USC beat Illinois on Tuesday in their 32nd appearance at the Rose bowl. The game was another example of USC's commitment to excellence in football. I must admit I am happy my team won but I was shocked at some of the calls made against our competitors. Unable to make it out to the Rose Bowl, we watched from my friend's 60" TV; even the truer than life HDTV would not show us the "unsportsmanlike" conduct which continually penalized the Illinois team. Were the referees just out for them or could it be that this team that made it all the way to the grand daddy of bowl games lost their manners with their luggage on the airplane? Can anyone explain what happened?
