2 Year Post Season Ban for USC Football

Kiffin will leave the morning of the first game to coach the Detroit Lions

Kiffin just became the west coast Mike Shula. I think most Bama fans knew going in with him that he was just there to keep the program together through the storm. So, chins up, USC fans. Five years after Bama's sanctions, they had an undefeated season followed by a national championship a year later.

Here is the interesting scenario. USC is banned from post season play for two years, as it stands now. What USC is not banned from is winning the Pac 10 title. If USC wins the Pac 10 title, which is not really that far fetched, does the Rose Bowl then have the right to choose any team they want to play in the Rose Bowl because the Pac 10 Champions are not allowed to play in it? While this situation is different from 2004, when USC went to Miami to play in the Orange Bowl to play for the NC, Cal had one loss, but was snubbed by the Rose Bowl in favor of a one loss Texas team. Could this happen, if the Pac 10 runner up has 3 losses and no one wants to see a 3 loss team in a BCS Game?

It could be especially since bowl game designations will have to change seeing as how there won't be a Big 12 Conference so their bowl tie ins will have to be reassigned.

My guess is the Rose Bowl will treat that situation the same as if the Pac 10 winner goes to the national championship game... SoCal, the Pac 10 winner, just won't be available to the Rose Bowl. The bowl ban doesn't have anything to do with determining who wins the Pac 10 regular season.

But I don't think we have to worry about SoCal winning the Pac 10 this year.

this was a joke ,will not deter usc or any other program that cheats. If you are going to punish them take the money they made for that season. It's all about the money!

**seaborneq** · 06-10-10, 05:27 PM

Ban the coaches from coaching for 5 years, minimum. Fire the AD, and make the president step down. That would deter some of this mess. Let the cheating school not play football for in front of fans for a couple of years too. Schools will still cheat, but not like they have been. Punish the school, punish the administration, and punish the coaches, its the only way.

School has to give up those wins, but the other teams don't get the wins. And in terms of the series record, it's as if those games were never played.

Vacating games isn't the same as forfeiting games. When a school forfeit games the opponents they faced get a victory. You understand now?

Thank you. It is a term I was not aware. But it is different than forfeiting for sure. I guess it has to be for the record books. So coaches are most likely the ones being punished by this because the wins don't show on their record. I wonder if the losses count in the opponent's coaches record?

**Collecting** · 06-12-10, 05:50 PM

Ouch.

You think Pete Carroll didn't know this was coming?

Pavy, I thnk Bobby Bowden was ahead of Joe Paterno in wis until the NCAA vacated some FSU wins which knocked him way back. But I don't think the opposing coaches get any credit since technically they didn't win.

No BadNina, JoPa had been in front of Dadgummit for the last few years now. He passed JoPa in the roaring 90's and gave it back within the last few years. JoePa wins this one, Dadgummit loses by TKO.

**bradleysnyder** · 06-13-10, 09:25 AM

it will be a few years before usc is what it was

WelL the NCAA helped JoePa out a lot by taking those wins away from Dadgummit.

And Auburn fans are trying to claim that title. Such a silly bunch of people.

I think they came down too hard on Sc. This ban could cripple them in the near future.

**kalamity85** · 06-15-10, 02:54 PM

given the circumstances the penalties do seem a bit harsh. that's why USC is appealing
