Originally Posted By hayuk Thanks a bunch for the pictures, I really found them fun to look at. We useually go to the world in the early/mid Dec time frame when crowds are typically quite manageable.

One of these days, we'll finally get a head-to-head match up and we can show the SEC how football is really played. Until then, we can just agree to disagree. : )>> Unfortunately for your Trojans, USC blew a game to a much weaker foe and it cost them a chance at playing for a national championship instead of an annual visit to far off Pasadena.

But a lot more open space.
