Game Thread: #22 USC @ Texas || FOX || 7:00 p.m. CST || TEX -3.5

[Texas Jefe]

Just checking in, guess I'm glad I got up this morning

It’s one of those things if this happened to a saban team he would be on phone with conference commissioner demanding they contact ncaa. But Larry Scott can’t even get a direct tv deal

This is where I really dotty care for Helton. He'll just smile in the presser and not say a word.He's way too complacent I expect more.

 

[Scapegoat]

Texas ate their spinach.

 

[Phantom]

USC penalties 7-79
game ejection for tackling
Hands to face while bieng held etc...
clear safety missed....

Texas penalties 5-25 false starts
wars being mugged


That check cleared fast

Trojan fight, I'm 60 years old. I really don't pick fights on a message board. I even went o medical school at USC. I love that school, but at the end of this game. We both suck. At best, we'll see each other in the commode bowl in December.

I can agree both teams are putting on a shit show. Hoping Swanny changes directions. Helton and Tee gotta go. When you waste the talent SC has its time for a new coach.

Bout time texas...

I'll create all your gameday threads from now on....except for one.

I feel like lane kiffin was fired on the tarmac for less. You have to assume this won’t be last loss of season. It’s time for Lynn swann to step up and do his job. PAC 12 titles don’t save your job at SC or atleast it shouldn’t

It’s odd. USC has some serious talent, but they are mentally softer than Texas. I am not used to seeing that

It doesn't look like you need to worry about Pac titles in the near future.

PAC titles are nice for the Oregons maybe. But this is SC which is a much higher standard. I get the players liked Helton. But SC needs a coach that can get the most out of their talent. Helton isn't going to cut it

 

[The Oldtimer]

Damn USC really sucks. Time to bring back Pete Carroll.

Thats what I was telling you before the game. This isn't the SC you're used to. Which i think has a lot to do with Heltons demeanor. he's a nice guy. But he just doesn't translate to a solid college coach. And it shows in this team


All the players that bailed him out are gone.

They just completely imploded. It isn’t the QB. This is how Texas has ruined QBs. Go on the road and ask a freshmen to put the team on his back and win.

Yea USC fanbase will be at DEFCON 1 this week.

It's funny. I said it back in 2006 or 2007 on this board. No one does less with the talent they get than Texas and USC. Then I realized that it was media build up for Texas and Mack Brown. The media loved Mack Brown. He was the best at losing games he should win. It looks like it has continued for Texas. I have a feeling it's the same for USC.

Thats partially Tee. SC has a solid run game and preseason Tee said they would be a run team. But the RB by committee rotation hasn't been working. When Tee actually calls running plays. And when it is working he abandons it and goes straight passing game. the offense has no balance. JT has actually been solid for a freshman QB.

 

[Zooky]

Um. Targeting?

 

[GoldRusher]

Thing of beauty!

BS rule is ruining football

SC has definitely been guilty of wasting talent. A lot of it is lack of discipline both on and off the field. And on the field through their use of personnel and play calling

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

Feel like Texas should be up about 40 points

USC is quitting, but Texas is still too incompetent to blow them away by calling nonstop pass plays late in the game.

Last week was the same thing, but Tulsa did not quit and Texas almost gacked it.

Thank God USC is quitting.

Texas needs to know how to stomp on a team's neck when they are clearly the better team all night.

Oklahoma or Alabama would be up 65-14 now.
