  1. It’s pretty undeniable that the Pac-12 is relatively weak this season, but all I care about is our team beating the Buckeyes tomorrow evening. After all, we don’t exist for the conference. The conference exists for us.

    • Bull. Tell that to Stanford, Washington, Oregon, or any other school that has beaten SC down over the last few years. Tell it to the stats sheets, the record books, the bowl history, the NCAA sanctions, the cuckoo-crazy SC coaching carousel, the diehard fans who know the difference between a Trojan Delusional and a Real Fan.

      • I could give a rip about the other 11 teams – win or cry and that is what the bulk of this pathetic conference has done this bowl season….wah wah….wonder why we get no serous consideration?

        Defeat OH St. tomorrow night and move on from the other 11 also rans.

      • What? Come again? SC has been beaten down? I take it you’re talking about your own little gutties of Wimpwood, correct? Hey, my hearty congrats for your absolutely pathetic football team that hilariously overachieved this season putting up a 6-7 record with the biggest college football pretender ever named Rosey in the middle of the pocket. Nice goin’, idiot!

        • The ruin coaching carousel of the last 20 years has given them Tubalardo, Duh-rell, Skippy and Mora. 4 overpaid losers.

        • SeagullTrojan, thanks for the fly-by. SPLAT! Of course, you missed the point. It sailed wide right. Only a drunken fool would assume anyone who sees SC football for what it is, post-PC, is a ucla bruin fan. Pretty desperate move, old man.
          Please pull your head out of the clouds to look at how “regal” the Trojans have been in recent memory, with some of the biggest losses in the history of the program to ASU, Alabama, Notre Dame, Oregon…with exactly ONE PAC12 championship…with zero Top 4 finishes…with scandal and embarrassment at every turn…with a conference that no longer fears SC, but indeed ridicules it for squandering the talents of its players, underachieving, and producing fans who still think their program is a world-beater.
          Trey again, Hecuba…

      • Washington is phoney looking at their non-conference schedules. They only play conference teams really and, since the PAC-12 is an lacky compared to the other conferences, who are we trying to fool anyway.

  2. Hey at least we got 9 teams in bowl games. Who else can say that? Nobody. #conferenceofbowleligibleteams.

  3. The biggest disappointment of the PAC 12 games has been the quarterback play. I know a couple of starters have been out, but the QB’s, normally a PAC 12 strength, have looked terrible! Hope Sam comes through tomorrow!

  4. Maybe it was a blessing to have two teams playing at the same time. That way the rest of the country could only see one Pac12 team lose.

  5. Let me see if I have the following right:

    Wash St. 30 – bozo u 27
    Ohio St. 48 – Mich. St 3
    Mich. St. 42 – Wash. St 17

    Coach Meyer has had 3 weeks to prepare and stoke O St. furnace with bozo u kindling. So………

    Ohio St 49 – bozo u no TD’s.

    • And where might shoplifters u be? What? Completely out of sight and irrelevant, correct? Do you even have a football team, JackOv?

      • little gutties specialize in losing seasons. Amazing, huh? Consecutive losing seasons and another fired coach who took ucla to the cleaners while Honker Rosen disappeared again with a brain injury and a grin on his face.

  6. And, overall, these a just not that good of bowls to begin with. How Scott & Co. can’t get the Pac-12 into better bowls is beyond me. Stir the pot up and play more than Big10 teams (especially at the top of the ticket). I really don’t care about the Pac’s 3rd team playing the 4th Big10 team or whatever. Allow the teams to travel. Get a Florida bowl or two in the mix. It would do wonders for recruiting.

    • It would be great if Larry Scott could arrange for the Pac 12 #2 teams to play in a New Years Day bowl.

      • And, for me, PLEASE no Big10 teams. Ugh! Let our teams play around the country and no inside the conference footprint. The best thing about going to a Big10 school is you do get to travel for the holidays.

      • The PAC-12 schools have to earn playing in better bowls as well as the fans have to show they will travel to attend bowl games. Pac-12 has been poor in both qualifications. It all starts with the school’s president…. does he want a winner or does he just want to hold out his hand out for the TV money. Most presidents don’t care and I think it is very obvious.

        • I have a feeling the Pac 12 college presidents are very happy with Larry Scott making lucrative TV deals for these lesser bowls. They don’t care about prestige, tradition or exposure.

    • The Alamo isn’t a good bowl? Really? And what makes you think the PAC’s 4th best team deserves anything better than the Holiday Bowl? The “better bowls” are reserved for the better teams… with fewer than 3 loses, or with top 10 SOS.

    • If the Pac-12 teams can’t even compete in the crummy bowls they are in, which bowls would you prefer to see them in? Nobody thinks Stanford is gonna beat Auburn, do they?

    • Who do you think Larry Scott works for? The alumns need to put heat on their school’s presidents to support and demand better of their football programs. 1/3 of the schools in this conference don’t deserve being in division 1. Max Nikias wouldn’t survive as USC president if he allowed the USC football program to be mediocre. Why don’t the others demand as such?

      • Most Pac 12 college presidents were nerds growing up who hate the football programs but see it as a necessary evil to separate cash from alumni.

      • It is to them. Gender politics is more important to our BOT’s than national championships. And I’m not joking when I say that. To them, a national championship in womens beach volleyball is just as important(and maybe more so) as a natty in football.

  7. P12 was really weak this year.

    As usual, it’s up to USC to bear the standard. Without USC, P12 is bereft of a true national power. And the Huskies aren’t all the way back yet. but I give them a good shot at PSU (the heartbreak team).

  8. Pac12 is down this year no question. With some of the coaching changes happening I believe the quality of play will get better and USC will be challenged. Still can’t figure out why Colorado is in the conference.

      • As things turned out, Pac would be better off without the added dead weight and no conference championship game.

      • I remember Larry Scott screwing up bringing in Texas & Oklahoma and wound up bringing 2-lackys instead to try to save face. And wow, how has our conference benefited by that.

    • Rarely does the PAC-12 send another team to a New Year’s day bowl beside the Rose Bowl because they don’t earn it. Plain & simple. But the West Coast side of Bowls don’t play on New Year’s day. Only the east coast bowls do. You expect PAC-12 fans to travel across the country on New Year’s day? Hahahah

  9. Stanford got hosed by the refs. Anyone who knows me knows I hold Stanford in extreme low reguard, but it would take a blind man to not see the holding on the scoring plays for TCU and “fumble” that wasn’t. Illegal blocks in back springing the punt return.
    Sure Stanford earned some of their loss but them there Texican refs hrelped.

  10. Is it only the PAC-12 coaches care about beating eachother and screw all the other games? You wonder…. USC should think about going independent if there is no pride in this conference and I really doubt the presidents really care by their lack of support vs what the other conferences expect from their presidents.

  11. I would like to agree with you only the Pac-12 been left out of the playoffs more times than the other conferences.

  12. USC isn’t a playoff caliber team and probably never will be under this staff. In a way it helps that P12 is worse than the MAC, our record looks better than the actual play. But it hurts in terms of pressuring to build a better program or in learning to compete. Not for nothing, we’re also the worse hoops conference as well.

    Larry Scott is no good for this conference. He didn’t have support or the will to pull off his major project of expansion to Texas several years ago. He was the puppy of the Big 10 Commish, and turned down the great offer by the ACC to form a partnership for scheduling and a network. His TV deal was a pipe dream, and now is the worst among the majors. He just doesn’t know what he’s doing and doesn’t seem to care; and he doesn’t have the disposition. It’s hurting the conference badly.
