UT rolls into L.A. Memorial Coliseum at 5:30 PDT (7:30 PDT) this evening, conjuring up memories of the 2006 Rose Bowl in which Texas brought home the BCS National Championship:

Vince Young ain't gonna be walking out of that tunnel tonight, but will Tom Herman's charges rise to the occasions? Or will Bevo get be-otched on a Fox national telecast as most predict?

One of the few games on TV today worth checking into. I would not be shocked to see if turn into a good game.

I remember watching that game in a northern MN bar in 2006. One of the few games I have specific memories about because it was so good. Top 3 games I've ever seen, easily.

I feel asleep on the couch and woke up to Texas raising the trophy. One of the worst moments of my life.

On tonight's game...Texas gets P'owned.

I think Texas will keep it close until the 4th quarter. Hope im wrong, but USC is too much for this young Texas team.

UT, after a goal line stand, get the ball back on their own 0.5 yard line. Score remains tied 0-0 at 4:32 of of a punt free, turnover free1Q. Herman also started a Freshman QB, so I assume USC has no film on him.

And he promptly tosses an interception. Texas D has really come to play. Wonder how long they can keep that up.

USC is a really nice team.

Not sure how ISU's going to match up with UT. Athleticism has never been a problem for them.

So, purely as self-interested Cyclone fans, what outcome should we be hoping for?

- Should we hope that TX gets smoked so that they are discouraged and that makes us more likely to win a week from Tuesday?

- Should we hope that TX somehow pulls this out so they get overconfident and overlook us?

UT's D has definitely shown up. The Trojan Men took over on their own 2 following an excellent punt by the Longhorns, Now they went 3 and out. The Longhorns are 1st and 10 on the USC 41. Can they eek out some points to make this interesting?

I'll go with a win and over confidence.

Their O line is not good
