Here I was blaming USC's loss to Stanford on the players for reading their own press clippings. Now Pete Carroll says it was his fault for keeping Booty in the game with a broken hand. I'm sorry, I thought Booty played offense, not defense?

A few years ago, Pete Carroll bristled at a reporter's question with the response of "This is not the Norm Chow offense. This is the USC offense."

More prophetic words were never spoken.
