Let’s just put that to bed. Kill it. Shoot it in the head, forget it, just let it sit there and rot so we can all move past it and just say, yes, yes, USC’s vastly better than Ohio state, and that’s all there is to it, and my that’s quaint and interesting but there’s much more football to come.

Okay. We’re done now. Really. Please, talented players of USC, stop giving quotable quote about how you whipped OSU’s ass so badly you may have changed the climate in Ohio, thus robbing them of their poisonous but semantically significant namesake. Stop saying them, and we’ll stop printing them. (HT: Ted Miller’s Pac-10 blog.)
