Ducks Attack Message Board Forum

Difficult to me to decide who I want more to win (or perhaps who I want more to lose ). Since it's between two 2012 Duck foes, it's a wash on the BCS computers' SOS score for the Ducks. I'd love to see USC's national title dreams get UNEQUIVOCALLY crushed. But I'd also -- maybe especially because I live in Husky territory -- like to see the Huskies and their fans further lose confidence in the team with a decisive loss. Sarkisian does tend to play his former team well . . .

If you think we will go undefeated, you want teams like USC, OSU, Stanford to win as much as possible.

If you think we might lose a game (or two) on the way, then root against teams like USC, Stanford, OSU, so even with a loss or two, we can win the Pac-12.

I subscribe to the 'better safe than sorry' school of thought so I'll swallow hard and say "Go Huskies".

My general approach as well. Plus I think if we win out anyway, we'll be in regardless. So go huskies.

Rooting for USC all the way. I want the USC-Oregon game to be a match-up of top 10 teams.

I think USC puts it together against UW. First signature win.

I agree with all of this

I dislike both teams so it doesn't really matter to me. I wouldn't be surprised if the poodles steal a win here though.

I don't want UW fans thinking the Oregon game was a fluke. I want them to suck and know it. Go USC.

I will be rooting for the Huskies to lose because they are the Huskies. I will not, however, be able to actively root for USC to win. I will just have to skip that game if it is on.

I would like to see the poodles not go to a bowl game this year. Gameday Champions was enough for them this season imho.

i can't think of one conceivable reason why a duck fan would root for washington to win this game.

I don't think I can actually "root" for either team to win. But I would be ok, as indicated above, with USC having their "unfinished business" season absolutely finished, at least in terms of their barely flickering nat'l title hopes, and then hopefully leading to a "wheels coming off" season compared to all the preseason Trojan hype. Ultimately, I probably will revert to my old standby antipathy for the Huskies and my desire that their program stay down down down as long as possible. But I guess I'll find something to be pleased about either way.

Hey, hey guys. What'd USC do to you, huh?

USC gave a degree to my former jerk-boss.
