Is there a rule about complaining about rules?

I still think we lose a close one and that will just start their fans yapping about how over rated we are. All I know is this team will be ready and won't back down one iota. This will not be a high scoring game. That helps us.

Mitch Mustain thinks so...but he's not playing. It's old, but oh well...

Q: Who would you like to play if you won the job and led USC to the national championship game?
A: Oh man, that's easy. Florida. I think that there's a lot of other teams and I think everybody's kind of sick to death of hearing about the other teams. We play one of them this year. . . . Florida, at least the way I've seen it, has been I guess you could say our equivalent, not in the sense they've had our history in the last five or six years, just in the fact that they're the big team. They're the sexy team in the East. On the East Coast they're it. You've got Tim Tebow; they're loaded. They're young like we are. I just think it would be a great matchup for the two of us. Eventually, if not this next year, two or three years down the road would be awesome.

We're going to be green in spots on the OL. We've got a couple ?-marks on the DL.
We'll be great by November, but will still be a work in progress in September.
I don't see any way we can beat them by more than 21 points.

Let the USC posters talk all they want. Come Sept. 14th, one team's fans will be looking forward to the next game, and the other's will be making excuses. |
I've come to the conclusion that methomps is the exception to the norm. And thank G-d that there are people who use their noggins yet root for other teams.

I like how Mitch Mustain acts as though he's the scion of high and mighty USC football. He had his mommy whine and complain to his last coach, then quit and transferred. Sounds like he's a real winner.
You know what I'm sick of? Hearing USC fans complain about not playing in the championship game after losing to Stanford. When you lose to a 7 touchdown underdog, you shouldn't be allowed to into the zip code where the championship game is played, much less play in it.
