When USC plays Michigan State, it might be hard to tell the mascots apart.
The difference is the Trojan mascot looks happier than Sparty because he is smiling.
Both teams used to have the same throwback mascot. The only difference was their names. Michigan State had Sparty. USC had Butch.
- It might be surprising but no one on the current Michigan State team has advanced past the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament in their careers.
- Here are the odds on who wins the East Region according to BetOnline:
| East Region | |||
| Purdue | 9/4 | (+225) | |
| Marquette | 17/4 | (+425) | |
| Tennessee | 17/4 | (+425) | |
| Duke | 8/1 | (+800) | |
| Kansas State | 10/1 | (+1000) | |
| Kentucky | 12/1 | (+1200) | |
| Memphis | 16/1 | (+1600) | |
| Michigan State | 16/1 | (+1600) | |
| Florida Atlantic | 20/1 | (+2000) | |
| USC | 20/1 | (+2000) | |
| Providence | 33/1 | (+3300) | |
| Oral Roberts | 66/1 | (+6600) | |
| Louisiana-Lafayette | 100/1 | (+10000) | |
| Vermont | 100/1 | (+10000) | |
| Montana State | 200/1 | (+20000) | |
| Fairleigh Dickinson | 300/1 | (+30000) | |
| Texas Southern | 300/1 | (+30000) | |

Some of our players were injured when we lost to Michigan State in the 1988 Rose Bowl.
That’s not an excuse. That’s a fact!

Good for you Frankie. SUCC didn’t score more points the Michigan St., also a major fact. No doubt you lost $$$$ on the bozos. Oh well, tough titty.
BTW Frankie, I see “The Piglet” signed a chump change, 1 year contract with the 9er’s. Just another former bozo QB taking the elevator down to NFL, professional oblivion. Some things don’t change. That’s also a fact.

40% of the calls will go against USC, so there is no hope of victory. . . Unless 60% of the goodwill for Tom Izzo evaporates due to his constant beratement of the refs and turns them all against Sparty. At least George can’t get involved in this season of screw you for leaving me moment.

Kellyanne said it best. There are facts, damn facts then alternative facts. Like Oedipus thinking his mom was real hot when there were plenty of available fish to find.

OJ was spectacular as always.
I got to play in that game as a sophomore Linebacker and got my first varsity interception!
We scored on the subsequent drive!
When we checked into the hotel on that Friday before the game, i was in the lobby and saw Coach McKay walk past me and exit out the front door and into the car driven by the MS Head Coach Duffy Daugherty . I thought here’s my Coach going out to have a few drinks with the enemy’s coach. It was pretty brilliant but somewhat bizarre for an 18 year old to comprehend!

Hey Owns, with Clark hurt and the rest of the team being painfully average, what chance does UCLA have of winning a championship? Or does beating USC qualify as the only achievable success for UCLA?
