31 Game Win Streak

Congratulations to my USC Trojan football team. It was great to see them perform to expectations in their 51-21 victory over the Stanford Cardinal. I was also glad to see some of the BCS controversy fade as #3 ranked Virginia Tech fell to #5 ranked Miami. If the top teams win out the rest of the season, it looks like the NCAA Championship game will be a showdown between the University of Texas Longhorns and the University of Southern California Trojans. Honestly, I cannot forcast the outcome of that game. I would like to see my alma mater win, but Vince Young seems to be a force to be reckoned with this year.


This brings me to the only thing I can be disappointed with this year: The Heisman Trophy race. I admit that Vince Young is the only constant factor keeping Texas winning, but I know that when people cast their votes for the best college football player this year, they are just going to look at statistics. This year, there have only been a few close games where Matt Leinart and Reggie Bush have played all four quarter of a game. Their stats would be so much better if they actually played all four quarters of every game. However, Vince Young has played almost a full game almost every week for Texas. Their second string quarterback has only 8 passes all season, as opposed to the USC back-up, John Booty, who has played in the 4th quarter of almost every game and has attempted 39 passes this year. I almost wish USC would leave Matt Leinart in so he could pad his stats. I guess I'll just have to be satisfied with the success of the football team.
