How funny is that shite?......

Pre-season #1 ranked USC ending up in El Paso playing lowly Georgia Tech.

Not sure why, but I'm actually pretty intrigued by this match-up though.

Christopher/Rules/Jacket77, Care to break this one down for us?........

Hoping that Barkley's trend of 9 INTs in the past three games continues. PAC-12 defenses are historically pisspoor, so there's a chance we could go back and forth on this one. USCw's offense - rushing and passing - will most likely carve up our D like a Christmas goose. Still, looking forward to playing USC and enjoying the sideline eye candy

Makes sense. I saw the grill on one of the Tech cheerleaders and her bottom row of teeth looked like the top of a castle.

I would get tickets to this game just to watch the cheerleaders cause both teams suck balls.

I thought he was out for the rest of the year? Took a wicked hit in the UCLA game, IIRC.

Both coaches talked about their excitement to be in this game and Kiffin began his comments with an apology for a Tweet one of his players made about El Paso after the game was announced.

Tony Burnett, a 22-year-old former walk-on player from Watts, Calif., in Twitter messages said that no one wants to be in El Paso on New Year's Eve and
quote:

"if you never seen a real life giant tumbleweed get ready."


Kiffin said Burnett, because of class, had missed a team meeting in which the positives of the Sun Bowl were presented to players.

On whether or not Kiffin has ever faced Georgia Tech's Paul Johnson: “No, I have not."

Kiffin went on to say he and the Trojans were "excited" or the bowl announcement was "exciting" at least five more times in a conference call lasting less than 10 minutes.


(More details to come as they become available)

Julian Burnett from Macon, GA... messed up his neck in last year's Sun Bowl & it ended his career. LINK

Pre-injury:

Report: Lane Kiffin, USC Stand Up Paul Johnson, Georgia Tech at Sun Bowl Dinner

quote:

Sunland Park is almost seven miles from El Paso, Texas, where Kiffin was spotted wearing a sombrero - Georgia Tech left after one hour without the Trojans showing up

quote:

USC players Jabari Ruffin and Scott Starr both tweeted they could see Mexico as they were driving around. After having National Championship hopes, it’s not surprising that USC wouldn’t take the Sun Bowl very seriously, if this was indeed intentional.

quote:

Lane Kiffin and Paul Johnson interacting with each other would've been a treat too wonderful to comprehend, but their not interacting is even more fitting.

quote:

What's missing from the Sun Bowl BBQ? USC. Tech has been here an hour, finished eating, and no Trojans in sight


quote:

Bad form #USC. Hour late for Sheriff's Posse Dinner. #GaTech coach Paul Johnson took team & left. Can't blame him






quote:

Must be #Hyundai #Sunbowl time...Here at #SunlandPark for Sheriff's Posse dinner as Old & Ugly rocks. #USC is a no-show and #GaTech leaves

I don't think Kiffin made it his goal to show up ridiculously late for that dinner, but you gotta believe he wasn't exactly busting his arse to make up for lost time either. He could've at least notified someone that they wouldn't be there as scheduled.


I have to admit, it would be pretty funny if Tech beat USC.
