USC showed exactly the type of team they are this year - young and unpredictible. THe Offensive line took about 10 penalties to kill them today. You don't lose Matt Leinart, Reggie Bush , LenDale White, Winston Justice and expect your offense to pickup where they left off. IMO this was the year the loss of Norm Chow really showed, last year Leinart, Bush, White, Garrett were running on auto-pilot.

No way it was a choke job. Bruins came to play and their defence was HUGE all night. Booty was good but the UCLA defence was better.....no choke just a huge game by a slightly above average team playing to 110% of their potential.
