Is this where I resurrect my ``USC will not win a national championship without Norm Chow'' line?

About Inside USC
Scott Wolf has covered USC for the Daily News since 1996. A USC
graduate, he covered his first Trojan game in 1984 for
the Daily Trojan. Scott is known as the "scourge of the Internet
message boards," according to radio host Petros Papadakis. Despite this
moniker, there's no truth to the rumor he takes pleasure in
antagonizing the "Internet geeks."

The Donkey doesn't believe Scott needs to resurrect any lines on Chow. The Donkey wonders if Scott saw the BYU-UCLA game.
I wonder if Donkey saw the 2004 Nat'l Championship game? We're definitely not talking apples to apples with what Norm has vs what Sark has. You can have great scheme..but if you don't have athletes to execute it, it's difficult...compound that with a 3rd string QB...I don't think anyone expects much out of UCLA.
It appears that even with a bye week, and probably knowing what OSU's defense was going to do (try to stuff the run and depend on their secondary), that SC's stable of athlete's & talent still couldn't get it done or match OSU's intensity.
For a guy who is suppose to be a reporter first and foremost, you are sure getting too much pleasure from this lost.
Wolfie, you're becoming a joke! It's one thing to discuss what happen, but to do it in such a sarcastic manner, you lose all credibility.
USC got out-coached and out-played last night, but you don't even look at those points objectively. You, instead, have to add your snide remarks to the conversation, which only feeds your ego.
Is this where I resurrect my ``Scott Wolf is a douchebag" line?
The Donkey would like to remind anyone that Chow had the same talent facing TN as it had facing BYU...where was the genius?
The Donkey would also like to remind Scott that Chow does not coach Defense.
Come on Scott, even you didn't see this coming! Yes, you said USC will lose at least two games this year, but you picked USC to win 45-17.
That game was lost because of the poor play of the Defense. That was supposed to be our strength.
This Chow mania is so stupid.
Let's review some history.
2005- Lane Kiffin cannot bring home the NC
2006- Lane Kiffin loses to UCLA.
2007- Sarkisian loses to Stanford
2008- Sarkisian loses to Oregon State
What happened in 03 and 04?
Last night was an absolutely embarrassing. It's like the Yankees losing to the Royals in the World Series. Play calling was terrible. If we were efficient on offense, it would not have mattered what happened on defense. How do you go 3 and out on your first 2 possessions?
Frankly, Sarkisian is still a student of Coach Chow and he is a beneficiary of what Coach Chow was able to build.
I was frustrated at the lack of adjustments on the offensive side. It reminded me of Kiffin not being able to adjust to UCLA in 06.
All I can say is you thought talent alone would overcome anything.
You had a clear path to the NC and you flat out blew it.
