Does the Rose Bowl realize how irrelevent they are?

The rest of the non-ABC/ESPN country knows that this Pac 10/Big 10 matchup is a joke every year. USC is an elite team, give them their credit, but there are no Big 10 teams that can compete with the elite in the country (and that means you too tOSU).

It's like the people that watch Bill O'Reilly because they hate him. People (myself included) just love to get mad at the Herbie/Mushmouth manlove for USC.

Has Doug Flutie taken his shoes off and had a picnic yet on the most beautiful field he has ever seen (he said that this afternoon)?

Thank you. They need to end that Big Ten vs Pac Ten crap. Sometimes you just have to let tradition go.

We have Cincy/V Tech because the Rose Bowl just has too have the Pac 10/Big 10 matchup. Other conferences are willing to talk about adjustments in the BCS bowls to get the best matchups, but not the Rose Bowl.

Perhaps by watching Texas and USC play each other?

Penn State and Va. Tech might have been a good game to watch also.

They said in ESPN the other day that the Rose Bowl was gonna feature "two legendary coaches". How in the hell do they figure that? Joe Pa=legendary coach. Petey=obviously a pretty good coach, but legendary?
