so they're cheerleaders but pretentious?

Well, they're not really cheerleaders. They don't do anything like jump or flip or whatever. They're actually primarily a dance squad. So it wouldn't make sense to call them cheerleaders. But, now that I think about it, Song Girls doesn't make much sense either.

reminded me of this from TMQ:

USC note: I've now seen the fabled Song Girls in person, and can report that while they are every bit as gorgeous as advertised, they didn't seem to have much in the way of dance or cheer routines. During the game the Song Girls mostly dipped at the knees and waved two fingers in the USC salute. "Unlike other college cheer teams, the Song Girls are primarily a dance squad. The Song Girls hold themselves to a higher standard than that of many squads. They constantly work to insure their choreography is innovative and exciting," USC claims. Innovative choreography? Their performance was nothing close to the complex hip-hop done by the Washington, Philadelphia and Tampa NFL cheerleaders, among other squads; little different from the sort of abbreviated, simple kick steps good high school cheerleading units use. The Song Girls are just college kids and are, one hopes, cheering on the side while spending most of their time studying. But why claim mythic status for the Song Girls if all they do is jump around and wave?

Traditionalists might say UCLA simply played better, but reader Ryan Gray of Los Angeles has the true explanation: USC's renowned Song Girls caused the defeat. Gray notes in mid-November as the Trojans defeated Cal, clinching the Pacific-10 title, the Song Girls danced with roses, symbolizing the Rose Bowl. Before the BCS system, a Pac-10 title did confer a Rose Bowl trip, and in those days it was appropriate for the Song Girls to dance with roses at the moment the title was won. But not only does the BCS system scramble who goes where -- more important, as Gray pointed out in an e-mail two weeks ago, this year at the moment USC beat Cal, the only way the Trojans could end up in the Rose Bowl was if they lost one of their two remaining games, to Notre Dame or UCLA. Which is what happened. Rather than play for the BCS crown, Southern Cal is now Rose Bowl-bound. Blame the cheerleaders -- they are the ones who used their beauty and wiles to beseech the football gods with roses!
