This was predictable because the huskies had a history of winnig which meant they probaly had a good team which gave them the ods and which why they won
Thomas schulz
cool pic and at least the huskies stoped there losing streak
Kenny E cooooooollllllll
It was somewhat predictable because he told me what happened and he gave me information for it to be predictable.
by sara bowen
well its predictable because the one team has a higher score
rachel
The result was somewhat predictible because USC has better recruits every year. [sorry if this is a bad answer but my family and I dont know a thing about football]
sorry,

It's Fleet again. YAAAY! On the USC game, USC's problem was that their starting quarterback who led them to a game winning drive at the end of the Ohio State game was out because of injury. When I first saw that on ESPN, I said to myself, "who cares, they'll still kill them." Now I didn't see the whole game, but to me it seemed like Aaron Corp just could not get the offense going. Plus, the win was also predictable because EVERY YEAR, USC loses to one unranked Pac-10 team and Washington had just ended their losing streak, so it kind of made sense for them not to start another losing streak.

P.S. EMAIL ME MR ABTS!! (fleetjr@verizon.net)
hey mr abts
I think that usc always has a good team but always gets beats by less then medicore teams. they always get beat by a bad team and are always ranked high. That is what is stupid about the bcs. i am a usc hater. They always have 4 or 5 good players. They get beat every year and should win the national title every year. They are the most OVERATED TEAM IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2nd period
this result is somewhat predictable because if they get better players every year you can expect to have a good football season. Also if they are on a winning streak you can predict they will keep winning.

It was not very predictable at all.I don't understand foottball at all, But it sounds like the Huskiess won out of no whare.And it seems that the other team sould have won.
My theory is that the Huskies practiced really hard to beat their losing streak while the other teams slacked off because of their winning streak and the Huskies losing streak.
Elizabeth Russo
I think the game was not predictable that the Huskies would beat the USC Trojans because the USC Trojans are 2-0 and the Huckies are unranked 1-1. I think that the USC Trojans would have won because they had a huge win last week against Ohio State, they have great recruits every year and they have a very successful program. It would have seemed more resonable to predict that the USC Trojans would have won over the Huskies because they seem to have a better team then them but you can always be surprised by the outcome. (Any team can beat any other team on any given day.)
McKenna Hage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes because they were bound to win sometime, although a losing streak from last season is pretty bad.
The game was some what predictable because USC was 2-0 and the Huskies were 1-1. USC probably thought they were going to dominate so they went in all cocky and over confident. They did not try as hard as they could, because they didn't think they had to. They thought it would be an easy win. Washington had a big win earlier so they were pumped up and they tried as hard as they could to do their best. They knew it would be tough to win.
Jacob Russell
This is because the USC picks the best players they can to go into there program. So they should win
Sarah Heneghan
I think that is a kool picture with all the fans running out on the field.That must feel really kool. They even ended their losing streak. The result is to predictable beacaus if they are so good in past years it probaly means they will be good in years to come.
Umm I don't no how it was predictable cuz I couldn't realy understand wat u were telling me because I hate football
Brittany
I think it was predictable because one of the teams was exited about winning and wanted to win again.
( I don't understand football at all so I am just taking a random guess).
Eden
great pic the losing streak was terbural for the huskeys.But they step up ther game and won! I dont know how they call it (Predictable?)
Ryan van deusen:)
wow finally won, it must be hard to pracite how to be profrestional football players. wow!! Katie Franck
Sarah S.
The result of the Washington Huskies vs. USC Trojan game was predictable because although the Trojan's had a longer history of winning, when the Huskies beat Idaho for the first time in a while, you realize that they must have some pretty strong team members this year. They also must have been excited to finally start winning some games!
Sorry if this answer is wrong, I don't know anything about football.
JP Gertz
The reason this was somewhat predictable is because the huskies werenet doing as well as the other team
I think that this was predictable because after the USC big win they thought that beating this team would be easy but i guess the Huskies practiced hard and the UNC did not think that they would play that way and were shocked that is why they lost.
Jimmy Anania
this was sooo predictable because they they had a record of wining so there for its so easy to think that they will win....... alicia mcarlde
I think that it was predictable because the Huskies stopped there losing streak and now they are on a roll and their team got better.also thats a really cool pic those people in the back ground are awesome -Bella Anania
Wait ,so who won??I think it was the Trojans because that's what my brother said and he understands football better than I do .It would be predictable because the USC has good recruits and a successful program.Its almost like a game between modified and varsity soccer I guess.That landlady in the landlady is really creepy!!!see you tomorrow! Rebecca Odell
Renee Friedman
I think USC thought they knew they would win so they didn't try their hardest to beat the Huskies. The Huskies were not as good a team but they had the modivation to win. USC was over confident because they have the best recurits and were successful in the past.
The Trojans were not prepared for the game because they were still celebrating their last victory over Ohio State. They did not have Taylor Mays, and that may be one of the reasons why they lost. They've failed miserably with unranked teams in the past few years.
Great comment, Nate! I love your use of factors leading up to the game (including health of key players) and your use of results from past seasons!
Well I really don't know if this is predictble but it sounds like the huskies won because they tried harder.Idaho was doing better than the huskies before the game so they probably didn't bring enough effort to the game.They probably had more fan support also.
Sophie Miller
I don't think it was very predictable. To me
(though I don't know a thing about football)
the Trojan's had better recruits, and maybe
better program, and sounded like they should of won.
Then again, maybe they were so excited after
winning the Ohio State Buckeyes that they didn't
give it their all.
Claire Dohner
I not shure what this question is asking. All I know is the people in the picture are playing football and one team won, thats all i know.
Will Cadwalader
well i guess it was predicible becuase the huskies had a winning streak, which means that they were doing pretty good,so that game was predictible.
AISLING ( or ashley whatever it doesn't matter) Mcogldrick
Based on the paragraphs content it is predictable that the positive energy from the Huskies win the week before helped them with momentum to win the game.
-Rebecca Morosko
i did not think it was predictible because the worst team beat the best team. They were just lucky. from Lyman Townsend
I think that it was somewhat predictable because the Huskies had a 1-1 score. The trojans where 2-0 so thats why I really wouldn't have known.
Max Ofer
Well i fell happy for the Huskeys winning they must fell pretty good!
Helen Powers
Theres people that just go with the flow of not predicting your life.I seem to find it easyer if i dont because if theres somthing that i realy want to happen and it dosent then i get let down and so there for i try to think that stuff is not going to happen.
Jasmine Reed
The result is somewhat predictable as the Huskies came off a big win from last week. Their spirit was high from winning and it kept their focus strong and their drive alive!
5th period Ms. Potrikus
it's awesome that they stopped the losing streak, and it's predictible because the Huskies have a good team and they had a loosing streak, so they tried harder and harder to wim the game and it looks like they did.
Emily Murphy
I predict that the dude starts screming becuase he is happy
Ian ROBINSON
i dont know much about football. Awesome picture.
jen snyder
that must have been a big win for the huskeis because they ended there losing streak.so ithink that they might bit MICHAGAN.if thats how you spell it.
kevin frevele
it is predictable because the one team has a higher score]
-krista
The Huskies ended a lossing streak that is why.
Serena Howard:D
"Someone has to win and someone has to lose"
-Donald
This was a cool quote I heard from a very good friend of mine and I thought it would fit this picture well.
Dylan Snyder Period3
this was realy predictable because they they had a record of wining so its so easy to think that they will win again
briany marino
well, i don't know if it is predictable but it seems like the huskies won because the tried harder and brought more power to the game. Since Idaho was probably still celebrating from their last victory and they thought the huskies were really bad, the didn't expect that the huskies would be able to beat them. This really shows that you have to always try your hardest and never underestimate The HUSKIES!!!! (just kidding)
Sophie Miller
i dont watch college football but i do occasionly watch a michigan game or maybe even the bills (because my mom likes the team) or the giants so yeah hehehe
Katie Kleban and Kara Aufmuth
Cool the huskeies beat the who ever i don't really care for collage football, i only like the nfl but cool i guess.
Tae
It was about time that the Huskies
HAD A WIN.............................................................................................................SERIOUSLY
Ian Robinson
this pic is awsome
Jasmine Reed
the result was predictable because the huskies stopped their losing streak to help thee fans becasue they were probably feeeling a liitle low or like losers you know........most people do after a losing streak......by jordian
ya they did do alot of winning which made this predicya kenny e
That is such a kool pic. I would love having. Fans running at me like that. And breaking a loseing streak is even better!
Christina P5
Im not a big follower of football so I am not quite sure whether it was predictabe or not. But then again, every winning streak ends sometime.
Robert 5
this was predictable i think that the michigan huiskies have great running backs and a great qb and after coming off of a loseing streak they problely were preaty determin to win the next game and they did.
Lucas Busse
it was pridictable. the huskies won and their discusting i dislike them
-paige hewitt
This was very predictable because the Huskies came off a win that changed a lot for them. They now knew they could win a game and had the confidence to do much more. USC came off of a huge win against a big team. This made them feel invincible and a lot higher than the Huskies. Huskies had heart, playing until the end like they had nothing to lose, because to a team like that, you have nothing to lose, only everything to gain, and everyone knows heart goes further than talent, look at the 1960 olympics, when USA beat the Soviet Union. It is easier to win as the underdog. Being USC, you have to go in thinking that every game is just as important as the last and the next to come. Game over, I win
Trent
It might be for some and not for others. so keep rooting for your team.
Austin period 2
It was perdictable because the Huskies just came off of a losing streak and they probably don't want to lose again so they tried really hard to win this one.
nate period 2
This event was somewhat predictable since the Huskies were on a long losing streak and they recently beat a good team. This could of caused them to have more confidence and beat USC.
Johnny 5
not a big fan of football, but i did hear aboutthe huskie's win. and i mean i watch football sometimes but not much my favorite team is the giants.!!!!!!! Favorite game was when they won the supper bowel.
Alyssa
3 period
GIANTS RULE!!!!!!!!!!
i think it was predictable beacause they have a history of winning and have a good team.
jere.5
I think that this was predictable because USC has better recruits every year and they were tired of losing and wanted pride and wanted to win at lest one game so came back strong anbd won the game.
