Clock Issues
USC's problem with the clock operator at Stanford Stadium is not the first time the Trojans experienced problems in Palo Alto. In 2001, USC played the Cardinal in basketball and on a key play guard Casey Jacobsen took an inbounds pass with four seconds on the shot clock and hestitate and dribbled and scored even though observers believed at least seven seconds elapsed before Jacobsen shot the ball.
Excuses are for losers..Jacobson scored and the Kicker made the FG. Fight On and shut the H$ll Up.
Who runs the clock? A Pac 10 official, or a Stanford employee?
Little Lane needs to hire Sir Alex Ferguson to stand in the technical area and demonstratively point at his watch.
The home team hires its own clock official.
It is no excuse why USC lost. However, the Pac-10 should investigate, interview the clock official to explain the errors, and discipline if necessary. It should further verify that this chicanery has never happened before on the farm.
Typical No Cal liberal. The ends justify the means.
While at the game there were several changes made by the officials to the offical clock. I don't know if the timer errored on the side of Stanford, but at any rate he/she was terrible. This is the PAC 10 not Palo Alto High. Maybe he was a legacy timekeeper.
By the way, my son was clobbered by a Stanford fans poster as he flung it, another Stanford fan stuck a poster in my face from behind, and a third hit my wife in the head while following the TMB out the tunnel after the game. So much for the gentile Stanford fan, must be the Hairball influence.
