Orange Bowl: Oklahoma-vs-Souther Cal

[CarMike]

For anyone who's watching the game and want to talk. Please do it here.

Off topic....why in the heck can't the person singing the Anthem do it the way it was supposed to be? I get so tired of hearing each different singer wanting to put their touch on the song.

Just sing it like it should be!

Now thats out of the way, Go OU!

[CarMike]

Anyone catch Shaq flipping the coin? Afterwards, he "pounded" [I guess thats what its called...:D] the OU players. He didn't even make eye contact with the Southern Cal players. lol

I wonder if that has to do with him leaving LA?

[CarMike]

The kicker from OU must have had the jitters. opening kickoff sails out of bounds.

[CarMike]

No one else interested in the game tonight? lol

[bfauble83]

Nah, I can't get into college football unless its WVU playing

[PGiddy18]

lol you just seemed to be having so much fun on your own mike, i don't think any body wanted to break that up! (My father is watching a tv show he taped last night... hopefully he'll let me turn it on after he's finished).

Really I'm indifferent, whichever team wins, nothing will change for me.

[CarMike]

I'm not a fan of either team really, but i'm pulling for Oklahoma.

Jason White is out playing Matt Leinart so far. OU moving the ball down the field. At the 5 yards line right now.

TD OU. Nice opening drive by OU.

I hate talking to myself.....:D

I just turned it on. Personally I am rooting for USC, for no particular reason other than their colors are pretty close to the Redskins and I think those would make excellent NFL uniforms for the Redskins.

I agree.
Looks like we got a good game here.

[CarMike]

ISF, Southern Cal drives the field for a TD. Nice drive.

I can't call Southern Cal, USC. Around here its University of South Carolina.

poor guys. When someone says "Carolina", they're talking about UNC. And when they say "USC", they're normally talking about Southern Cal...:D

They can go by thier nicknames "The (Game)cocks"

LMAO! Hmm... the colors are pretty. OH!! And so are some of the players wearing those colors.... like that qb.... :gwink: Why can't players like that go to LaSalle....

Why do you need young muscular guys when you have older 30 something guys right here? :D

.........

yeah... I'll let you answer THAT one....

[redskin_rich]

That was stupid for OU player to try to get that

How do you think I won my pick em title again? Doesn't everyone pick by who has the prettier unis?

USC just scored again.

[LATrueRedskin]

What a bonehead move to try and pick that ball up on your own 4 yard line.

[IowaSkinsFan]

Why do you need young muscular guys when you have older 30 something guys right here? :D

Yeah, I just picked up on that.

What's wrong with me Giddy? I thought I was your boy?

[Ramsey2Moss]

Go Oklahoma. I was watching earlier but now I'm not. I think USC's overrated and I think the refs gave them the first game of the year here at FedEx against my Hokes :(.

[PGiddy18]

Kinda like in horse racing.... I pick the horse with the coolest/prettiest name. I've done surprisingly well that way. Made myself a few dollars

What's the score? (I swear my father doesn't want me to watch football... he's got some star trek thing on... :banghead: )

As for CarMike's Comment:

Like I said, You guys think about that question for a little bit then come to Me with an answer. (You're still my boy ISF...)

[GibbsRules!]

USC...has got that mo

[GibbsRules!]

TD Trojans!!! Wow, they look scary good.

[LATrueRedskin]

OU is playing like garbage.

[IowaSkinsFan]

Like I said, You guys think about that question for a little bit then come to Me with an answer. (You're still my boy ISF...)

You know I have been working out? I'm huge. And quite the looker if I do say so myself.

21-7 USC, very early in the 2nd quarter.

[redskin_rich]

I'm rooting for USC but I want a game, this is getting ridiculous.

[Ramsey2Moss]

Looks like I'll have to cough up 500 pennies...:(

[CarMike]

Man, Southern Cal is killing OU. I'll admit i'm surprised.

[GibbsRules!]

Man, Southern Cal is killing OU. I'll admit i'm surprised.
I expected a dogfight Mike. USC got punched in the face and has taken the fight to OU. USC has a smothering D and OU looks shellshocked!

[IowaSkinsFan]

Man, Southern Cal is killing OU. I'll admit i'm surprised.

It's the uniforms.

I have to go now, my puter is in a separate room from the tube and I am missing most of the game.

See you guys and gals on the flip side.

[GibbsRules!]

I think Jason White might be a little overrated. He has a great supporting cast and that's as far as it goes...

[rskinsfan10]

This is about to get very ugly...

[LATrueRedskin]

28-7! Let's see what else is on.

[rskinsfan10]

Getting uglier....

[smoot]

anybody else not impressed by leinart?

i know his numbers are good but it seems to me its more of a product of having great players around him....see steve smith's touchdown catch for an example or that great one handed haul by the TE i believe

[dj_stouty]

I'm impressed.

He seems to have great field vision...and he has great touch on the ball.

We are looking at the next QB of the San Francisco 49ers....

[RichardBradley]

Another overated Oaklahoma team

[RichardBradley]

I'm impressed.

He sands tall in the pocket and dosent have happy feet he will be a star

[Chief Seeway]

Getting uglier....

Uglier still

[rskinsfan10]

This is getting out of hand. I love it.

[Jero]

Leinhart: 16/28, 390, 5 TD's so far...

What an arse kicking. I have an idea!

Trade UP to get Leinhart!

Just kidding...

[lakeskin]

:lol1: I was thinking the same thing...only kiddingly of course.

[dj_stouty]

Yikes...and I thought an 8 point USC win would be "decisive" enough. lol

[lakeskin]

OMG. Mickey Mouse just scored on OU. I think they should call the game.

[Patrick]

I think I said that USC would to a number on OU BUT dern, DIDN'T think the number would be 55. Oh well, so end another year of college bowl games that don't mean a thing! .................. NEED A PLAYOFF SYSTEM!!!!!!

[CarMike]

Leinart may not even come out. He's said over and over again that he enjoys college and the college life. Plus they have just about the entire team coming back next year.

If he stays, they may be even better next year....Thats scary.

[GibbsRules!]

I think Utah or Auburn would have given them a better game!

Definition of Jason White - See Chris Weinke

There is something to be said for 3 national championships in 3 years.

I don't think that has been done before, has it?

[Spence]

Very enjoyable game. I thought USC would win a close game, I'm glad they won in a rout. No doubt about this one. Absolute domination. It looked like the varsity against the j.v. out there.

[CarMike]

Not sure ISF...

Plus, does he really want to get drafted by the 49ers?

I wonder if Ford will show up anytime soon to defend his comments made before the game? :D

Man, I was really pulling OU. All they need is a better QB when the pressure is on.

[GolfFreak]

Good game ... until half time (LOL). But when you have so many turnovers and a stupid play (trying to recover that punt) you are destine to lose.

I know Leinart says he's not going pro, but I think he'll change his mind once he gets off cloud 9.

[BigCountry]

What a joke that was...Oklahoma didn't deserve to be on the field but I don't blame the BCS for this one cause everyone thought this was the best matchup. Now it looks like the Sooners are once again extremely overated and teams like Auburn or even V-tech would have at least made a game out of it.

[Ford]

I didn't make any particularly bold statements before the game. All I said was OU and USC were the best 2 teams and the country, and that they were. What can I say, we didn't show up to play. Marcus Walker looked like a true freshman at CB, Brodney Pool got burned a bunch of times, Jason made decisions I've never seen him make before, and our normally dominant O-line couldn't create space for AD to run. We didn't come to play, they did. OU's not overrated, they had a bad game. We've been to three national championships, won one, and won a Cotton Bowl and a Rose Bowl in the last 5 years. Don't you guys wish your school could pull that off?

And you're damn right I'm out wearing crimson and cream everything today. Boomer Sooner, we'll be back next year, and the year after that .. and the year after that ... .... ....

[IowaSkinsFan]

Plus, does he really want to get drafted by the 49ers?


I would be willing to bet that Carroll and Leinart will make a joint decision on what to do with the 9ers.

[CarMike]

I stated this is the "Erickson gets axed" thread yesturday. And it won't hurt if Norm Chow is named OC in San Fran.
