Suffering Sooner alum here offering congrads to SC fans. Really embarrassed it was not a better game. Just hope we dont become the Buffalo Bills of college football after that fall off the Wagon.

Not much of a game, I was really expecting a nice, close contest. Maybe next year.

Not to get off subject, but did anyone actually watch that horrible excuse for a halftime show? Don't get me wrong, I don't like watching them, but when Ashley Simpson got up there and actually TRIED to sing, she was downright horrible. It looked like she was trying to make up for that SNL lip-synching debacle. She even got booed hardcore at the end. IT WAS GREAT!!!!!

Can't we just let Penn State win every year? :D I mean USC for the National Title? No one cares aboute West Coast ball... and Michigan in the Rose Bowl... that made me want to die.

Not having a bowl game this year is awful (not that we deserved one) and having never been in contention for a BCS game undermines any arguement I make about a playoff... but I totally agree. There are a lot of obstacles to overcome before the system changes again though.

In the meantime I'll watch my tape of the 1987 Fiesta Bowl. Gotta love ESPN classic.

Problem with the playoff is that it makes the regular season a lot less exciting. (See: NCAA Basketball)

well, if only 4-8 teams can make the playoff for all of the marbles....then every game during the season is just as important as the playoff itself. I think all conference champs should make it (Screw you ND for staying out of a conference, and of course Navy). What ever it takes to make Human intevention less of a factor in deciding who gets to play and who does not......of course the bowl system would be almost destroyed by this.....but they still could make it work. I hate haveing Four or Five (Preseason) games before conference play. I say take away two or three of those games and make a playoff......Sh$t Div. 2 works fine every year.

thats why penn st hasnt been to the rose bowl since 1995, their only visit to the granddaddy of em all? beat your big 10 teams, get to the rose bowl, then talk about west coast football. btw usc beat penn st 29-5 in 2000.

and lets not forget last year's usc game AT auburn: 23-0
after last night, i have little doubt auburn would have posed much more of a challenge as they did last year.

Ok... a few people care about West Coast ball.

And yes we did lose in 2000. Its been a rough couple of years.

Since Paterno started coaching... USC has fallen to Penn State 4 Times... including 3 in a row ('91,'94,'96) and lets not forget the 1982 Fiesta Bowl. He's still got a winning record against them (4-3 overall). If you count the 1923 Rose Bowl before Paterno was coach (like saying "when dinosaurs ruled the earth") then the record is 4 - 4.

I will admit that had Penn State played USC this year we probably would have lost. Badly. But we'll never know because there wasn't a playoff*.

I'm going to stop writing now because this is only going to get out of control from here on out as I find ways to talk trash about every division one team that is not Penn State. Besides if I talk more about USC some people might be offended.


*Also requires Penn State to qualify for playoffs... which wouldn't have happened.

the rose bowl needs to get out of the stupid bcs.

the granddaddy is a big 10 champion v pac 10 champion game. tradition. there is nothing like waking up new years with ucla v ohio st, washington v purdue, michigan v usc, stanford v wisconsin etc. i dont care for seeing miami cheerleaders marching in the rose parade and i definitely could care less for your "undisputed" national champion.
