Bush? Young is the best player in College Football.

All season long I've thought Bush was the Man.

After tonight, Young may be the best college player i've ever seen.

It is one thing to dominate a game against a cupcake school. But the national championship? Never have I seen anything like what happened tonight.

screw ESPN, ABC, and the rest of the media who have been calling USC the best team ever, you is teh suck! ROFL

Well I don't think USC sucks but yeah the whole tournament against the top 10 teams of all-time that Sportscenter did was kind of premature. I mean wait to see if they win the championship first lol.

and USC technically should have won, because one of Texas' touchdowns was clearly false (the one where Young's knee was down way before he lateralled).

Yeah but they would have had first and goal from like the four anyway. Considering the game Young had I think they had a good chance of scoring a TD anyway. Don't make excuses. Like I said Carroll gave them a 60-yard field with less than two minutes and Young obviously was serious about getting vengence for the Heisman. That's why Texas won.

O and I was actually rooting for USC and I HATE Texas.

if im not wrong TX go an int and it was called incomplet (USC TD wouldnt have happen)

Well, the stupid announcer said that the "ground cant cause a fumble", but I am pretty sure the ground can cause an incomplete pass. :)

I think the call was right. The ball bounced out as soon as he hit the ground. Incomplete.

But, I disagree that the Texas TD shouldn't have counted. I mean, fine, take it back. Texas was going to score on that drive anyway. :) THERE IS NO STOPPING VINCE YOUNG!

wow, what a game. after being at the rose bowl last year, and watching VY barely beat my michigan team, now all you USC fans know what it's like.

now how classless was leinart? that was pretty sad IMO. lost a lot of respect there. turns out he's just a spoild rich kid after all.

and congrats on your ONE national championship USC. now back to the ranks of mediocrity you go.

It's awesome going to USC :)

I'm pretty sure going to USC would be awesome even without sports. ;)

Anyway, I missed Leinart's comments. If he did say that, that's pretty classless. It's not as though he himself lost the game, I'm not sure what he's getting so defensive about.

It sure makes you think what could have been if USC kicked a field goal instead of going for it in the first quarter, and if Bush didn't try that lateral and give away the ball on the 20 in the second.

Times like these I wish I went to a school with big-time athletics.

I go to WVU. Imagine what its like to win a bowl game? LOL :)

Congrats to Texas too. I figured Vince Young would have a coming out party tonight considering he got shafted pretty hard in the Heisman race. Glad to see him take control late in the game and end any doubt about who is the best player in college football

    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough"

      By s0nic69 · Posted

      I don't understand the vision. Do people really want to buy a new computer from Dell with 6 browsers installed? We all keep asking for Microsoft to stop having so much junk on their OS, and adding a bunch of browsers seems to go against that. Ideally, we would just be asked what browser we want during OOBE but Google is just going to pay Dell a bunch of money to include Chrome. Additionally, would you want your phones to start including all the browsers too when you get them? The only thing I ever wanted was to be able to uninstall IE or edge and I believe you are now able to. I do agree that microsoft needs to chill with their "are you sure you don't want to try edge before you install chrome" ads when going to download chrome.

      The funny thing here is that like 70% or so of the web browser users use 'Google Chrome' as web browser. What I don't understand is that why on earth would ANYONE choose 'Google Chrome' on Windows when 'Microsoft Edge' is not just better in most things, but it's already there right out of the box for the Windows users. Microsoft Edge has less data collection (yes, that's a fact), less RAM usage and is more optimized for Windows (as it's a Microsoft product) right out of the box. I'm sure you will come with the argument of bloat in Microsoft Edge. Sure, but most of that can be fixed with a simple tool (there are many good ones out there for this). Yes, that require a couple of clicks in the same way as it requires several clicks to install 'Google Chrome'. And I'm sure you really love the 4 GB of AI-slop 'Google Chrome' is downloading without you agreeing to it. Fun right? Sure, the way Microsoft is pushing Microsoft Edge on users might not be the best way of doing it and might need to change. But I would never choose 'Google Chrome' over 'Microsoft Edge' today anyways. I'm sure there was a period back in the days when 'Google Chrome' actually was better in most things, but that period is not today.
    • JetBrains rolls out IntelliJ IDEA update with Markdown preview fixes and more

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      JetBrains rolls out IntelliJ IDEA update with Markdown preview fixes and more by David Uzondu Image via JetBrains IntelliJ 2026.1.3 from JetBrains has landed, bringing several highly requested bug fixes that target common UI glitches and terminal rendering issues. If you run tmux inside the integrated terminal, the IDE no longer renders the cursor above the active line. The Markdown preview bug, which was fixed in this release, had annoyed developers for quite some time, as the preview pane failed to render images saved outside the project directory. Instead of displaying the actual image, the IDE simply showed a broken image icon, a problem that stuck around for two years before this update. Over on Windows, developers running WSL can now use wsl.exe to spin up their environments without losing terminal functionality. In previous builds, launching a terminal shell with something like wsl.exe -d ubuntu inside a Windows-based project broke both shell integration and active process detection. Other bug fixes in this release include: An issue where Gradle sync incorrectly reported success as a failure on WSL when using Gradle 9.5.0. A syntax highlighting bug that flagged valid Java for-loop initialization blocks with multiple statements as incorrect. A warning bug that triggered a false non-null local variable alert when using JSpecify annotations. A database generation bug that hid the option to use a DELETE statement instead of a TRUNCATE checkbox. A Kotlin highlighting failure where an assertion error in the Gradle redundant library inspection broke error highlighting. A UI bug where the ComboBox popup lacked a maximum height restriction. A Snowflake syntax error where DataGrip failed to support the "create temp" command. A Svelte syntax parsing failure that incorrectly flagged quotes inside inline expressions. A VCS repository manager deadlock that triggered thread pool exhaustion. A memory leak where the LazyTree component kept all previous versions of a tree in memory. IntelliJ 2026.1.3 is the third bug fix release for the IntelliJ 2026.1 series. The first one landed back in April with a fix for the WSL Python interpreter freeze, another fix for guest participants using Emmet abbreviations, and corrected WildFly server deployment errors.
