Big 10 Weak In NCAAF 2007 | ogdocvato's Blog

Many fools have cited tradition in the Rose Bowl matchup for Jan. 1, 2008 - USC vs. Illinois. The fact is that the Big 10 has never been weaker than in 2007. At the end of the 2006 NCAA football season Michigan and Ohio State were unmasked as lightweights by USC and Florida respectively. In 2007 the weakness in the Big 10 continues. We Trojan fans are bored with the Big 10 teams with the exception of Ohio State who will play in the BCS championship game on Jan. 8, 2008. The "Trojan Nation" wants to see our USC football team take on one of the elite teams from the SEC. Pac 10 vs. Big 10 Rose Bowl tradition is outdated in the new BCS system! The new rivalry should be Pac 10 vs. SEC in NCAA football - especially after LSU coach Les Miles shot his mouth off and called the Pac 10 weak and USC's strength of schedule "weak". College football sportswriters call the SEC the nation's best conference. Well, the nation's best conference should not be so afraid to play USC in a bowl game. Georgia would rather play Hawaii, and Florida would rather play the "toothless" Michigan Wolverines. Face reality SEC players, coaches, and fans; you guys all have big mouths, but when it comes to stepping out on the gridiron with the mighty USC Trojans you lack cajones and intestinal fortitude.

Heheheh, you USC fans are quite disillusionned.

You first talk about the traditionalism in the Rose Bowl as stupid, then you talk about the SEC is affraid to play USC? Is all that Cali-weed going to your short term memory?

The Rose Bowl really could've had UGA before Illinois, but they passed that up for Illinois. Why? TRADITION. I'm citing it b/c it's a fact.

Do you think UGA wants to go up against another gimmicky offense that is chomping at the bit to beat someone real? No. The game's a lose/lose situation for dawg nation (if we win, we should've beat 'em good b/c they're a small team, but if we lose, it's very shameful). We'd rather play USC in a relative home game for the Trojans and prove to everyone that UGA is a title contender for 2008.

Every football fan in Athens, Ga is cursing the Rose Bowl and the BCS.

How 'bout 'em

I bet you won't even respond to my comment either.

Your conference shares spinelessness with you since they won't schedule an SEC opponent in a BCS game.
