USC
Posted by: Bradley McDonald
Well, the National Championship game wasn't all it was made out to be. The Trojans definitely held up their end, but Jason White and the boys of "Choke-lahoma" looked horrible in losing their second consecutive championship game. Matt Leinart looked like a Heisman trophy winner, but the receivers are the ones who really impressed me. Leinart kept putting the ball where only his receivers could catch it and they made some outstanding grabs. White, on the other hand, kept putting the ball where only the Trojan defenders could catch it.
After seeing USC dominate this game, I believe they would beat Auburn. They just have too many weapons on offense. Of course, USC wouldn't have nearly as many big plays against Auburn, because Auburn's defensive backs can actually cover something. Oklahoma's defensive backfield just looked lost out there.
Now the BCS is contemplating using a committee of "experts" to decide the National Championship game. Well, isn't that wonderful. So instead of blaming computer rankings for a split championship, now we get to blame actual human beings. I really don't see how a committee could've reduced the controversy the last two years. Both years had three teams with legitimate arguments to be in the championship game.
Oh, well. At least the NFL has a playoff! And it starts this weekend. Tune in tomorrow to see my picks.
