Strider Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 As a USC fan, glad that USC won...yeah, FIGHT ON! and all that jazz...BUT TO ME, the real highlight of the bowl season was watching UTAH KICK ALABAMA'S ARSE! Take that, SEC and all the media that sneered at Utah's record! Utah went into the Superdome, a virtual home game for Alabama, and took the Tide's lunch money. Utah is THE ONLY UNDEFEATED TEAM in the FSD. No other school can make that claim. They beat a good BYU team...they beat an underrated Oregon State team, a team that was the only one to beat USC this year. I don't care what happens in the Florida-Oklahoma game...I would vote Utah number one no matter what. Only other school with a legit complaint is Texas, who got screwed by the BCS; it should be Texas playing Florida(or Utah for that matter), NOT Oklahoma. As for USC, I hope Mark Sanchez comes back...if not, it could be another uneven year for them offensively...hell, even the defense could be problematic next season given the number of players we are going to lose.

jabe Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 Congrats to the Utes.They certainly outplayed,outcoached,and executed an excellent game plan against Alabama. But at the end of the day,Utah won't have a shot at being numero uno,despite a perfect record.College football needs a playoff.I believe Utah could hang with any team in the country this year.

L 7 Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 As a USC fan Kudos to Utah. I thought `Bama had a chance until the pass interference call where the Utah defender grabbed a wide open reciever by the back of the shirt. If you can`t catch `em cheat. All down hill here from there. I wonder how many Utes went on Bourbon Street last night? They don`t drink do they? Who has played in a record number of Bowl games? I can`t hear you, what did you say? At least you guys still have O.J. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's BYU around the Point of the Mountain in Provo that are the tee-totalers. Congrats to da Utes ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jabe Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I believe the University of Texas can attribute their last minute win over Ohio State last night to one thing,and one thing only. It was their marching band. In case you missed it,the Texas marching band played a medley of Led Zeppelin tunes during their halftime show. This will lead a team to victory most every time.

So that is why they won? I am so depressed today! Such a close game! Texas 24, Ohio State 21. The Buckeyes made a few tacticle mistakes that cost them the game, in my opinion. The foremost was not taking more time for their last touchdown, allowing Texas enough time to score again! Also, running back Beanie Wells was taken out of the game in the last quarter due to minor injury. The Ohio State Band is "the best damn band in the land", even though they did not play any Zeppelin songs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs. Plant Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Also, running back Beanie Wells was taken out of the game in the last quarter due to minor injury.

Don't know what you are referring to, as nothing in the local media about anything but an injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs. Plant Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Don't know what you are referring to, as nothing in the local media about anything but an injury. I like Beanie, don't know how true this might be, maybe just a theory...but heard that Beanies last play of that game, was a good one, wanted to end on a high note, before getting drafted to the NFL. Electricmage is buckeye fan, maybe he'll comment on this. But at what point last night did Beanie suffer a concussion??....I watched the whole game intensely and did not witness this...nor was it spoken of during the game...maybe I just missed it, but I didn't move from my seat. edit to add: just read that he says he had "blurry vision"...but still find it odd that nothing was mentioned last night, esp considering he's such a key player of such an important game.

I am sure it would have been even more impressive for the NFL if he made two touchdowns and ran for two or three more 20 yard gains and perhaps made the winning touchdown, so taking him out to end on a high note at the time that he went out doesn't make any sense. I believe that he did suffer a head injury and they kept observing him to make sure he was OK and they didn't think that he was fit to play without suffering further injury. Edited to say that they did show him on the sidelines being checked over by the trainer and they did keep showing him being under observation. The commentators did say that he was asking to be put back in the game, but the coaches/trainers didn't want him to get hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ohio State band is too classy to do that! The Ohio State band plays "Hang on Sloopy" alot, but no constant drumming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what the deal was, but as his last game, the amount of yards he racked up, and his point proven, I doubt he wanted to risk suffering injury. If and when he goes pro, he'll receive a huge signing bonus. If he suffered a major injury, it would be curtains on his career. Look at Ted Ginn jr. He doesn't need to impress any NFL team. Thus he didn't need to stay in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
