Their recent records might say something about how they are not the team that won a National Championship. But, they are very tough at home and they scheduled an extra week for us. That all adds to their chances. Their fans think we'll be "shocked" by their speed. I only hope their team thinks the same way and takes us lightly(though I doubt that happens). 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.

Damn, they've got alot coming back up front on both sides of the ball. You gotta love their LBs. They have an experienced quarterback, a Heisman Trophy-candidate TB, two very good WRs.

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.

Whoever posted that must think that Bush and Leinart are still on the team. Last year, USC had 4 wins by 21+: Wash St., Oregon St., Notre Dame, and Idaho. This years trojans are a shadow of last year, and they haven't played a team of OSU's caliber since the 06 Rose Bowl. I hope the USC players are that overconfident. 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.

The witching month is around the corner for this game. I wonder if abc has booked the people who will introduce the starters. In Nebraska vs. USC, Larry the cable guy introduced N's lineup and I think Will Farrell did it for SC. In keeping with tradition, maybe Richard Lewis introducing the Buckeyes?

Suffering from a little bit of insomnia tonight and decided to read the Trojan board. Figured I would let you guys know what I found out...

- Their Defense is an immovable object, Beanie will not get 50 yards.
- Their LB group is by far the best ever with no real competition
- Their entire secondary is faster than Small but they weigh much more
- tOSU returns a lot of starters, but have you seen how fast the Trojans are?
- The average predicted score is somewhere in the range of 15 point victory for the speed-demons
- Seriously, have you seen how fast the Trojans are? No, seriously?

After reading that board I felt like I was reading a group of middle school kids telling each other how great they are. Occasionally someone with a registering IQ of football gives breakdown along the lines of the Buckeyes; and Todd Boeckman is the reason we haven't gotten over the hump the past 2 years because he is mistake prone. I vaguely remember watching TB running for his life against Florida and throwing all those interceptions.

Does Buckeye nation have a board as juvenile as WeAreSc.com? Admittedly I don't travel to Bucknuts or whatever it's called now, but either I have completely missed the boat on the most dominant defense at any level of football, or a reality check is needed over there. I wonder if USC should join the SEC?

Let them talk, after September 13th, post here again after reading their forum on the excuses they come up with.

I believe what they say, they are faster, stronger, faster, more dominant, faster.....:tongue2:

I think that most SC fans DO NOT think this game will be a blowout! I think the final score difference will be a td or less. It could go either way, 2 good teams, of course, like pretty much everyone on the buckeyeplanet thinking OSU will win, I like SC's chances also. Oh, and methomps is a pretty knowledgeable football poster as well.:) By the way, ask methomps, he reads the same stuff over there that I do.

That's exactly what you were doing; and yes, a certain other Buckeye board was taken over by middle-schoolers years ago. That's when I started Googling for the usernames that had disappeared. That's how I found this place.

Do I need to quote osu fans that post on wearsc.com? The overconfident comments go both ways! Buckeye fans post some over the top posts about the buckeyes as well. I just hope it is as great a game as I think it will be! Sorry if I sounded harsh, but the fact that you posted those comments is almost as bad as writing them! We all read junk like that, but most football people can see it for what it is, laugh and move on. wearesc.com is a good site, it also has alot of current students on there.When posters get retarded, someone usually lets them know about it.:)
