USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2005 If Houston was going to entertain the thoughts of trades, meaning they dont care for Bush (which I know they probably have some kind of interest in), they'd want someone who is a bit better than their incumbent HB starter, Domanick Davis. Or they'd want someone that could fill a need like an OL or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Report post Posted December 13, 2005 I could see a team like Detroit trying to move up to get Leinart or Green Bay trading Ahman Green trying to do it. That's about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2GOLD 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2005 You give the Texans things they want and you can get that first pick. Give them a top notch NFL lineman, your first rounder and maybe third round pick and they'll give up the one. Houston doesn't need Bush, they have a back who can be an electric NFL back if he has a line. Hell, he's getting over 100 yards with that shit line. And I'm sorry, but how is saying Reggie Bush won't be LT or Alexander or Barry Sanders a KNOCK on Reggie Bush? Sanders is in the hall and the other two are on their way. I think Bush would be more than pleased to be mentioned in the same sentence with those guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jorge Gorgeous 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2005 Yada I didn't really spend a lot of time in that post talking about Oklahoma, so I don't see how I made them out to look bad. I just said UCLA creamed them, which they did. You can't say something like "Well if it werent for the turnovers..." because, as I'm sure you know, turnovers are part of the game. Its like saying "If USC hadnt scored those touchdowns, Oregon would have had them." I don't think Rhett Bomar is going to be good enough to win a bowl game this year, hes had all year and he only piled up 9 touch downs. Dennis Dixon has 5 in splitting time over the last three games (he has 6 total, but one was against Montana and it didn't really matter.) Oklahoma has gotten the ball rolling lately, and they looked good against Ok. State, but Oregons offense has been getting into gear with a new QB as well. Also, as nogoodnick pointed out, Jordan Kent is stupid fast. Faster than anyone Oklahoma has played. This is a guy who has a realistic chance of making an NFL roster, an NBA roster or the Olympics. Anyway, I think its going to be a good game, but Oregon is angry, and they can pass all day. I still feel like its their game to lose. PS - U of O is NOT Cal. Oklahoma is NOT Texas Tech.

Hogan Made Wrestling 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2005 I think Oregon is going to be "up" for this game so that next year's game in Eugene is the rubber match with Oklahoma, rather than a game the Ducks need to win to avoid getting swept by the Sooners for three straight seasons.

Hogan Made Wrestling 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2005 Also, whichever of the Texans and 49ers gets the 2nd overall pick should be really happy, because then they can take D'Brickashaw Ferguson like they should and not have all the fans and pundits jump all over them for it.

If Bomar continues to improve and they can get a senior season out of Adrian Petersen then they could be a serious threat in two years. I agree with that. I honestly though don't see the personnel on this team that we had in 2003. In 2003 if White hadn't gotten injured and Mike Stoops hadn't taken the Arizona job I think they would've easily finished the season with the national title. But I don't see a lot on this team outside of AD that compares to that team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hogan Made Wrestling 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2005 My main reason for wanting to see Oklahoma lose their bowl games is now gone, namely for the next Monday when the Coach would wear the other team's jersey and spend half of RAW arguing with JR about the football game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damaramu 0 Report post Posted December 13, 2005 Well Stoops was 3-1 in bowls and had a national title in his second season. Then it all fell apart the last two years. Two years ago b/c the driving force of his offense should've by all rights been in a wheel chair and the guy that fired his defense up was taking another coaching position. Mike Stoops didn't coach in the Big XII title game or the first half of the Sugar Bowl and OU got lit up. He got on headset in the second half of the Sugar Bowl and LSU had like one first down. Then in his second straight bowl loss he basically had a team with no heart going up against a much better team. I mean I still think USC would've won if OU had been playing with heart but it wouldn't have been as bad. The Sugar Bowl I think could've been a deal where if they played 10 times then OU wins 5 or 6. The Orange Bowl was a deal where if they played 10 times then USC wins 9.

Guest Leelee Report post Posted December 13, 2005 Yes. Now I know that you're just biased against Mr. Booty. He needs to transfer. John David Booty sounds better as the starting QB for Alabama. Or Auburn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Poinsettia -Fourth different bowl game based out of San Diego: Holiday, Harbor Bowl ('47-'49), San Diego Christmas Classic ('21-'22). Forth Worth -Houston has lost five straight bowl games (last win 1980 Garden State Bowl, 35-0 vs. Navy). Hawaii -First time Hawaii is not playing in it.

Alamo -Typically a blow out or super close: Five times decided by 20+ points, four times by three points or less in the games 12 years.

Music City -3rd time in four years that Minnesota is in it. Sun -Only the Rose Bowl has been around longer (Orange and Sugar started same year in 1935).

Guest Report post Posted December 13, 2005 GMAC -Former game MVPs: LaDanian Tomlinson, Byron Leftwich (twice), Ben Roethlisberger. That's a sign that Omar Jacobs may make it big. Also, it's really stupid how the bowl system completely disregards the midwest. Would it really hurt to put a bowl game in Cleveland or Chicago? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
