With UCLA losing to BYU 59-0, it once again highlights what might be Pete Carroll's most impressive accomplishment: His worst loss at USC is 11 points (27-16 to Notre Dame, 2001) and it is the only game he ever lost by double figures.

This fact right here CLEARLY illustrates the difference between USC and UCLA football, haha. And the Bruins thought this was going to be a big turnaround year...

59 is conveniently the magic number. It only took Rick Neuheisel & his dream team 2 games to match the total number of points that USC has lost by in the 7 plus years that Pete Carroll has been coach. Yep, 14 losses by 59 points. I think that the monopoly may be safe for a while. Fill up the passion bucket.

That game at Oregon State a few years ago looked like a certain rout and USC came back to almost tie or win it. I think hopes ended with a Booty tipped pass in that one too. The ASU game where Leinart & Co trailed like 21-3 at half in the desert heat looked like a possible blowout loss too. USC actually won that going away. Good thing Erickson was not the coach then.

Wait, something is wrong here. Wolfeee, did you fall and hit your head? I can't believe it, SW has actually said something "positive" about Coach. First, he didn't call PC "Caesar" and he actually pointed out something that we all know, and that PC is good and successful. Wow, I'm really scared now that Wolfeee has changed his tune. Is he coming back from the "dark side". Fight On!

Does 13-9 ring a bell? Still, 59-0 has a nice ring to it.
