So all last week Trojans all around the internets went on a classic binge of whining and excuse making on why their program cannot count to 8. I decided to go ahead and try to put all the Trojan widely heard excuses at one place (with an assist from a BRO thread (currently on page 4) where you can see the excuses listed in titles of that thread)

• Bruins were just lucky
  
• It was the ref's fault who were conspiring to keep the Trojans from BCS game by calling all the false starts
  
• Michigan paid the refs (more than SC could)
  
• Florida paid the refs (more than SC could)
  
• The Rose Bowl sod was too wet

So what else is missing here? If there are other excuses not included in this list, please put them in the comment section. Here is something to refresh your memory a bit. Got this from the LA Times photo gallery:




What are other Trojan excuses you have been hearing about making excuses for consistently choking on 4th downs. List them here!

This way we will have a ready made template for Trojan excuses whenever they lose the next game, which may come as soon as their next trip to the Rose Bowl.

Go Bruins!!!
