...And we probably gave Reggie Bush the Heisman.

It was a bit heartbreaking to watch Fresno State's 50-42 loss to No. 1 USC, considering how many chances the Bulldogs had to take control. But hey, sh-t happens. And so do interceptions.

Of course, the Bulldogs can take solace that they scored more points against the Trojans than any other opponent during their 32 (er, 33) game winning streak, and that it required an amazing, 8-zillion-yard game from Reggie Bush to give USC the victory. For those of us who stayed up till 2:30 a.m. on the East Coast, and for the West Coasters who actually got the game on their TV, it proved that Fresno State is up there among the best teams in the nation right now. Whaddya think? Top 10?

And to the national media: The next time the Bulldogs play a big game, let's think of a new angle other than "blue-collar town pins hopes and dreams on college football team." That story's old.
