat in this instance.

Your aunt NEVER had a penis, hopefully. Walter Payton, Roger Staubach and Red Auerbach completed their tenures, as best they could.

That's not what happened with USC this year. What happened to them this year has no precedent in the annals of CF. In no other era has any CF team ever seen all their best underclassmen bolt for the NFL a year early. That's something that didn't happen at all, just six or seven years ago, much less five players all at once. This was decidedly different, and a huge difference maker.

Lax, I'm hoping you're directing your tirade solely at SoCalTrjn. Neither myself, Jimma or GregInPG were ever saying anything this year to the effect of "USC will simply re-load and win it all again."

Far from it, in fact. (I also don't recall SoCalTrjn saying anything like that this year, but maybe he did and I just didn't see it...) By and large USC Fan on this board was consistently ranking USC lower than the rest of the people here, from the preseason forward. We've been saying we lost too many people and we're too injured and we're simply not that good this season and that we shouldn't be ranked so highly. Then a lot of the peanut gallery would chime in with, "Yeah, yeah, sure. Five Star U will just simply plug in another future NFL first rounder and nothing will change..."

We never felt that way. Not at all. We knew we weren't what we've been.

SoCalTrjn...

The kids playing for USC this year just didnt have an answer for a hostile crowd feeding off the Trojans being on the wrong side of the score board.

Dunno 'bout that. They saw their first deficit in front of a hostile crowd yesterday and they responded to it brilliantly. If they convert that final two point play they would've completed a 23 point fourth quarter comeback, on the road, in conference. Dunno how much more you could ask from a group of kids who'd mostly never been in such a situation before.

Then again you did follow up that comment by applauding them for getting up off the canvas and fighting on, so maybe you just didn't communicate very well what you meant to say...
