The Defenseless Rose Bowl

 

Watching USC verses Texas last night was almost a joke.  This is the number one and two teams in the nation and neither one of them showed up with their defensive lines.   I kept screaming at the television as one of the teams would get the ball from a kickoff and three to four plays later they were in the end zone.  I do believe that I only saw maybe two or three punt returns total because nobody was getting stopped. 

 

Texas won because their defense finally showed up on USC 's final possession and finally stopped them from not only scoring but from getting a first down on a fourth down attempt.  With under a minute to go, USC unsurprisingly let Young find the end zone for one last touch down and a three point win.   There were over a thousand yards gained in this game.  Pathetic!  I realize that they both have good offensives, but honestly folks the defensive lines should be able to read a play every now and then and make it at least look like they all aren't freshman in high school playing for the first time.
