SportsHoopla's Most Storied Program Tournament - (3) USC vs (6) Alabama

[TheRobotDevil]

Again, whatever number of national championships it is, the NCAA still recognizes a shit load more for Alabama than for USC.

It is also not nearly as big a myth as USC WILL PLAY ANYBODY ANYWHERE...

Since 1888 USC has played 1186 games. 651 were conference games, leaving 475 OOC games

Of those 475, 86 were Notre Dame, 104 were B1G teams, 36 were ACC, 33 were SEC and 29 were Big 12

Which leaves 187 games for the shit previously mentioned. So, 40% of your all-time OCC opponents are lesser teams of one sort or another...60 of which were against lesser I-A teams(MWC, Sun Belt...) leaving more than 120 games against teams that weren't even at the FCS level.

But hey, you've never played an FCS team, so you still have that going for you...false myths indeed.

This isn't bama we don't lay high school teams like Troy every year. We play real OOC games like ND every year

Stoned coaches:


Bama: Wallace Wade, Frank Thomas, Bear Bryant, Gene Stallings, Nick Saban

USC: McKay, Robinson, <crickets>

You're just butthurt that USC hasn't been good enough to be invited to one of these kickoff shindigs since they started back up in 2008. Alabama by contrast has been invited to 6 previously and 3 upcoming games. Welcome back to the party, we'll try not to Bogart them from here on out.

I agree. It makes one hell of a story to lose to a 40+ pt underdog. And a guy who's only untainted championship was given as a bitch prize.

ESPN: "we are so sorry we couldn't ride your ballsack into the top 2 of the BCS polls. So well just let you have the championship anyway without having to play for it, EVEN THOUGH THAT'S HOW IT WORKS NOW." Sincerely, 2012.

The rematch game was awful okie light was robbed by the system

True true the big ten isn't afraid to travel either would be nice to see bama step up and lose the fear tho. For such a big program en sech

You do realize Alabama is 3-0 against USC in LA right?

I don't think fear is the issue.

If anyone got robbed it was LSU.

Alabama has never in it's history played Troy. Alabama doesn't play in state schools except for Auburn which was basically forced by the state legislation.

We are sophisticated, we import our cupcakes.

USC is a stepping stone school for coaches who leave for better programs.

Pete Caroll to the NFL and Lane Kiffin to Alabama.

It's not like Nick Saban has lost to anyone like Louisiana-Monroe, right?

 

[outofyourmind]

Damn, Clarkson has the Alabama Boys dancing to his tune.

Lane Kiffin left on By choice?

Yep, he just had to piss off the AD enough so they would be forced to pay him $3.5 million a year to come coach at Alabama.

lol, everything is a troll right?

You mean you play Notre Dame and a REAL High School...USC has played as many REAL High Schools teams or equivalent as they have Notre Dame.

Nah... Not with a national championship at stake.

Actually they were robbed by a team USC tends to lose to when it matters most, a scrub. A barely Bowl eligible scrub at that.

Bama Becky convinced me to Roll Tide

I like how the term 'bitch move' is being flung around in this thread.

BTW ... I farted in here.

"Gloomy Gus" Henderson, Howard Jones and Pete Carroll say Hi.

Pete Caroll to the NFL and Lane Kiffin to Alabama.

The Trojans progressed Pete producing a Super Bowl Champion coach. Saban had to flee the NFL for Bama. As far as Kiffin the only stepping that was done was Bama stepping in shit awful move by bama
