In the 90s this was USC all the time, mediocre (or worse).  Frankly between the LA schools, UCLA is the one that actually should be a better gig.  Similar historic reputation other than the Carroll years, better location in the city, better alumni base, better talent pool (in the broadest sense of the word), better academics, and fewer douche bags.

I love how Herbstreit has to weigh every word he says. Dude's been getting crap from Buckeyes for years for being 'too neutral' i.e. not enough of an OSU homer, so if he's too positive about Purdue's achievement or even shows that he might be happy for the massive underdogs..they'd probably try to get him kicked out of the alumni association.

Holy crap Rondale Moore impressive even in the interview. Can tell he's a freshman, but kid has his coachspeak/nothing-for-you press game on point. Wish he had been a Wolverine.

The UCLA Arizona game: the two announcers have a ton of stories and research and plan on spewing all of it. Not much if any analysis. Sometimes the stories flow over things like first down and who did what. I guess at this hour, that is what you get.
