As many of you might have read USC coach Pete Carroll has told the NCAA he would forfeit 2 timeouts for his RIVALRY game against UCLA in order to wear HOME colors at the Rose Bowl.
Carroll says it would be an excellent tradition.
To that i say, hooray for Pete Carroll... for letting UCLA know that theres no football game in LA that USC should not be considered a home team even if its cross city rival. In a sense it's an excellent idea throw some log into an already bitter feud. It's no Georgia vs. Florida rivalry, but hey you get the sense Caroll and staff are trying to establish USC as a place not only of dominance and legends but that of INTENSE rivalries, fire up the PAC-10 so it can get more credibility than the many other conferences as the SEC, BIG 10 and the BIG 12.
lets just hope his idea doesn't back fire, and he needs the timeouts when it matters.
not likely!
