Well, that's nice, but as a Rebel fan, you'll really love this one:

Ole Miss-Mississippi State out drew USC-UCLA by over 200,000 viewers.

That's right...the Egg Bowl. That massive Mississippi TV market!

B1G fans trying to prop up this move like suddenly there are going to be huge numbers of eyeballs in Southern California suddenly watching Big 10 football are fricking hilarious.

Yeah because what California kid doesnt dream of of playing football in freezing temps.


Ohio State landed the #1 player in the country in the 2024 class, QB from Arizona.

Ohio State has the #1 class in 2023, with 11 of their 19 commits from the south.

yeah, those "freezing temps" are really scaring the top talent in warm weather states!

Do you have any more brilliant theories Einstein?

A strong USC with the B1G brand changes everything in LA.
last November Auburn at South Carolina 7pm EST drew over 2M viewers - on ESPN/CABLE - the same day that Southern California vs UCLA drew 1.8M viewers on Fox/OTA 4pm EST.

Los Angeles tv market doesn't GAF about CFB and nobody in LA is getting up at 8am PST to 'breakfast tailgate' in Pasadena to watch UCLA play in dreary cold East Lansing MI on the Fox Big Noon Kickoff. Southern Cal fans aren't getting up that early either to watch the trojans play a bigten game against anyone not named Michigan, Penn State or Ohio S.

Southern Cal football under Pete Carrol was always about fans/celebs being 'seen' at the Coliseum when the trojans were winning. Lincoln Riley is not Pete Carrol and LA doesn't know who Lincoln Riley is. until Southern Cal gets another one of "their guys" to coach football - attendance/viewership will never be anything like it was with Carrol - conference affiliations matter not.

I'm not sure why you guys keep bringing up Rutgers when you have Vaderbilt.



That's because you're fricking clueless. You've got Rutgers, Maryland, Indiana, Illinois, Purdue, Northwestern, and Nebraska. USC fans won't give a shite about watching those games. And as I already pointed out, UCLA couldn't even out draw Alcorn State on opening night, when they hadn't lost a game yet, and virtually no one else in the country was playing.

Hell, even Auburn-South Carolina outdrew USC-UCLA. And both of those teams had losing conference records.

But the media love for USC when they were rolling with Pete Carrol was second to none over the past 25 years.


News Flash: The media sucks off whoever is doing well, and then they will also slam the same people/teams when they are on the way down.

Because they just do what they think will get them more viewers at the time.

Sick riding?

Not familiar with that.
Is that what y'all call sleeping with your sister?

OK, refute these points ...

#1 Hawkeye fans are most like tOSU fans without the hardware and the winning
#2 ND (football) and Dook (basketball) are valuable more for the fans tuning in to watch them lose than their own fans tuning in to watch them win
#3 Sooners have more "brand" value than "population" value from OK
(especially in year round LIVE content)
#4 B1G value is eyeballs, SEC value is content

What's stupid is thinking that people in southern California are going to give a shite about watching Iowa football.

There may be RelentlessTide stupid, but you're demonstrating that, well beyond that, there's fewer-brain-cells-than-a-two-week-old-head-of-cabbage stupid.

I don’t disagree, but it was on a another level when it was happening in LA.

That's correct.

See also: entire last season where he was exposed every week. We'll be correct about Riley at USC. I'm confident of that.

Oklahoma is the jilted ex-girlfriend. They would take Riley back in less than a second if he would come back.

“”Oklahoma is the jilted ex-girlfriend. They would take Riley back in less than a second if he would come back.”

Sooners would not bother to walk their dog across the street to piss on Riley’s leg...

Venables has completely remade the staff and the team and the culture.

Riley lost the locker room several players were set to transfer out of Riley returned....basically RILEY was terrible in 2021......

Objectively USC is a great program to add period like Texas and Oklahoma. Who doesn't fit? UCLA. So the Big Ten has 1/2 additions great while the SEC got 2/2. Pretty easy to see here

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Not a chance. You Riley nut-huggers have no idea what was going on at OU with Riley there last year. He was on the verge of a mutiny. You're just lapping up media hype like unthinking morons.
