Horrible defenses of the Big 12? Give me a break. Now offense I will understand the Big 12 offenses this year have reaked, but not the defenses. Now the defenses of the WAC 10 is a different story..
I hear ya.. ya never know how folks will vote tho..
Those front lines of both teams have pretty good sized beef to 'em,, damn they get big... should be a good game.
Colorado sucked and are an embarrassment but the bowl season will show either how bad we were or if in fact we can say like the SEC we beat ourselves up.
Correction: offenses. Yes, they wreak.
Here's the rankings of the passing offenses Texas has faced:
#110 Louisiana Laughayette
#68 Ohio St.
#117 Rice
#65 Missouri
#97 Oklahoma
#43 Colorado (twice)
#1 Texas Tech
#98 Oklahoma St.
#75 Baylor
#93 Kansas St.
#76 Texas A&M
And here's the rankings of the passing offenses USC has faced:
#2 Hawaii
#107 Arkansas
#7 Oregon
#3 ASU
#47 Arizona
#4 Notre Dame
#55 Washington
#21 Washington St.
#52 Stanford
#90 Cal
#24 Fresno St.
#18 UCLA
Average ranking of passing offenses USC faced: 35.8
USC has faced only two passing offenses ranked in the bottom half of the passing statistics while Texas faced nine.
You might beat your selves up in the SEC but the SEC schools don`t know what a tough nonconference schedule looks like. Next year, for example, LSU battles LA. Lafayette, real toughy one there
That has nothing to do with what my post you are replying too is about. I said DEFENSES not OFFENSES.
Who is the odds on favorite here?
I am enjoying the awards show immensely.
Thanks for posting the thread, Norm.
Reggie Bush..
Read the headline on this thread. Thought we're about to get another round of blaming Bush for something.
Reggie --- and he should best OJ's vote which was a landslide.
That`s not fair. Facts have no place here.
No problem,
these are some headlines on yahoo sports re: recent awards
• Leinart wins Unitas Award
• Texas QB Young wins Maxwell Award
• Young wins O'Brien Award as top passer
• Bush runs off with Doak Walker Award
• Bush takes Walter Camp Award
Does anybody doubt that Bush will win the Heisman?
Facts have all the place here, just the right ones. His facts have nothing to do with my post.Yet another PAC 10 fan stereotype you guys keep propagating.
We wouldn't want to "stereotype" a Tiny 12 as having no offense.
There you go, keep the stereotype alive.
I am in Vince's corner but Bush is just plain Nasty. He breaks ankles on a weekly basis.
