Pick The Score

Posted on by

Time for you to pick a score for the USC-Texas game. I made my prediction in this morning’s notes column. Texas rushed for more than 400 yards last week . . . against San Jose State. Their front seven on defense is not great. And USC is on a roll after last week. But could they suffer a post-Stanford letdown? Remember the loss to Boston College came after beating Stanford.

  1. Trojans 34 Shorthorns 24. I think this game might be closer than you would expect. Coming off Stanford, USC is banged up. Defensively missing pieces, Texas will get better every game this year. This is not the team that lost to Maryland in the first week. Fight On!

  2. the 2006 game proved one theory: Petey could never win the big one without Chow-Chow.

    so it’s ironic that after he got rid of Chow-Chow, he loses due to his inexperienced coaches making terrible decisions.

    this game is the gift that keeps ON giving!! of course ESPN has a running loop of Vince strolling into the end zone (like everyone in the stadium and in the nation KNEW he would).

    • Well, if it isn’t Roid, the Hapless, Clueless bruin Beefcake.

      Are you little gutties playing this week or do you just have a deal with the media where nobody brings you up because nobody cares about ucla football? Really, who do you play?

      And Pete Carroll won a Super Bowl while Chow was being fired numerous times. And PC’s record against crappy ucla was 8-1, many of those wins coming without Chow. of course, beating ucla isn’t a big deal anymore. In fact, if SC doesn’t beat ucla, people would think it was fake news.

    • #PunchMeIMustBeDreaming……. Isn’t that what you were saying when Neuheisel, Chow, and Walker were introduced as the bRuin football messiahs?? How did that work out for you Charlie?

    • 47-31-7 USC
      0-10 vs Stanford

      Ruins do well against the botton rung of the Pac and get their butts handed to them by the better teams..

      I could go on.. Texas is 4-3 and well TAM is 3-3…

      While your team plays in petition bowls, we are invited to the granddaddy and bigger bowls..

      We have 11 title to your .5 in football .. We 7 heismans to your 1..

      Texas got luck on a knee.

      Regardless of your ignorance of what real or fake ..

      USC is the Pac.. Without USC the conference would nonexistent..

      USC runs LA..

  9. Its like a heavyweight fight we are bruised and battered a bit and used a lot of energy to bring it to Stanford and Texas is probably more rested and more injury free. Therefore, we are susceptible to another hard fight.

  10. Sam is on his game right out the gate and Tee Martin is aggressive and does not try to be cute, this game will not even be close. Fight On✌✌ 45-14

  11. USC 45 – Fighting Matthew Mcconaugheys 0.

    Only one to do when your are in Texas and that’s get the heck out.

  13. USC 55 Texas 14. Take the overs. A lot of people say Texas gets better every game. I say USC does too. The stable is cut loose to run wild. Sam throws touchdowns at will.

  14. BC had a veteran O line that gave teams like FSU fits. Second, the Trojans traveled across the country for that one which may have been on a Friday night. That said, S C was still in control midway through the 2nd Qrt or so, had built up a lead, then faded and tired from an accumulative effect of all factors involved. That might be some cause for…. nevermind

  15. Maryland 51 – Texas 41 !

    Maryland 30 – Texas 14 [ Halftime ]

    @ Austin/Texas Stadium !

    And that says it all !!!

    Maryland #31 now but not a Top-50 team before the Win !

    Maryland 263 yards Rushing, Texas 98 !

    Home Game = Texas !!!!!

    Coliseum – Saturday 9/16 = Payback “POUNDING” !

    USC 57 – Texas 17

    Why the Trojans “might” not get to 50+ ?

    Clay Helton is a great guy with no inclination to pound a 1st year Texas-Tom-Herman into the ground, therefore pulls back on the reigns and plays 2nd and 3rd teams throughout the 4th Quarter !

    Anything less = Trojan “Choke” !!!

    • Hey, when you play college football in Texas for anyone other than Texas, you have a chip on your shoulder for the Longhorns. Maybe coach Helton might want to hang a big number on the horns. I agree with you about his nature, but he’s closely associated with Houston and there may be several layers of payback for him. He might even want to pay them back for his dad.

  20. USC 45- 28

    The Boston college game was on the road, 3k miles away, three different time zone. You’re comparing an apple and orange
