USC...this one is on Sarkisian

[dallcow4life28]

Direct snap to the tailback? A swing pass on 3rd and 20, down by 7? Not running the ball against an over-matched front 7? Play-makers not touching the ball? I have seen this too many times over the last 3 or 4 years. Steve Sarkisian must have his play-calling duties stripped from him. He seems to use these wood-shed games to display all his little cute plays that he has drawn up. THAT IS NOT USC FOOTBALL!!!

The direct-snap crap is something that sorry SEC offenses run. We are tailback U--use the tailback out of the I formation and punish the weaker foes--that's how it's supposed to be done.

I hope that when Al Davis fires Lane Kiffin, that he is on the first thing smoking to re-claim his OC job from Sarkisian. Kiffin always attacked the defense until the Trojans were in the 40's, and even then would still attack. Sarkisian is a punk and a bum as a play-caller. Going on Go-daddy today to start the "Fire Sarkisian" site.

...........I agree with you bro. I am totally disappointed with the outcome of this game.

John McKay would be rolling over in his grave right now. All the pac-10 bashers will go to town on this one. The truth is that the only teams that beat USC are Pac-10 teams. Why? Because they know what Sark is calling--they know us too well. That crap works against OSU and every other out-of-conference team. But the Pac-10 knows how to play us--which is why there is a need to come out early and dominate physically--which the Trojans did not do--they looked un-prepared!!!

i think that usc was spoiled with how joe mcknight ran through ohio state, they probably thought that he could do that to oregon state as well. i am surprised that they didn't seem to make too many adjustmets, but nevertheless, it still put a smile on my face to watch oregon state handle them. oregon state owns usc!

Watching the same game......the defense got man handled...and as some have quipped they could not pass the QUIZ......their left defensive end should be cut...he kept letting a 175lb back trap block him even in the 3rd quarter when they knew the play was coming....i couldn't believe my eyes....they just were outplayed on both sides of the ball..... they were caught looking ahead and thought this team was a walkover
