Is Young that good, or was USC's defense that bad? It seemed as if the Trojans were playing a prevent defense through the entire game, but forgot (or didn't know of) Young's 160 or so yards against Michigan in the 2005 Rose Bowl, which Texas won. The blitz was nonexistent for the Trojans until the last handful of plays.
No, SC didn't show up for the game. At least their defensive playbook didn't show up.
As for Leinart = Leaf, I wouldn't be surprised. Former SC QB Carson Palmer, meanwhile, is taking the Bengals to the playoffs. But he's got class. I never thought as much about Leinart, especially with that "...we're the better team comment."
If you're the better team, why did you lose?
