Man i turned down tickets to this game thinking it would be a blowout.
Arizona is amazingly holding back USC. 3-0 at the half :shocked:
AZ just needs something offensivly...i hope they can keep it close down the stretch...


FINAL 20-3
NOT A SHUTOUT!! (yes thats all us realistic AZ fans were hoping for)

Not impressed with John David Booty. He doesn't seem to have playmaker ability in him.

Oh come on, watch the rest of the game...He threw 6 TDs in his first two starts of his career against teams much better than Arizona...

I've seen both previous games as well. He seems nothing more than an average quarterback that has great team around him. He doesn't hurt the team, but he certainly doesn't add to it either. Maybe he'll get better since he's new, but I haven't seen any flashes of greatness.

USC sucks and i overrated as they are every year. Not only that, but they play ineligible players (*cough* Reggie Bush), too. Why did LSU absolutely demolish Arizona by halftime, and then USC is barely leading vs. Arizona? Yep, there's that proof of USC being #2 again. HAHA.

Faulty logic. Ohio State struggled against PSU, yet Notre Dame demolished PSU.

I think USC has enough talent to win the Championship this year....but it won't be like they did a few years ago. They will battle through a lot of games this season. Not mature enough yet to blow the heads off people. I give them a good shot.

You need to go back and look at the scores and the box scores. Now, after you complete that task, you can apologize for being a complete and total idiot.

Wow, are you incompetent. I thought any football fan knows that box scores don't always tell the story. Yes it turned into a rout, but Penn State was in contention until the very last three minutes of the game.

ESPN description..

No. 1 Ohio State survives Penn State on two late defensive TDs...

Just that quickly -- a span of a little under 12 minutes, the last two TDs separated by less than 90 seconds -- the Buckeyes made the win appear easier than it really was.

But hey if you don't want to believe my words or those of ESPN.. here, go read the words of the players and coaches...

"In the Big Ten, it's always a four-quarter game," Ohio State coach Jim Tressel said. "We won a four-quarter game."

"The game lived up to exactly what it was supposed to be," Ohio State center Doug Datish said. "It was a backyard brawl."

"We were very competitive until the end when we made two major mistakes," [Joe Paterno] said

And if you still want to use your faulty logic with half a game. PSU was up 3-0 at halftime vs. Ohio, while Notre Dame was up 20-0 on PSU at halftime.

wow 20-3...nowhere near as bad a beeting as USC should've given AZ. I thoguht it would have EASILY been up in the 30's or 40's.
So the story of the game: the AZ defence looked like the defence of old. And after being on the field as long as they were they didnt hardly tire at all seemed like.
The offensive unit looks like crap however....at least its not a blowout...and no INTs :D

ummm it was on ESPN2...any cable should've worked...

It was on ABC, not ESPN2.

I was able to catch that last INT since ABC was showing it as bonus coverage.

Every time you post about college football, this is what I expect to see:

"PAC-10 sucks / is overrated / is soft / etc.. "

"SEC rules / is god's gift to football / invented football / cures cancer / etc.. "

and I am never disappointed. :D

It was on both.. They said that the ND/MSU game would be shown on ESPN2 on the west coast.
