Trojans Unsportsmanlike?

by 78Bruin on Oct 12, 2007 2:17 PM PDT

The only college football pleasure I had this week was watching Trojan Rewind the other nite. Needless to say, I skipped Bruin Rewind which should be re-named Bruin Unwind.

Immediately after the game, the Trojans blew off the traditional congratulatory meeting of the squads in the center of field and instead sulked off to the tunnel with nary a handshake. Even Trojan shill Pete Arbogast said on the air that he was embarassed for his Trojans.

Don't really believe that was the "humanitarian" thing to do. Pom Pom looked even more shellshocked than he did on 12/2/06... if that's possible.

Cameras caught female fans bawling and other fans looking like they just witnessed armageddon. Many remained in their seats, numbed in disbelief. Great, great stuff.

Never was the following cliche ever more appropriate....the bigger they are, the harder they fall.

Alas, the joy of this monumental upset is tarnished by the sad state of our football program. But why should I be Gloomy Gus? We're in first place and we beat Stanford...in their crib. Those losses to Utah and Notre Dame are just a blip on the radar. We've got a whole new season ahead of us. 6 and 0 baby!! Can't you feel it?!?!

I realized when I read this post

that I saw them walk straight off the field after the game, but didn't even notice it because it is exactly what I expected from the Trojans.

I will say though that they are not alone. After the Notre Dame game I saw 3 or 4 of our players walk straight off the field. Not as many as SC, but still something KD needs to adress to those few players. I can't remember who they were, but I remember talking about it with a couple fans that we sit next to at games. We all were disgusted that our players couldn't show some sportsmanship to the team that came out and played fair, just flat out whipped them.
