TD Texas. Maybe we'll get the game we were promised in the second half.

Turf monster got him.

New game: take a drink every time Dama damns USC, its players or its coaches.

Trojans lead!

What a beautiful mf'ing stiff arm.

Here they come...

I agree with moving up the start time, but the "superfluous crap" has been part of the game for over a hundred years. If they started the game at 5pm EST, the traditional start time, this wouldn't be a problem.

I expect the outcome of this game to rest on whether Texas scores here or not.

I now don't care if USC -6.5 comes in or not, with the night I've had. I made a ton of money on the Raptors blowing out Orlando.

How about "woofers?"

USC wins the battle of the bands.

I assume you're looking for something more involved than, "score 5 fewer points than USC or more?"

16-10 is a manageable deficit. Getting within a TD is really big for USC.

OK, pot.

They're getting sacked right out of FG range here.

ground can't cause a fumble. He had possession, hit the ground and the impact caused it to pop out. He needs to make a football move before he has possession. He couldn't do that. He did. He jumped up, caught it in the air, twisted his body, stumbled back and hit the ground. None of which constitutes making a football move after the catch. If he hits the ground, he needs to hang onto the ball; if he stays upright, he needs to make a move to run with the ball.

Incomplete, because he didn't hang on when he hit the ground. That would've been incomplete if a receiver had done that, too.

What happened to the defense that held UCLA to a field goal through three and a half quarters?

Nice recovery by Texas in the second quarter. If they can hold USC at bay in the third, they should have this game won.

TD Texas. Missed tackles aplenty.

Yes, although it doesn't count as an official turnover.

This certainly isn't living up to the "Greatest Game Ever" pregame hype.

Was that even a lateral? It looked suspiciously like a forward pass.

That's a pathetic non-review. To go with the pathetic PAT.
