holy cow what an experience yesterday and what a game. This team deserved it. A perfect way to end the season. Coming back from 1-3 to winning the rose bowl in dramatic fashion. Incredible 

[Adam]

That was pretty awesome

[gotbeer]

I only watched one bowl game this season.  Glad it was that one.  Man, what a game.  Hats off to Penn State also. 

[Blarg]

I tuned out in the third quarter after Penn recorded their third in a row unanswered score. When I did I muttered out loud, watch this be the greatest comeback of the year, then thought nothing more of it.

Not even close to being true. Every seat is good, even the top row. 

You can't say that about the Coliseum

[Lou]

btw, congrats on the win. That was a great (offensive) game. 

[Lou]

btw, why is every other player in cfb referred to as a "redshirt freshman/sophomore,etc" except for Darnold?

Because Darnold has Dick Hammer blood running through his veins

I was referring to the actual seats. My legs don't fit in the rows. 

The Coliseum has some mightily shitty views. On the peristyle side, up in the nosebleeds, your views literally are partially restricted by a retaining wall. Same goes for up top adjacent the press box

You must have missed the USC defense in the 4th

Operative word was "game"

Over 1,000 total yards. PSU averaged 7.5 yards per play.  It was not a great, or good for that matter, defensive game.

if you think so, you must also think you played a great game defensively against Alabama.

Played great defense when it mattered. I'll take it

I was there with nice seats in the 25th row of Isle 3 and had to stand 90% of the time.

As expected JuJu smith to the league

Damien mama also declared. It's a loss but not a huge loss. We actually have depth on the o line 

[Angel Oracle]

Darnold has to be one of the pre-season Heisman favorites in 2017.    Poise, arm, accuracy, and running ability

Well huh, he did win the Archie griffin award (college football MVP) so there's that.

USC finishes #3 in AP poll. Highest ever for a 3 loss team. Never thought they'd finish 1 spot behind bama in September after 52-6. Thought they would be a 5-7 team.

I thought we'd be worse than that.  I was seeing visions of 3-9 or 4-8.  I had penciled in losses to ucla, ND, Colorado, Oregon and ASU based on how bad we looked against Stanford and Utah. 

Team dynamic completely changed once young Dick Hammer took over
