Default Re: USC / Stanford

Two things:
1. This wasn't even the biggest upset of the season (the prize there goes to App St. over Michigan in week one).

This is hugely wrong. Everyone who watches CFB a significant amount knew AppSt could beat 33% of D-1 teams.

The spread was 10 pts bigger on Stanford.

Stanford had lost their prior game, at home, 42-3 to a weaker team than USC.
Their QB had a seizure, and a backup who hadn't played before had to start, on the road, vs a #1 team.

All the USC apologists should give up. Spread of 41-42 vs 31-32 on Mich is all you need to know.

Nothing I can say here... score (yet another) one for the man from Manhattan... me was 100% dead, dead, dead wrong on that one.

Hopefully the somewhat interesting Wolfers article in that post saves my (completely non-existent) reputation somewhat [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img].

I said the same thing before him; do I score one too? [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]
