USC vs UCLA? Blame Obama and the Curse of the Liberals
This year's USC vs. UCLA game is fraught with danger for the men of Troy.
USC football: the best bowl record, the most Rose Bowl appearances (and wins), the most Hall of Famers, the most first-round draft picks, the most NFL-draft picks, the most Super Bowl players, the most pro players, and yet...
USC did not look good against Oregon or Washington. These losses could be dismissed as aberrations. We were playing against a Washington team coached by our own staff from last season. The Oregon game was played at the deafening Autzen Stadium, and the Ducks have a Heisman-potential quarterback in Jeremiah Masoli (also we seem to lose to one of the Oregon schools every season lately).
Who was President elect and President during that debacle? None other than the liar, coward, socialist from Arkansas, Bill Clinton.
Go back to the glory days of the Reagan/Bush years. The years 1980 -1990 were characterized by 5 wins for USC , 5 for UCLA and one tie, a dead heat until the rise of Clinton and USC's longest losing streak of the rivalry. But the Reagan era had the greatest game of the rivalry during the entire decade, and it was a glorious one for the Trojans. Undefeated, second-ranked USC (9-0) and quarterback Rodney Peete met 9-1, sixth-ranked UCLA and quarterback Troy Aikman with the 1989 Rose Bowl on the line. UCLA had been ranked #1 before losing to Washington State. A possible Heisman trophy for Peete or Aikman was on the line. The attendance set a regular-season Rose Bowl record of 100,741. Rodney Peete was stricken with measles the week before the game and had been to the hospital. But he managed to lead the Trojans over the Bruins, 31-22. It would set the classic #1 Notre Dame vs #2 USC match up the following week. Peete and Aikman would finish 2nd and 3rd in the Heisman balloting.
Rodney Peete is perhaps best known as being married to that girl from "21 Jump Street," while Troy Aikman went on to Superbowl winning NFL glory with the Dallas Cowboys, yet Peete won. Why? Reagan helped USC dash the potential for a Bruin national championship.
How will the Trojans fare against a resurgent UCLA with traitor Norm Chow calling the offense? This game will determine the Trojan's season and potentially the future of the Matt Barkley era. USC beat Ohio State, which was fantastic. 'SC did it in Columbus and showed that they could pull it out in the final moments. We, once again, beat Notre Dame in South Bend setting up what appears to be Charlie Weiss' swan song with the Irish.
We have a Democrat in the White House, and statistically that does not bode well for 'SC.
The record against the Bruins during the last Democrat reign is 0-8.

Stanford is another story. USC seemed to give up in the fourth quarter and played like Bruins. The defense let Stanford play smashmouth football up and down the field, and only showed a glimmer of heart when they stopped the Stanford two-point conversion in the waning moments of the game.
Why this lackluster performance? One man: Barack Hussein Obama.
USC does well with a Republican in the White House. USC gets clobbered when a Democrat is running our country into the ground.
USC possessed the Victory Bell for the seven football seasons from 1999 to 2005 and then won every game since. Who was President during this period? George W. Bush was President elect and then Commander-in-Chief. This was USC's longest football winning streak over UCLA (only broken with the 2006 game when Bush was acting like a Democrat with his illegal alien amnesty proposal). The USC streak followed directly after UCLA's longest football winning streak against USC, when UCLA won eight straight games from 1991 to 1998. Why this lackluster performance? One man: Barack Hussein Obama.

What Trojan team will show up at the Coliseum?
ELVISNIXON is predicting that USC will dig deep and overcome the liberal Democrat curse. USC will find itself sometime Saturday night. A resurgent offense will overpower the gutty bruins and pull off a victory against the state schoolers who live off of taxpayer money. Ted Kennedy will roll in his grave.
USC 28- UCLA 10
