MAXIMIZE YOUR EDGE
USC’s recruiting in your conference continues to amaze me. I swear, the NCAA could limit them to 8 schollies, and USC would still pick up the #1 QB, #1 RB and #1 WR without even leaving their backyard. Just insane. I guess it doesn’t hurt to have beaches, smoking hot women and 32 million people to choose from.. Who wouldn’t want to come to that kind of environment? And who would want to leave that enviornment? Never underestimate the beaches! BUT, in my opinion you cannot lose that many schollies like they did, and it not eventually have an impact. They have recruited well, but when you end up with only 55 players on scholarship you won’t have much depth.
I know probation knocked the crap out of OU when they were last on it. We’ll see how it plays out with the Trojans, but I don’t believe they can lose these schollies and just continue to rock around in the top 5. Something has to give. Although I don’t totally agree, I’ve had a couple pretty smart football people tell me that USC will be the overrated team of the year by the time the season is over. I’ll reserve judgement.
Just one question Pez and GoSooners… some of that sounded vaguely familiar… like maybe I was talking in my sleep… perhaps posting random thoughts between surfing sessions as I pursue my lifelong quest for the perfect rack of female hooters.
I am of course referring to the comments above.
Surely Jeff Tuel will be seen setting the field on fire at Martin Stadium with a faint red-raider glow to it. That kid is one hellah talent. Just don’t give ALL the credit to Mike Leach even though it’s fair to expect MORE from the Crimson and Gray because after all, Mike is Mike. Give him a few years and Leach will be showing off his own version of the “Mike swoosh.”
We did discuss Stanford being one solidly built organization with one of the best recruiting seasons in its history under its belt as it heads into ’12. So why did they drop in the early polls 11 spots to land ranked at #15 on the board?
I’ll tell you why. Because BULL SH*T HAPPENS. What exactly has the same flavor of speculation gotten the prognosticators who predicted the demise of Stanford in recent years? It’s gotten them plenty of dullness, glib speech, foolish looking facial expressions and MAYBE loss of a few reputation points
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!
or now they are more popular than ever !!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!)
Consequently,that invites a lot of approval for feelgood sake and plenty of well-wishers’ slap on the back and good luck perhaps just for the sake of not living a losers life all the time.
Plenty of BOL’s and sympathy from
Ladies and Gentlemen, THE BEST PAC-12 handicapper on the planet, Conan. This guy hit over 70% last year on his PAC-12/West Coast games and in the many years I have known him (on the Internet), he is consistently in the 60 percentile.
What’s up Conan? Great to have you stop by. I can’t imagine there is a single word or thought concerning the PAC-12 that you haven’t already considered or dreamed about. HA!
You have your own personal PAC-12 podium waiting for you here at The Saturday Edge so you can muse at your leisure about all things West Coast. And that definitely includes the “perfect rack of female hooters.”
GoSooners and I look forward to your unique perspectives on college football handicapping. Thanks for stopping by and talk with you soon – Pez.
