Prepare yourselves....

[Partial Qualifier]

the media lovefest for SC freshman quarterback Barkley has officially begun. And this may eventually rival the inexplicable Tebow fascination.

McKnight carried SC down the field on their game-winning drive - it was almost ALL McKnight. Barkley completed one downfield pass (to the TE) but there's hardly any mention of McKnight anywhere.... it's all about Barkley.

15/31 for 195 yards (49%) 0 TD's / 1 INT. Let the slobbering begin. :rolleyes:

[AzianSooner]

SC does have top-of-the-wolrd caliber of qb. Heck, SC does have top-of-the-world players in every postion.

The only thing they sometime dont have is luck.

[Dan Thompson]

It looked like OSU defense just fell apart on the last USC drive.

Also on the 2 point conversion, I wish OSU had intercepted that little side line pass and gone the distance for the 17-16 win.

[EstablishedSooner1967]

I concur on this... there is going to be a lov fest with this kid and winning on the road against a good defense but a team that has no offense.

[GottaHavePride]

It looked like OSU defense just fell apart on the last USC drive.

Bingo. tOSU's defense gave that one away.

[Partial Qualifier]

Yeah. And Ohio State is in desperate need of a good QB coach. Wow.

[SoonerLB]

The silver lining in this is that the more time they spend fawning over Barkley, the less time they have to spend on that circumcision facilitator down south!

[tulsaoilerfan]

Yeah. And Ohio State is in desperate need of a good QB coach. Wow.

No, they need a good QB; Pryor is a worse passer than VY ever was

[StoopTroup]

They were all over him last night.

Sanchez is a distant memory.

[tulsaoilerfan]

Hell anything that gets Tebowner off the front pages can't be that bad, can it?

[StoopTroup]

Good point....:D

[tulsaoilerfan]

My son called Barkley "sunshine" after the game last night; seemed to be dead on to me :)

[rainiersooner]

It works for me.

Also, did USC's drive and OSU's collapse seem inevitable to anyone other than me?

[stoopified]

Reminds me of the Colt lovefest in2006?,he went somthing 9-17 for 105 yards in the RRS and all of a sudden he was Johnny U incarnate.

On the other hand this IS typical Condomn lovefest.I vividly recall John David Booty and Mark Sanchez were pimped as Heisman contenders before their first career starts.

[StoopTroup]

Sweater Vests are teh debil.

[Soonerman08]

No, they need a good QB; Pryor is a worse passer than VY ever was

Remember when there were some in the media stating Pryor was as good a passer as Sam? :rolleyes:

[IronHorseSooner]

This will all dispense after they fall to a lesser conference opponent. I remember a quote last year, after the Oregon State loss that "remember, the PAC 10 isn't as in awe of USC as the rest of America is." They will to do like us and have a WTF game, hopefully for us, OUrs already happened.

[BoulderSooner79]

It works for me.

Also, did USC's drive and OSU's collapse seem inevitable to anyone other than me?

Yep. I went to dinner with my wife at halftime and told her that tOSU would manage to blow the game at the end and there was no reason to watch. I tivo'd the 2nd half just in case some miracle happened, but it was a waste of disk space.

Sadly, I felt the same way about tOSU as my favorite crimson team. Either they come out and take charge of the game in the first half or they fade in the 2nd half. I was envious of teams like Umich yesterday that came through in the clutch.

I don't listen to any of the media anymore, I no longer watch any of the shows for any sport on ESPN I pretty much limit my time on there to only watching games. So I don't get too much of the hype anymore and I used to be a bit of a junkie about it.

[ouwapiti]

pryor seems to lack a bit of 'intestinal fortitude' to me....

McKnight won that game

it's like they greased him up before that possesion

[AlbqSooner]

No grease needed. He just remembered the advice Reggie Bush gave him on the conference phone call when he was being recruited. :D

Can you imagine a Florida vs USC matchup? The talking heads will blow a gasket with Reverand and Sunshine on the same field.

[A-M]

We could help make that happen on Oct. 17. Only think is I would rather have us in there then one of them. And, I'm not saying which one.

[Desert Sapper]

Cal will handle USuCk this year.

[NOVSooner]

Cal will handle USuCk this year.

agreed

+ Rep coming your way. Amen LB.

[VA Sooner]

I wanted that 2 point conversion intercepted and run back as well. Would have alright with me.

But I had that feeling in my gut Ohio State was going down once USC got on McKnight and rode him hard down the field. I kept waiting for him to fumble... never happened.

[SoonerStormchaser]

I'll Admit: I cheered for SUCC.
Cause I HATE OHIO ****ING STATE WORSE THAN I HATE TEXASS!!!

I will say, I don't love either one of them. They both needed to lose!:P

You probably shouldn't watch games like that then. It's to confusing for you. :D

I can't remember the last time I pulled for USC.
I do remember the last time I pulled for the horns (against USC)
And the last time I pulled for tOSU (against USC)
And ND and Michigan and ... (against USC)

I think I see a pattern developing. It would be a lot more rewarding if I could back the condoms, though.

I about fell outta my chair laughing at work....LMFAO!:D

[GKeeper316]

no way... barkley isnt a virgin who spends his spare time handling little boys peepees.

granted, after this year is over, espn will need a new poster boy, but this barkley character is no Tebus.

[Crucifax Autumn]

Maybe some day we can have a 50% passer who throws interceptions so we can be unbeatable too!

[Hot Rod]

I couldn't take Brent Hamburglar's comment of "a last minute drive for the ages for Barkley!"

Uh, Brent without #4, they'd be hopeless. Give him the credit.
