Assuming USC beats UCLA this weekend, expect a lot of this until the Rose Bowl...

Bill Plaschke of the LA Times (who, if you've ever watched Around the Horn or read any of his stuff before, is absolutely awful):

Sorry if I don't feel sorry for USC. Guess what? YOU LOST!!! Get over it. You don't deserve better. What an unreal sense of entitlement.

Just do yourself a favor and don't read this stuff

It’s like reliving Pat Forde’s PSU stinks crap.

Don't worry about this

I had to read this crap all before the rose bowl, and we settled it on the field.

45-35

At least Mandel is calling it an “Intriguing Jan 1 showdown”

USC is a 30 point favorite

Give or take from a couple random places I check. I don’t know how credible that line is but it sounds about right.

30 points?

You mean over UCLA?

Right, should have clarified.

I think USC-PSU, in LA, is more like USC -7…but we’ll see.

LA bandwagoners

I live in SoCal. It’s not a sports area. There are some serious fans, but mostly bandwagon fans. These are the type of fans who show up late to a game then leave in the 4th quarter.

I’m perfectly happy with USC pumping itself up. If USC doesn’t take PSU seriously, they’ll lose. PSU isn’t the B10 runner up or a 1-D arena league offense side show. USC should be able to win by a TD if they focus, but if they have the same attitude as Leinert against Texas (we lost, but we’re still better), they will not walk away with the victory.
