USC Game Thread: TUSK

[cipsucks]

Tim Undoubtedly Signs Kiwi

On to the game at hand. Southern Cal has three players north of 7 feet tall. Almeida and Ubel cannot get into foul trouble. Chances of that happening? Slim to none. Talley and Ray have to have strong performances, Shields has to play big in his first challenging role, and Parker can't be suffering from a headache. Darkhorse tonight? David Rivers.

Huskers are the home dog, but the program's future depends more on what happens off the court than on. That being said, for whatever reason, we seem to have the Trojan's number. Let's make it four in a row! Go Big Red!

Remember, everytime you hit refresh, go get a beer. (Hey, these new rules are confusing......)

I would be drunk before the first page was done cip.

[hskr4life]

Anyone with a Tai sighting yet?!?!

Nice choice, cip.

For my video selection tonight, I couldn't decide between a couple of choices, so I'll put them both up here. In honor of our talented guest from New Zealand, I thought I'd go with some things from his homeland. First, one of the great sporting traditions in the entire world, the All Blacks' (New Zealand's national rugby team) Haka. For those who don't know, the Haka is a traditional dance performed by the native Maori people. Performed originally by warriors before a battle, proclaiming their strength and prowess in order to intimidate their opposition, it has become more ceremonial in nature in modern times.

...and in a more musical vein, I've chosen this song from Split Enz. Enjoy the game everybody!

Oh, and also, as for drinking games, I was thinking we should have to get (and slam) a beer for every time Tai Webster, a NZ flag, or other sign is sited on the TV broadcast.

Cheers!

Miles just said on pregame Parker doesn't have a concussion, will play tonight but isn't 100%. I think Peltz will see a good amount of time. You can do it, kid.

I'm telling you, the whiskey Nyquil chasers work.

[Bugeaters1]

Bad liver had to quit

I'm telling you, the whiskey Nyquil chasers work.

Now that sounds like a cocktail that's got my name written all over it!

[cipsucks]

C'mon Huskers. Let's kick some Pac 12 butt tonight!

[HuskerFever]

TAI-me to play some ball!

[tcp]

Why don't you ask him, what's going on? Why don't you ask him who's on his throne?

Don't say that you love me (aiiiiieeeeee!)

GBR!

Hey, tcp. Thought you might like the music. On the drinking games tonight, feel free to light up whenever.....

[HuskerFever]

Parker is still limping after that 3-pointer.

[FredsSlacks]

He seems to be ok. Just needs to walk it off.

[HuskerFever]

Looks like this will be a tightly officiated game.

[Bugeaters1]

Same ref has made all the foul calls

[cipsucks]

15:47 mark in the first half. Huskers up 5-5.

[49r]

Man, I'm trying REAL HARD to hold off cracking that first beer, but the pace tonight is making me nervous!

[49r]

I know, Kent would just tell me I need another steaming hot cup of coffee!

[cipsucks]

Talley!

[hal9000]

Way to battle Rivers

[cipsucks]

I know, Kent would just tell me I need another steaming hot cup of coffee!

With some kahlua......

[49r]

7-0 run! Just need 18 more
