I'm not trying to fan any crazy upset flames; it's still in the first half. But the Bulldogs just scored to make it 21-10.

I actually hope they don't beat them so UCLA can down them in their last game of the season. And yes, I honestly think that can be done.

BAH.

Three times consecutive national champion (and would have been three times consecutive winner of Mike Tranghese's Plaything (by the way, does dude still get to chair the BCS after Big East is kicked out in a year or three?) if not for that Oklahoma bulla).

Suck it, Westwood.

And can't you enjoy it enough having, what, eleven national titles in basketball with the Wizard. And one more since, courtesy the Lizard. Can't you....

The University of Second Choice (couldn't get into Stanford) will lose on Dec. 3. They've been hanging on all season... their secondary will be picked apart by Olson.

Now, on the larger question... you really prefer a tract home in Mission Viejo to a vintage Spanish revival in Westwood? Now that places you...

LSU in '03 was no bulla. You'll never convince me that they wouldn't have taken down USC that year.

Funny you mention Stanford, rejection, and USC... Brother did his undergrad in Troy, applied to seven grad. schools (for physics), got into six of seven. Cornell, UIUC, UCSB (where he ended up), USC, Cal Tech, and MIT accepted him; Stanford was his lone rejection. Seems, then, that if rejection at Palo Alto is the criterion for anything, it is such for intellectual prowess.

Yup.
