Produced 30 All-American first teamers
42 NFL draft picks (including 11 first rounders, with a No. 1 selection in Carson Palmer and a No. 2 in Reggie Bush)


It's funny but since you've been posting, you keep on saying Penn St. will beat USC in the Rose Bowl but when is the last time you ever saw Penn St. in any significant bowl in the last 5 years?  And before you answer, the Alamo Bowl isn't a significant national bowl game, more of a CIF quality game.

I admit it, USC's worst foe is themselves, it's been a bane of the Trojans for years.  OSU didn't beat USC, USC beat themselves but the fact doesn't change, when USC comes out to play, they are undefeatable.  Just ask Ohio St.

Hey, how many USC are still active in the NFL and how many from Ohio State.

As far as Ohio St., I see #1 pick Bobby Carpenter failing on special teams for the Dallas Cowboys often.  Ted Ginn is on the phins wasting a jersey number.  Heisman Winner Troy Smith is uh, I'm not sure what he is doing. :confused:

35 players for USC; 37 for Ohio St and for our little friend B17Skull, only 24 from Penn St.  In the 2008 draft, 4 Trojans went in the 1st round, wonder if B17Skull knows how many Twitney Lions went in the 1st round?

this isn't about the lions.  It is about how terrible usc really is.  Playing in what has been a weak conference for years now.  Penn st. can lose and i wont care, but they are the best team in the the big 10 right now.

35 Trojans are on active rosters in the NFL.

Look at USC's schedule for the last 8 years and tell me they've been playing weak teams and then compare it to Penn States schedule.  USC consistantly plays more Top 25 teams each year than Penn State does.

Ack-ack is right about that.  PSU or big ten has been a week conference, especially in the past three years.  And USC has had a tough schedule, but not compare to SEC teams.
