USC should get the 4th playoff spot even if they lose to Utah again in the PAC title game.

Ohio State should not be rewarded for watching championship week from the couch and USC should not be punished for actually earning a championship game slot. In addition, Ohio State has a 1-win resume: beating Penn State. USC has a 3-win resume: they beat Notre Dame, Oregon State, and UCLA.

Unbiased and logical, but that is not how voting is done with those who have allegiances.

osu alum has probably sent these voters their very expensive Christmas gifts by now,,,

I messed up. Ohio State has a 2 game resume, I forgot the game at the beginning of the season against Notre Dame. A common opponent whom both Ohio State and USC beat by 11 points.

I will add USC to my list, along with TCU, as was THE BIGGEST USC FAN in my youth--we miss you Sam, and need TCU to ruin everyone's season.

Sam "Bam" Cunningham

In 1970, he was part of USC's "all-black" backfield – the first one of its kind in Division I (NCAA) history – that included quarterback Jimmy Jones and running back Clarence Davis. He had a notable debut performance 135 yards, two touchdowns) against an all-white University of Alabama football team, as USC beat Alabama 42–21 in Birmingham on September 12, 1970. His performance in the game was reportedly a factor in convincing the University of Alabama and its fans to let Coach Bear Bryant integrate Southern football. Jerry Claiborne, a former Bryant assistant, said, "Sam Cunningham did more to integrate Alabama in 60 minutes than Martin Luther King Jr. did in 20 years.

Sam was a good man, as was Anthony Davis and Charles White.

Sam 25 TDs in 3 years, no one flew like Sam
Anthony 46 TDs and 4K total yards in 3 seasons
Charles 53 TDs, 7K total yards, 3,905 rushing yards his last two years

10 Rose Bowl Wins in 14 years, who else did that?!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Part of my fan commitment to USC was that I hated nd, al, ok, neb, osu and mich,,, and still do.

Back then the fairness of polls were much worse for west coast teams, part of the problem was almost no games were televised on east coast.
It is better today, but still needs more fairness.

Like having our big games televised at 7:30 or 5:30 Pac time. Still east coast bias. It wouldn't surprise me a bit if Caleb Williams lost.

I am equally concerned that Reggie got screwed, the only one to get screwed, he deserves reinstatement, and I will write to TRUMP to request this on JAN 20, 2025.

Reggie is a good dood, gave HUGELY MUCH MORE than he took, someone had it in for him.

The athletes at UCLA who played together in the 1939 school year were:

• Jackie Robinson, who would break the color barrier in Major League Baseball in 1947 and was one off the RB's

• Kenny Washington, who would have won the heisman but black players were not allowed back then to win the trophy, who took down the color barrier of the National Football League when he played for the Los Angeles Rams in 1946.

• Woody Strode, who would join Washington with the Rams and later become an accomplished actor in movies such as Spartacus, Sergeant Rutledge, and The Professionals.

• Ray Bartlett, who would go on to serve on the Pasadena police department (at that time, only the second African American) and as a prominent Los Angeles area civic leader.

• And then there was the fifth, Tom Bradley, who would transform Los Angeles into a global city during his 20 years as mayor. He also would make history as L.A.’s first black mayor



When Jackie Robinson played at Pasadena High my dad played at Glendale High. The schools were in the same conference. My dad played DE and hit Jackie so hard on a tackle it knocked him out of the game. His claim to fame.

Had it in for USC. The south and east don't like teams out here to dominate which USC did for awhile.
An alumni paid rent for Reggie's parents house over 100 miles away in San Diego. Reggie didn't live there. They took 30 scholarships away, the National Championship away, and his heisman. fOSU gets caught cheating with 3 players and the coach new about and they get a slap on the hand.
