    Nice.

    I'm UW undergrad/USC grad. Welcome aboard. Years ago I would have been horrified about cheering for USC, I'm talking repping-purple-in-Marshall type of dooging. These days though? Man. My opinion of UW, Seattle, 98% of our fans, and the AD is so flagrantly and irreconcilably hostile that I have to recalibrate what I care about and who I cheer for. We'll have to tailgate at some point this season.

    I've actually had the SC tailgate hookup since I was a kid and some prime time seats. I got into a pissing match with @CirrhosisDawg about it once upon a time and posted pics from the 50. Watched the sark meltdown game from there. No idea post covid how they got reshuffled though. No one ever wants to go with me bc LA and football. Hmu this season!

    I was at the Sark meltdown game. One of the all-time memories for sure.

    Fuck SC (the University of Spoiled Children).

    In the last 30 years, they have shined pretty much only during the Pete Carroll era, who happened to be their third choice for the job.

    I laffed when they celebrated (on Trojan Boards) the hiring of Sark away from Washington. Seems everybody in the Pac knew he was a sot and screwing around except SC’s AD at the time.

    Entitled, dumber than fuck fans.

    The Coliseum - terrible football facility in a shit area. Would be nice with a tailgate hookup and prime seats. Lots of not so prime seats there.

    Hmu this season! ???

    USC should really benefit from the NIL era, where $$$ talks and almost every SoCal kid dreams of playing for USC . . . at least they used to.

    In the old days (the 1960’s when they had 120 scholarships) All-CIF players were lucky to make it on the field ever during their careers because of the intense competition for playing time within the program.

    We’ve entered the era of semi-pro football.

    BTW: As much as I hate them, USC has one of the best fight songs (long version) in college football.

    I've been a Trojan fan since OJ

    I was a fan of the “gutty little Bruins”, with the undersized Terry Donahue playing DT at 6’0”, 195 lbs. They won the Rose Bowl in 1965. Their heaviest DLineman was 225 lbs.

    Congrats! Btw is their machine learning program good? I figured all the Ivys or Chicago or Tree would be beating their chest that they are the best.
