It’s time to say enough is enough about the football program at USC, because really they don’t deserve the hype they get year in and year out and here’s why. I cannot tell you how stoked I get when USC loses to a crap team in their Cupcake Pac 10. Unfortunately the problem is, you can’t expect them to stay down on the rankings because their seems to be this bias towards them. It just so happens that if they played in a real conference with half the teams in the top 15, yes I’m talking about the SEC or the Big 12. It’s really easy to stay in the top 10 when you play absolutely no one! I realize USC played #5 Ohio State, however the Big 10 is just one step above the Pac 10 and I’m going to throw it out there, the Buckeyes won’t even get to the Rose Bowl.
My main beef here is that teams that have to play top 25 teams almost every week shouldn’t drop as far in the polls. Georgia for instance lost to #8 Alabama, and now they are #10, whereas USC lost to Oregon State who is unranked. The system is flawed and it panders to teams in easy conferences, which is why OSU made it to two national championship games and got whooped on both times. I actually wouldn’t mind seeing USC in the national championship game and seeing them in the position of OSU this year. Maybe that would prove that it doesn’t matter how ’stacked’ you are, all that matters is whether you are playing real competition or not.
