UCLA looking to Beat Trojans and go Bowling

UCLA deserves to play in a bowl game.
It might be tough to convince bowl representatives – since there wasn’t one in attendance at the Rose Bowl on Saturday.
The Bruins became bowl eligible, earning their sixth win in a 23-13 victory over Arizona State. The Bruins were terrific defensively as they forced six turnovers, including an [...]

Coaching Legends Roundtable Discussion about USC

Did Pete Carroll’s assistants leaving for new jobs have an impact on the team?
Don James: I didn’t think so but maybe it’s true.  Pete Carroll is the defensive coordinator.  The offense hasn’t changed, the coaches have changed.  Maybe with them coming in from Denver, they had a difficult time with it.  They weren’t very dynamic.  [...]

Okay Huskies, This isn’t Fun Anymore

Going into today’s game, I already knew a blowout was at hand.  I knew that Oregon State’s offensive and defensive lines were ten times better than the players we could send out there.  But from the game’s opening play, I was startled by just how pathetic the Washington Huskies looked.  There was no fire or [...]

Stanford should now be Ranked ahead of USC

The Cardinal destroyed the Trojans 55-21 last night.  The Trojans were #9 and the Cardinal were #25.  Both teams have three losses now.  Stanford deserves to leapfrog USC in the national rankings.

Remembering Stanford’s colossal upset of USC in 2007

This time nobody is saying that a Stanford victory at USC is impossible. Coach Jim Harbaugh hasn’t remarked that some people think his team could lose 1,000 to zero. The Las Vegas oddsmakers haven’t ridiculed the matchup by making USC a 40-point favorite.
Nobody is laughing at Stanford anymore.
But that was the mood two years ago, [...]

The last time Iowa went to the Rose Bowl….

 
January 1, 1991…..   The Washington Huskies of Don James (9-2) defeat Hayden Fry’s Iowa Hawkeyes (8-3) in the Rose Bowl’s highest scoring Rose Bowl ever 46-34.  UW Quarterback Mark Brunell passes for two touchdowns and runs for two more. Iowa never quits after trailing 33-7 at halftime. Greg Lewis rushes 128 yards in 19 carries for [...]

For the Trojans, the ASU game was “Like the Washington Game”

How bad was USC on third downs at Arizona State?
Try Washington-bad, says Freedomblogging.com.  
So said Trojans coach Pete Carroll, who compared his team’s 2-of-13 effort vs. the Sun Devils to its infamous 0-of-10 vs. the Huskies on Sept. 19.
“It was like the Washington game in a sense,” Carroll said. “You don’t convert on third down, you [...]

Did Neanderthals Have Sex with Modern Humans?

We are currently the only human species alive, but as recently as 24,000 years ago another one walked the earth — the Neanderthals.
These extinct humans were the closest relatives we had, and tantalizing new hints from researchers suggest that we might have been intimately close indeed. The mystery of whether Neanderthals and us had sex [...]
