I agree. USC dominated the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. (Their receivers and QB also dominated OU's secondary.) The OU coach, who blamed it all on his team's "mistakes", didn't have the grace to admit the obvious.

OU was outcoached, too.

Yes, you are right. I forgot the most important ingredient of USC's success. Pete Carroll and Norm Chow and the rest of the Trojan coaching staff deserve high praise. The glass-half-full perspective on the characteristically slow starts of the Trojans is that the coaches know how to respond and adjust to what the other team is doing.
