You thinking that comment was maybe a weeeee bit premature yet?

Oh, and while I have no love for the Oregon Ducks, there's a major dropoff at QB between Kellen Clemens who was lost for the season in game 8 and backups David Dixon and Brady Leaf - you didn't see that offense at it's best in the Holiday Bowl because of it.

I don't get going for it there- the long field, make Young go 80 yards with a punt - instead of a gamble like that.

I think it was the right call. If you make it, you win. Who do you like more if you're carroll, your offense or your defense?

Hmmm... maybe USC should have blitz a bit more during the rest of the game?

hindsight is 20/20. Young has been unstoppable ... i don't think the extra yardage matters compared to the chance of not letting him on the field again.
