You should already be used to close calls

Rory MacDonald, TrojanWire

The College Football Index highlights past close calls from the 2004 and 2005 seasons:

Five Deep Breaths, courtesy 2004
3: Winning margin, USC-Stanford, last weekend in September.
6: Winning margin, USC-Cal, very next game.
8: Winning margin, USC-Oregon State, first weekend in November.
5: Winning margin, USC-UCLA, last game of season.
36: Winning margin, USC-No. 1 Oklahoma Orange Bowl, for the national title.

Five More Deep Breaths, courtesy 2005
4: Arizona State lead with 3:44 left in game, USC-ASU, first weekend in October.
7: USC lead early in the 4th quarter, USC-Arizona, very next game.
3: Winning margin, Northern Indiana Affair, very next game.
6:22: Time remaing in game when USC took lead, USC-Fresno State.
47: Winning margin, USC-No. 11 UCLA, very next game.

Hang in there Trojan fans. ASU usually quits after a good punch in the mouth.

But if it's another close call, hold that breath, the imminent trouncing will just come on another Saturday... followed by one, big, collective exhale.
