Why do you hate Carroll so much?

1) He's a douche bag
2) Running up of scores
3) See #1
4) See #2

actually i agree. sc didnt need this last score.

Why didn't they? That's how you fvck up a game. You play to win the game, not make friends.

some people play with class, not to humiliate another team.

LOL, Ask Minnesota how that playing with class worked out for them?

i am pretty sure after the rose bowl finish last year, he would assume 2 scores will not win him the game

And sometimes you have to make a statement. Everyone in the nation thought that Michigan was the best thing since sliced bread. He's only making sure that no one can come up with excuses after the game.

By the way, 32-11 is hardly running up the score. Those of you saying that it is and the last score is unnecessary, I don't get it. That's a pretty average score.

Going for another score to go up 21 when you're up by 2 TDs in the last half of the 4th is running up the score to me.

A 2-TD lead is not a safe lead with 7 minutes left in the game! Particularly against a #3 ranked team!

 

[aplefka]

Let's complain about that run. He got about 7-8 yards and only needed 2. That's so unsportsmanlike. Why didn't they just get 4th and 1 and punt the ball to be fair?

Right. Michigan's offense has been oh-so potent in this game.

Whatever...I hate both teams, I was just pulling for the one I hate less.

You fail at teh football.

The point is to score AS MANY POINTS AS POSSIBLE.

USC will go down hill when Sanchez takes over.

All I'm saying is a team should be able to stop humiliation for themselves. It isn't the opponents job to insure they aren't going to humiliate the other team.

Regardless of hatred that doesn't constitute you saying what you said. Lack of football knowledge maybe, but not hatred.

Yeah, I seriously don't know why USC hasn't already left the field! I mean, they should let Michigan score a touchdown or two to let them feel better about themselves! And I mean, they can totally rely on Michigan not taking advantage of them by scoring 3 TDs to tie/win the game!

Good sportsmanship goes both ways.

I tried telling them that, but they don't listen to logic lol. 14-point (and sometimes more) comebacks with 7 minutes left happen more often then these folks realize. USC is NOT running up the score. USC would LOVE to take time off the clock, but they can't run worth a damn against Michigan!

Sanchez won't take over. He won't have a chance next year. Yeah Carroll will look at him again but Booty's not gonna magically get terrible during the offseason.

Oh, They were? I don't know. I'm just trying to get some USC fans riled up.

Fvck sportsmanship. This is a classic Rose Bowl rivalry. Michigan did not come to play. They got smacked in the chin. Stop being such a pvssy about it.

yeah, two possesion score with 7 minutes left is nothing. Still a lot of game left at that point and I rarely call it over untill inside of two minutes.

But down 3 scores inside of two minutes? Then I can say it is over.

Lets see, Michigan is capable of throwing a pass for a TD. USC could be 14-points and Booty can fumble and the ball can be scooped up for a return. A punt return for a TD can happen. An interception return for a TD can happen. It's only a 2-score game, FFS.

Anyone who doesn't think comebacks don't happen needs to look at the Chicago @ Arizona game earlier this NFL season.

I've already got them riled up. Some of them sound mad enough that they might actually spill their chardonnay.

 

[monk3y]

The sad fact is that if Michigan had ran the score up on USC everyone would still be saying they deserved the spot in the national championship game.

Plus, USC's game is passing! How do you insure a win? By scoring points to get a good lead! How do you score points? By playing your game!

 

[BlancoNino]

Booty was the number 1 rated QB in his class, so I don't know why any idiot would think USC would have gone downhill without Leinart. I think Booty has done a tremendous job and has shown he can do things that Leinart couldn't. Leinart had a better line and much better running backs for support.

I tried to make this point earlier that USC can't run the ball, therefore they can't milk the clock on a long drive.
