USC plays a wide-open, flexible and opportunistic style of football which triumphed over Lloyd Carr's rigidity. Michigan has better players with greater skills, but the coaching staff did not make the necessary adjustments to deploy them effectively. The old cliche rings true: In the Pac-10, coaches play to win; in the Big Ten, coaches play not to lose. The "trench" attitude did not serve Michigan's fans and athletes well. If I had been Henne, I would have been in the face of the offensive co-ordinator demanding that he make changes, tighten the o-line, give me two more seconds----just two more---to get my passes off, rather than being sacked so painfully, so many times. The receivers were in place and often wide open. Flexibility is crucial. Coaches marks: Carroll, A. Carr, D. End of story.

Well it seems like everytime they play each other it is in USC's backyard. I know that the rose bowl is not their home field but with it being so close to the USC campus, USC doen't have to travel across the county like Michigan does. So until they play somewhere else this question can not be truly answered. I'm a Michigan fan. We will see how good USC and Pete Carroll is when they travel to Ohio St. in 2008!

Gee, I wonder.
If the Wolverines are so mighty, should it matter that they play in Pasadena? If Michigan didn't want to show up, they should have declined the invitation and let Wisconsin go; at least the Badgers know how to win the Rose Bowl.
USC showed they're a much better team than Michigan. We weren't quite sure even though USC played a much tougher schedule; now we're pretty certain.

USC by a long way. They have the greatest coach and best team players in the PAC 10. This team will be #1 pre season. They played Michigan in the Rose Bowl and whipped 'em good!

i might want to assert an SEC crew, likely LSU. Arkansas is not any extra effective than they were very last year and all of us understand what befell between both a year in the past... not fairly... yet LSU is the perfect crew in argueably the perfect convention in college football. massive Ten communities might want to fall short, they don't have the protection mandatory to keep USC from scoring lower back and lower back. i imagine LSU has the perfect danger of forestalling them with a superb protection and a effective offense, suggested by a much off Florida. UCLA consistently stands a danger inspite of the indisputable fact that. They did very last year and they are USC's best rival. Rival video games are consistently balanced (extra or a lot less) inspite of ways strong both of the communities is merely because bragging rights are on the line for an complete year.

I don't know. I would probably have to say Michigan, but the only real way to know is if they played each other. Then we could find out exactly who is better.

Oh, DEFINITELY Michigan. The Rose Bowl was CLEARLY fixed, there was a MAJOR CONSPIRACY against Michigan.
