On a brisk Thursday night in which the nation fully expected, and rightfully so, some Trojans to really stick it to a bunch of Beavers, the Beavers pulled a shocker, came hard, and came out on top. Oregon State's improbable 27-20 victory makes it two in a row now over USC in Corvallis, and significantly shakes up the 2008 college football landscape. This was supposed an easy conquest for Southern Cal, but they came out flacid; their confidence, enthusiasm and morale appeared low from the start, and they could just never get it up.
The Trojans' vaunted offense, expected to come into Corvallis and mercilessly penetrate through and score, multiple times, on an inexperienced and previously slayed Beaver defense, was held in check for nearly the entire night. The Trojan defense, commonly considered to be the nation's best, and expected to at least provide a reservoir like protection and containment of any Beaver advances, was gashed, battered, broken and busted wide open by a resilient, grinding Beavers' offense. Trojan fans certainly learned that, despite how good the odds are, the only sure way to ensure you don't get exposed is to simply not step on the playing field at all, but we all know that's not a reasonable alternative.
The only question that remains now is whether the pollsters will actually be able to convince themselves to drop USC to #2. We all know they don't want to. Congratulations, Beavers. I would have paid a pretty penny to be up in that stadium of yours last night, dancing on your field, smelling your majestic Oregon aromas. Maybe some other time. 2010?
EA Sports' NCAA Football 2009 rankings. I guess I should clarify this a bit. You see, there are a lot of things that I think need to be changed about college football, and one of the first things I'd do as dictator is abolish all preseason polls; or at least their obvious, arguably inappropriate influence on the only rankings that really matter in the end: The final BCS standings.
Ask yourself if LSU could still make the 2007 BCS Championship Game, after two losses over their last 6 regular season games, if they'd started the season ranked 8th or 13th, for example, as opposed to 2nd. The big two preseason polls, as well as all the other media polls out there, pollute the college football landscape by gifting certain anointed teams an advantage based on what is essentially, somewhat arbitrary, conjecture. I mean, let's face it, these things come out well before any team has even sniffed a competitive playing field. What legitimate basis do the voters have to rank any team at that point?

Reverend Jeremiah Wright rushed back from his vacation in the Caribbean this week to make appearances on PBS with Bill Moyers and The National Press Club in order to reiterate that Barack Obama will be completely unelectable in the general election come this fall.
As young as Frumpzilla is (still less than 2 months), we're constantly trying to come up with new, quality additions and contributions to the site. Fresh content, polls, tag clouds videos, photos, ads, etc, but, to my knowledge, we've yet to do a "List".
Either that or she's just jealous, and jealousy is a bitch. A bitch that has the body of an adolescent boy.
Yep, apparently Paris and Kim have had a bit of a falling out. Reports indicate that Paris recently called into a Las Vegas radio show to vent about her former friend and fellow celebutart (patent pending); And Kim's ass (patent approved).
I don't know about you, but I perk up at the prospect of hearing Paris Hilton discuss her feelings on Kim Kardashian's rump. Unfortunately, this wasn't that kind of discourse. Paris apparently called Kardashian "disgusting", and described that (ass)et of hers as "cottage cheese stuffed in a trash bag." Naturally I became quite upset upon hearing this, which is why Frumpzilla has decided to champion Ms. Kardashian's cause, and her junk, after the jump...
