Makes one wonder if Texas at this point is really the #2 team. I think that USC has reloaded better than Texas at this point.
"Makes one wonder if Texas at this point is really the #2 team. I think that USC has reloaded better than Texas at this point." As someone still smarting over last year's heatbreaking loss in the BCS championship, I must admit to schadenfraude that the Longhorn's reign was short-lived. Vince Young brought them to the dance and then left them in the dust. That said, I honestly didn't think USC would be where it is this year and I'd be much more comfortable if they were a bit lower in the standings. I am impressed with how they have done considering the loss of Leinart, Bush and White. But they haven't really been tested yet. Nebraska will be tough and Notre Dame will be out for revenge... I'm just thrilled that they are in contention for the fourth year in a row. It occurred to me that, had we been going by the new clock rules last year, USC would probably have beaten the Longhorns last year. Then again, they would have lost to Notre Dame, so they wouldn't have been in the BCS championship anyway.....
I predict ND moved to #2, and Texas drops to #5. I found a few other OSU fans in the heart of Houston last night but we kept it subdued. UT fans were busy blaming Mack Brown (his grace period is over already).
