I know the football situation you are referring to but I have no idea how you think it applies to the inauguration.

USC beats the shit out of Ohio State and all of USC's fans are filled with hope and confidence that a championship season is on the horizon, only to be let down in epic proportions when they lose to Oregon State.

Obama leaves everyone with that hope and confidence, which will only be followed by failure and letdown?

I think thats what he is getting at?

I don't see how Obama compares to the USC situation at all. Obama is taking over a huge mess that there is no chance of cleaning up for years and years.

Obama is more like the new head coach of a team that has gone 2-9 for the last 8 years and has several sanctions from the NCAA hanging over its head.

I don't doubt there are people who think everything is going to be clean and shiny in a month's time but they are idiots and, I strongly suspect, a tiny minority. Maybe I'm delusional but I think people are smarter than that.
