1. Actually, Auburn won last night.

I know it's not part of the reality based community, but I believe Auburn is the National Champion!

[sniffa]

7. you're dead wrong

the utes are the champs.

utes

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

11. I dunno bout all that, but I'd love to see them in a 4-team playoff.

[Lostnote03]

30. + one___+one__+one!!!!

[LDS Jock]

32. the Utes kicked some butt

against Pittsburgh. I wanna playoff!

[Willy Wonka]

2. Eh. Both of 'em suck.

I'm hoping it'll wind up in a 14 quarter tie before they call it quits.

[hollywood926]

3. I can't stand USC....

And I live in L.A. I am hoping that a)Oklahoma kicks their asses OR b) If USC wins, Auburn stakes a phony claim to half the national championship like USC did last year, thus minimizing USC's win.

Memo to Trojans - LOUISIANA STATE won the national championship last year. Not YOU!

4. You are probably jealous of its great location

and all those hard working students slaving away at perhaps a better chance in life for themselves.

:bounce:

Two + years ago I was in LA and went down to have a run around the Coliseum......what a sh*thole and I didn't get to see even ONE blonde co-ed.

[fishwax]

5. Hard working students like poor Paige Laurie

:o :evilgrin:

[underpants]

6. Only one more night of Alias and Elecktra commercials

*sigh*

[XNASA]

8. OU in a walk.

If the Sooners were in the NFC, they'd be in the playoffs this year.

[underpants]

10. I don't know about that

Sooner or later the Vikings won't choke against someone.

[webjamn]

36. The Sooners

couldn't even hold the 49ers jocks if they were in the NFC

[fishwax]

9. boomer sooner

I'll be pulling for OU, but only because I'm an alumnus, a current student, and a huge fan.

I think OU will win, but it could be a great game ... two great QBs, two great running backs, two great defenses, two great coaches, etc.

[Beer Snob-50]

12. Oklahoma is one of those teams

I love to see lose. I would hate to see what would happen if they played Notre Dames schedule year in and year out.

[0007]

14. OU plays a lot weak teams as does Texas.

I'll root for any blue state team over a red state team any day.

USC 38 - OU 10

[fishwax]

18. The state may be blue, but the school has a pretty conservative reputation

The University of Oklahoma, on the other hand, is in the reddest of red states, but is a bastion of ... well, not quite liberalism ... but relative to the state, the campus is pretty blue.

So I'll be cheering for a sorta liberal oasis in a desert of red against a bright red blemish in blue california. }(

[LDS Jock]

33. well, damn.. you are a prophet

but thats the halftime score

[fishwax]

16. OU's schedule strength is usually comparable to ND

and is often in the top 10 or 20 in the nation. They can't help their conference opponents, but their out of conference schedule usually includes a marquee matchup (vs. Oregon this year, though Oregon wound up with a subpar season), a strong mid-major team (Bowling Green) and some more-or-less cannon fodder (Houston). This year there schedule strength is probably a little lower than Notre Dame's, but in past years it has been comparable.

[greatauntoftriplets]

13. Go Sooners!!!

Jason is much cuter than David Spade. What a comparison...

:puke:

[underpants]

15. I heard that from a SEC fan

Florida fan actually I think he was upset that Stoops stayed in Oklahoma.

[Droopy]

17. Hot damn. I get to watch the game tonight.

The boss said I wasn't needed today.

Now who should I root for? I usually root for the underdog when I'm watching a game between teams that I don't follow closely. So who's the underdog?

[underpants]

22. OU is the underdog just because they are ranked lower

but I have no idea what the "spread" is.

[Droopy]

23. OK, then. Oklahoma it is. Go whatever the Okies are!

[underpants]

24. OU Sooners....Boomer Sooners-they have their own wagon too

[fishwax]

26. The spread started at USC by three

but has been closing considerably in the last week. Today they printed a 1.5 point spread in the local paper, but I heard on the radio earlier this afternoon that the spread was now even.

[Zomby Woof]

19. &#@&# Oklahoma!

Go Pac-10! Gotta go with the Trojans on this one.

[RagingInMiami]

20. I can't stand Oklahoma

Cause they seem to be one of those teams that get the royal treatment from the pollsters, year in and year out. So even though I'm not much of a Pac Ten fan, I'm going with the Trojans.

But just wait until next year.

[sasquatch]

29. "Wait till next year"!?!?

What, are you guys planning to lose to Ohio State again?
:evilgrin:

Ohio State vs Miami: Battle of the purple states!

[Bertha Venation]

21. GO PAC-10

Go 'SC!

[Twillig]

31. RE: "Go Pac-10"

I'ts a damn shame that Cal had injured receivers AND went into the tank against Texas. They could have slammed the door on the dumbass Shit-talkers that are always dissing the Pac-10.

I was really surprised that ASU came through. :headbang:
The Beav's own the Irish. :spank:
UCLA screwed the pooch as expected. :dunce:
Cal..... got ownt. :wtf:
SC bringing the hammer down at the half.

[ScaRBama]

25. I think Oklahoma is the better team.....

Oklahoma 30
USC 20

[hollywood926]

27. kick for those about to watch n/t

[sasquatch]

28. USC is drubbing Oklahoma

Their running through the Oklahoma defense like Prune Juice through diearria sufferer.

[Forkboy]

34. Can a team drop from #2 to unranked?

Because the way OU is playing they sure deserve it.

What a rout.

[fishwax]

35. Yeah, this is pretty ugly

and hard to take as a sooner fan. :cry:

I honestly don't think Oklahoma is as bad as they have played tonight, but USC is pretty clearly the best team in the land.

[Z_I_Peevey]

37. I can't look anymore.

I can barely stand to listen to the play-by-play.

[fishwax]

38. I feel your pain

(and it just got worse. Oy.)

I had to come to DU to get a little relief from the misery of the game and the OU message boards right now. Sigh.

[frylock]

39. hey there all you haters!!

EFF ALL Y'ALL!!

Even after this absolute ASS kicking, SC still won't get the respect they deserve. They are the best, they were the best last year, and you can make the argument that they were the best in 2002. So EAT IT!!

w00t!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
