College Football Week 11 - Southern Cal's 7 Years of Excellence Ends, Stanford Wins, 55 - 21
Copyright © 2009 Ed Bagley
It's over for Southern California. Coach Pete Carroll will be dining with some lesser light Hollywood celebrities in the near future.
Gone are the USC streaks of 7 straight BCS bowls, 7 straight 11-win seasons, and 7 straight top-4 AP poll finishes. Gone also is USC's 7-year stranglehold on the Pac-10 Conference title.
After 60 excruciating minutes of watching Stanford's Toby Gerhart—The Cardinal Battering Ram—run all over USC's home field for 178 yards and 3 touchdowns, Pete Carroll and his Trojans were handed their second major trouncing in two weeks. There was no stopping Gerhart as 25th-ranked Stanford (7-3) did a number on the 11th-ranked and soon dropping USC (7-3) Trojans, 55-21. Adding insult to injury, it was USC's 2009 homecoming game.
Just two weeks ago, USC was upset at Oregon 47-20. Saturday's loss to Stanford was the Trojans' worst since a 51-0 drubbing at home against Notre Dame in 1966, 43 years ago.
Pete Carroll had to be bummed out. He lost in November for the first time after 28 straight victories in the toughest month for every college football coach during the season. And for the second time in three weekends, Carroll endured the worst loss of his 9 seasons at USC. The perennial flower that bloomed at USC for 7 consecutive years has now faded.
After leading 28-21 after 3 quarters, Stanford piled it on with 4 touchdowns in the last quarter, just rubbing it in a little bit for past indiscretions by the Trojans. Stanford Coach Jim Harbaugh's 2007 team also upset then 2nd-ranked USC 24-23 on the Trojans' same home field.
Harbaugh has made it quite clear that he is sick and tired of USC's past dominance in the Pac-10. Virtually everyone thought that the California Bears would be the team to bring the Trojans down a peg or two, but it was Harbaugh's Cardinal team that has gotten the job done.
Stanford's victory over USC was only 1 of 5 upsets among ranked teams this week. The other 4 were recorded by unranked teams:
North Carolina (7-3), unranked and smarting, won 33-24 at home over No. 12 Miami of Florida (also 7-3) as Coach Butch Davis notched his 3rd consecutive victory over his former program, and made North Carolina bowl eligible for the 2nd straight season.
Central Florida (6-4) handed No. 13 Houston (8-2) its second loss 37-32, closing the door on Cougar quarterback Case Keenum, who had a couple of last-minute rallies in Houston's last 5 wins. The Central Florida Knights rallied at home from a two-touchdown deficit to build a 17-point lead before Keenum threw two late TD passes to make the final score appear closer.
California (7-3) stuck a fork in No. 18 Arizona's (6-3) hopes for a better season as the Bears finally roared again at home, beating the Wildcats 24-16. Rutgers (7-2) was hardly impressed with No. 23 South Florida (6-3) as the Scarlet Knights took the South Florida Bulls to school by shutting them out 31-0. Rutgers forced 4 turnovers, blocked a punt and recorded 7 sacks, and freshman quarterback Tom Savage threw for two touchdowns.
Stanford's upset of Southern Cal was 1 of the 3 great games of the day. The other two involved No. 4 TCU and No. 10 Ohio State.
No. 4 TCU (10-0) remained unbeaten by really making 16th-ranked Utah (8-2) look bad in a 55-28 win. TCU leads the mid-level Mountain West Conference with a 6-0 record. Utah had been running around all season acting like the Utes were something special, and then they arrived at TCU and found out why they are not so special. As if to erase any doubt, TCU led 38-14 at the half.
No. 10 Ohio State (9-2) brought No. 15 Iowa (9-2) into its view as the Buckeyes welcomed the Hawkeyes into their 101,568-seat Horseshoe Stadium before taking the game into overtime and earning a trip to the Rose Bowl for the first time in 13 years. Ohio State last visited the Rose Bowl in 1996 when the Buckeyes were ranked 2nd in the nation after beating Arizona State 20-17.
But back to Saturday's game, which will provide fodder for sports talk radio shows for months to come as neither Ohio State or Iowa would go for a last minute victory when they had the opportunity to do so. The game ended at 24-all after Marvin McNutt threw a 10-yard scoring pass to James Vandenberg.
The Buckeyes had blown a two-touchdown lead in the 4th quarter. The Hawkeyes had the ball at their 33 with 52 seconds and two timeouts left, but chose to run out the clock and send the game into overtime. Ohio State had the ball on its 18 with 2:37 left and multiple timeouts, and didn't try to win it.
Both coaches—Kirk Ferentz of Iowa and Jim Tressel of Ohio State—wanted overtime to get it settled because they did not trust their kickers; Iowa had missed a 22-yard field goal attempt earlier in the game, and Ohio State's kicker had missed from 47 yards out.
When push came to shove, Tressel basically took three runs up the middle for all of 2 yards before letting replacement kicker Devin Barclay come up with the winning 39-yard FG to put the Buckeyes on top, 27-24. The Hawkeyes were unbeaten this year until losing 17-10 at home to Northwestern last week.
Barclay, a 26-year-old former pro soccer player and first-year, walk-on kicker, was forced into duty as a replacement three weeks ago when starter Aaron Pettrey injured his knee.
And now for the expected happenings of week 11. Here are another 8 ranked teams that won home games:
No. 5 Cincinnati (10-0) remained unbeaten by using a field goal advantage to beat a 7-3 West Virginia team 24-21. No. 6 Boise State (10-0) remained unbeaten by easily handling a 7-4 Idaho team 63-25. No. 8 Pittsburgh (9-1) led Notre Dame (6-4) 20-3 after 3 quarters and almost let things get out-of-hand before putting away the Fighting Irish 27-22.
No. 9 LSU (8-2) notched an unspectacular win over Louisiana Tech 24-16. No. 14 Oregon (8-2) ripped Arizona State 44-21. No. 17 Oklahoma State (8-2) was behind 10-7 at the half but beat Texas Tech 24-17. No. 19 Penn State beat Indiana 31-20 despite having 4 first-half turnovers. No. 21 Wisconsin (8-2) took apart a struggling Michigan team 45-24.
Here are another 7 ranked teams that won away games, always tougher than home victories:
No. 1 Florida (10-0) remained unbeaten at the expense of South Carolina, 24-14, as the Gators completed their first perfect (8-0) SEC East title in 13 years. No. 2 Texas (10-0) remained unbeaten by easily kicking around Baylor, 47-14, as Colt McCoy tied the NCAA record for career victories by a starting quarterback with 42 (take just a moment and think about how special the accomplishment was by Colt McCoy).
No. 3 Alabama (10-0) remained unbeaten by dominating Mississippi State, 31-3, and continues to lead the SEC West with a 7-0 mark. No. 7 Georgia Tech (10-1) stomped Duke, 49-10, to clinch a spot in the ACC Conference championship game. No. 20 Virginia Tech (7-3) beat Maryland 36-9. No. 22 BYU (8-2) could only muster a 24-19 victory over a hapless, inept, winless 0-10 New Mexico team. No. 24 Clemson (7-3) whipped North Carolina State 43-23.
Three other games among unranked teams were noteworthy. Temple (8-2) won its 8th consecutive game 56-17 over Akron; Central Michigan (8-2) picked up its 8th win 56-28 over Toledo; Navy (8-3) earned its 8th win by downing Delaware 35-18; and Mississippi (7-3) found a way to penetrate Tennessee's (5-5) defense by scoring 42 points to win 42-17.
Four unranked teams finally became bowl eligible this week, the most surprising of which was the Southern Methodist (6-4) Mustangs, who outlasted UTEP 35-31.
June Jones was 1-11 in this first year coaching last year and now has a bowl-eligible team. People no longer laugh when you use SMU and football in the same sentence. Jones built a juggernaut at mid-level Hawaii using Mouse Davis' run-and-shoot offense, going 75-41 over 9 years, and winning 4 of 6 bowl games. The bottom line on the likeable June Jones—more dangerous than his name would indicate.
The three other teams joining SMU as bowl eligible were Oklahoma, Arkansas and Michigan State. Some people wondered if Oklahoma (6-4) was going to make it this year, but the Sooners finally got the job done by easily beating Texas A&M, 65-10. Arkansas (6-4) took care of a 7-3 Troy team, 56-20; and Michigan State (6-5) was 11 points down to Purdue but won 40-37 on Brett Swenson's 4th field goal with 1:51 left.

Arizona Cardinals Clocks Questions
Any words for Vince Young now?
He just passed a game winning touchdown with no time on the clock on 4th and 10 against the Arizona Cardinals.This is his 5th straight win this season after being put in when the Titans was 0-6.
I went berserk when he threw the touchdown, it was amazing. As a super-Longhorn fan, and quite a Titans fan (since the Oilers!), I was super excited to see one of my favorite players make phenomenal plays right after another, and almost toss for FOUR HUNDRED-400 yards, and NO picks. Wow. It was quite an impressive performance, by the offense and the defense, and a good try by Leinart and the Cardinals.
Why are so many NFL football players into dogfighting?
Most wealthy people develop strange habits of some sort or another. Why do you think dogfighting appeals to NFL football players?
Some of the people in the NFL were brought up in what is called the deep south, where this kind of behavior thrives. It is basically a cultural issue. I disagree when you say most wealthy people develop strange habits, how do they differ psychologically from the rest of society.

Chicago Bears Countdown to Armageddon Reaches Two Weeks
Chicago Bears coach Lovie Smith came about as close to hitting the panic button as he'll show following Saturday night's dismal 14-9 preseason loss to the Arizona Cardinals.

Watch Nfl Football - is There Any Way to Watch Nfl Football for Free?
A few months ago I asked myself this question;"Is there any way to watch NFL Football for free?", when I was trying to find a way to watch NFL football on my PC. After surfing on the net for hours in order to find an appropriate program, I finally found it. It was a program that allowed me to access several channels; the most important thing is that I could watch NFL football for free.
The software was working well for two weeks, however on the third week I could not find the channel that I previously accessed. It was a few minutes before the game started. Fortunately I found it quickly. The program was similar to the previous one; however there was an unexpected problem such as slow buffering process and it was disconnected frequently.
I finally gave up. I told my friend the problem I was facing and he introduced me a software. I never thought of spending my money on that kind of software, but this software changed my mind.
After telling the story to my other friends, they checked out the software on the net and they were shocked. They could actually watch NFL football games and still get access to more than 3,000 channels.
I advised them that they can save more than $1000 every year if they switched their monthly TV subscription they have at home to this software. The reason they believe me is that I suddenly can treat them dinner, which I never did before.
I wasted a lot of time looking for a good software that will work well for long time but in fact there was not any. I could have saved that time if I only I knew about this software early and was willing to spend just a low one time price for this program. It is not about the time only but small portion of the stress as well.
It happened to me alright, I hope it will not happen to you. I believe the value of time is greater compared to the money we spend.
I can say that this software is literally free, because:
* I can have unlimited lifetime access after paying only a one time payment
* I do not have to waste my time anymore to look for another software again, i can use my time to do other things
* I do not have to worry about missing any NFL games no more
* I saved my money that i used to spend for my months TV subscription
Watch NFL football for free is not impossible.
I certainly hope that this article could be a valuable reading for you. Did you know that you can re-watch the NFL game you missed with this software?
Don't delay, claim your own software now, i invite you to visit watch NFL Football for free for the review, you'll be amazed.
