hmmm...u probably thought they wouldn't beat the Sooner too. like i said, u people from the midwest just have no idea how good USC is. youll be reminded Jan 4th!Incentive said:the trojans arent gonna beat the longhorns. nuff said
Whoever said:USC's streak will end. Texas is going to rout the trojans.
Also, Reggie Bush is the only Heisman this year.
gotanassfetish said:USC is on another level. They haven't won 34 games in a row by chance. They could be the best team college football has ever seen. Those of you who live in the Midwest and East Coast just dont know how good they are. You all thought Oklahoma would beat the Trojans. hahaha. 55-19! I loved every minute of it. Texas's defense will be exploited by Pete Carroll & the Trojans. They will run up the points & the Longhorns wont be able to keep up for long.
hmmhoyhoy said:Texas?? They dont have enough weapons. USC is packed everywhere, the only place Texas has them is special teams. I am neutral but I dont see Texas doin anything. USC game

UT enters the contest riding a 19-game winning streak and having posted 12 wins in a season for the first time in school history. Texas has also won at least 11 games for the fourth time in five years. The Longhorns have posted nine (or more) victories in a school-best eight straight seasons.
With its invitation to the Rose Bowl, Texas is headed to its eighth straight bowl game. That marks the Horns' longest streak since they went to nine straight bowls from 1977-85. It also is just the third time in Longhorn history they have earned spots in at least eight consecutive bowl games. Texas also earned berths in eight bowls in a row from 1968-75.
This year's bid marks UT's 11th in the last 12 years and the 45th bowl bid overall (T-No. 2 on the NCAA all-time chart/first among Big 12 schools). Head coach Mack Brown has led his teams to a bowl game in each of his last 14 seasons. That's the second-longest active streak in the nation.
Texas enters the Rose Bowl having won three of its last four bowl games and has a 4-3 record in bowl contests under Mack Brown. He is the first Longhorn coach since Darrell Royal, who was 8-7-1 in bowl games, to post a .500 or better record in postseason contests. The back-to-back bowl victories in 2001-02 marked the first time the 'Horns had won consecutive bowl games since 1968-69. Texas won five straight bowl contests from 1963-69.
"We have all kinds of issues (matching up against Texas)," USC coach Pete Carroll said. "To see all the highlight shows each weekend, (quarterback Vince Young) keeps scoring long plays and long touchdowns and getting guys down the field throwing the ball, whether it's on rhythm or out of rhythm, which he's remarkably talented at. We'll have to focus tremendously on how to keep him under wraps knowing that 300 yards a game is a lot of yards for a guy to get. The problem is they have a lot of other players that play really well, too, and a defense that plays lights out."

AsianxxxChick said:AMEN.
We are the SOUTH. The ONLY State in the Union to have ever been it's own Republic.
'Nuff said.
gotanassfetish said:By the way, you are wrong! California was the Bear Flag Republic in 1846 after the war with Mexico. Oh, and I wish Texas would become an independent nation. Who needs 'em?
AsianxxxChick said:Y'know, I had forgotten all about that, gotanassfetish. Thanks for the correction! :wave:
As for Texas? You needn't be so hostile or juvenile. Texas is one of the very few states that the entire Union as a whole depends on for a great deal of everyday products - beef, oil, rice, corn, natural gas, cotton, sugar cane, banking and finance, medical research, computer research and development. Need I go on?
Lighten up, okay? Don't make remarks that'll eventually start a flame war. This thread is for fun ... not bullshit hatred or remarks.
