Rose Bowl = Laugher
Is it just me, or does anyone else here think that this game isn't going to be close at all. SC wins this by at least 20 points!
SC has the best offense... ever. SC will out scheme Texas on both sides of the ball. Texas hasn't seen an offense or defense anywhere near as complex as (or fast) as SC's. Carroll will have one linebacker spy on Young in order to contain him. Plus, with 4 weeks to plan, Carroll will find ways to get favorable matchups on both sides ofthe ball (especially between SC D and Texas O). Plus, Texas already has been talking way too much smack. Sc's only knock over the last 2 years is that they sometimes wait too long to shift into second gear. Vince Young promising a Texas win (and insulting Bush publicly) should take care of that. Plus, SC has home field with the game being in LA. SC alumni are the ones jacking ticket prices up to $1000+ each for the worst seats (and the worst seats in the Rose Bowl are painfully bad). Again, I say SC wins this by 20. |

As a person that believes Texas has a great chance of winning, I will respond with this.

Re: Rose Bowl = Laugher
Fresno state runs a train on USC's defense and you think they will still contain Vince Young?

Speed kills...especially in college football. USC is one of the fastest teams offensively ever. With a month to rest up and their legs fresh, I look for the Trojans to run away from Texas and win/cover easily.--Big Al--

Has anybody seen a sportsbook with individual player props on this game yet?

So, when has Texas faced any team with the speed and/or complexity of SC's offense or defense? Oh, and when have they faced a team with both? Umm.. never and that could be a problem. Just ask Bob Stoops about last year's game. |

Re: Rose Bowl = Laugher
Of course Texas is not a perfect team, but this business about Texas A&M has absolutely no relevance to the original post, which claimed that SC has a uniquely complex defense. If you want to argue "SC has a vulnerable defense, but it won't matter because Texas can't open it up the way Fresno State can," then fine, but it would be a different discussion than the one we've been having.
Does anyone actually want to contest the point that the caliber of SC's defense is nowhere close to the caliber of its offense? |

[/ QUOTE ] Actually I agree with you, but how is somebody just saying "Fresno St." as an arguing point any different than somebody just saying "Texas A&M?" Exactly. It is not. Each team has had spots during the season where they looked less than perfect. It happens. For every blemish on USC, I can quote one on Texas and vice-versa. |
