USC GOUGES AWAY AT OTHER HIGHLIGHT VIDEOS

The announcement of the Fulmer Cup championship is coming up shortly, but in the meantime here is a reminder for college football fans everywhere that no matter what you are doing, Pete Carroll will come along, do it better, and then hug you before kindly challenging you to be a better person and leaving you smelling like puppies, victory, and the spice of fulfilled human potential. (Also you will be five pounds lighter, since Pete Carroll is currently under review by the FDA as a powerful herbal weight loss supplement. CALL NOW.)

We have no idea why the Song Girls manage to stay so tastefully cheescakey. The skirts are short, but still white and pleated like vintage fifties skirts hiked up to sixties length, the sweaters form-fitting but not wetsuit tight, the women picked for legs three clicks long and chipper smiles, the very embodiment of what the pomaded hairdos at Sterling Cooper would draw up as the peach-slice smiled ideal of the USC cheerleader. Set it all to the Pixies "Gouge Away," and it somehow gels with the sight of blue chip footballers sucking in passes on effortless fades and knocking years off the lives of opposing, less glamorous players.

College football, mon amour. Ça commence ce soir!

USC song girls make me tingly…and I went to Cal undergrad and UCLA grad. Game recognizes game though.
Go Bears!

I’ve always hoped someone would make an awesome highlight reel set to that song…but I never expected that.

These girls will look even better with tears as big as horse turds running down their cheeks and soaking their sweaters after the men of Troy are beaten in Columbus. I also look forward to the one Song Girl cheering for tOSU.

A hundred cocktails to anyone who can tell me what year of the NCAA Football game that song is in. It is going to drive me nuts and I don’t feel like breaking out every old version to find out. And, yes I know i paid more attention to the song than the girls. Sue me.

Sorry to double post but I just noticed that the ad on the page is for Trojan2Go condoms.

Insert USC/condom/OhioSt joke here.

I’ve tried to understand the allure of said anachronistic song girls…something about the dichotomy between an apparently chaste yet sexy, dated yet newly defined outfit wrapped around the body of a siren with a face intent on assuring one that her whole world is in orbit around the one receiving the smile…of course, that would be me…and every other individual who happens to observe them…nope, no answers here…

Why are they so cheesecakey? Because they’re hot ass college girls in short skirts?

You can’t understand the allure of a “chaste, yet sexy… siren with a face intent on assuring one that her whole world is in orbit around the one receiving the smile”?

USC is doomed this year. I mean they lost 7 day one picks in the NFL draft. You can’t recover from that. Oh wait, that was the 2008 draft. Well, they must have sucked last year then, right? Gaaah. Lifes a bitch when everybody is a five star recruit.

Barkley aside, just something folks in Columbus may want to ponder on a bit before predicting a beat down. I guess I figured getting fisted last year would have left a more lasting impression.

Hate the Trojans, but just sayin….

Yes!!!!!!!!!!Dept:

A thousand drinks or whatever to OS and the missus for the video of the most awesome of awesome babes of college footbaaawwwww.

Crabby-Apple: USC did not do too shabby recently against your slow-pokes from THEohio-state-university……I hope tOSU puts up a good game, but I am pretty sure you will be the one crying and not the USC babes after the game..

brief observation – the Pixies are just fucking awesome. I’m talking “mouth slightly parted-my brain has stopped functioning properly in the presence of your awesomeness” awesome

SKLM – It sure looks like ComPete is pointing toward next year already. Starting Barkley this year positions $C for a run the next 2-3 years after this one. Too many injuries, grade suspensions, etc… I’m sure your boys will still be good, but it shapes up to be the odd year where the stars are aligned for Cal to finally come thru while the Traveler tends to his oats. The best hope is that you still make a BCS game and beat up on the SEC for once!

by Crabapple Buck on Sep 3, 2009 5:54 PM EDT reply actions  

SKLM Responds Dept:

Crabapple: Carroll does not waste a year, he just reloads each time…quick three points:

1. Offense: Barkley is starting because Corp is still hurt. But, it won’t really matter because all he has to do is hand it off to one of four super-talented backs, or just fake the hand-off and chuck it over the fat guys to wide open full-backs or tight ends. When tOSU tries to defend the chuck-and-duck, Barkley has the arm to hit the open man deep. Man, I can see this happening already.

2. Defense: And, how will tOSU win if they cannot score? Three (3) measly points scored by your boys last time and probably only a few more will be scored this time.

3. tOSU Compliments: Gotta give your team compliments for scheduling real competition, not like most SEC teams that schedule weak teams that would be beaten by most Junior Colleges.

SKLM -

Sophomore Terrelle Pryor > Todd Boeckman. Particularly a Boeckman with no Beanie Wells behind him. Barkley threw 18 ints to HIGH SCHOOL DBs last year. This will be a wake-up call in a hostile environment. Another flash for you – $C lost some defenders to the NFL. As a fan of football, I’ll want to see this one played out. I suspect I’ll see a different result in Columbus.

An ND alumnus coworker of mine attended the 2006 Notre Dame – USC game. He had the good fortune to sit next to a salty old guy who was ND class of 1950. This guy was pissed to see ND losing a relatively lopsided game. Bear in mind that the class of ’50 never witnessed a Notre Dame loss as students, so they have impossibly high expectations. When my coworker tried to cheer him up by pointing out, "Well, at least we’re near the Song Girls," the old guy just growled, "Whores."

I love grizzled, angry old people.

Defender of the Right Dept:

#15: Crab man: Pryor cannot throw, will be easy to defend, and hopefully, he will meet Taylor Mays a few times on the pitch…gridiron…whatever…Interceptions? Prediction: Pryor will throw more than Barkley.

#16: HudiB: “…ND losing a relatively lopsided game”???? USC won by 20 points, 44-24. I guess it is “relativley” when the blowout is less than 30 points….

@14 – the trend of SEC schools scheduling OCC cup cakes is ending, at least on the Bayou, to wit: we’ll be in the PAC-10 in two days. We’ve got WVU (2010-11), TCU (2013-14) and ASU (2015-16) already in the hopper. Dates with OU and NC State are also being negotiated. We want to play USC. We want to play Texas. Lawd, do we want tOSU again. I can assure you that NOBODY down here wants to play Tulane or North Texas, and certainly nobody wants to open as a 10 TD favorite in their first game /cutting glance at Florida/

love pleated skirts and sweaters but its the oregon cheerleaders who make my ol blue jeans rise.

That video did a good job of showing why any kid who has a chance to play for USC and didn’t grow up as a fan of another big time program is likely to end up at USC.’

I think USC and tOSU is going to be a very good game this year. I’m sure Pete isn’t writing off the game by any means. Even with a frosh QB, there is still the OL and the backs to carry the day. As long as Barkley does not give the ball away the game will be very close.

As far as the SC defense, the guys who left last year were monsters, but it took monsters like Rey and Cushing to keep guys like Galippo and M. Smith from starting. If Mays does not get hurt and Griffin plays up to his potential, USC’s defense could be just as good as last year’s version.

If USC were a fortune 500 company, They would be General Electric. Maybe a down year once in a while, but a solid bet for the long term. I can’t see where the two would ever become irrelevant.

by Brian on Sep 4, 2009 12:01 PM EDT reply actions  

@17 – I didn’t watch that game and didn’t want to bother looking up the score, hence the adverb. Besides, a 20-point margin is only relatively lopsided compared to, say, USC’s win last year or Notre Dame’s in 1966.
