USC Football Catches Academic Ass-Whooping

Posted Dec 29th 2008 10:42AM by TMZ Staff

If you wanna get into the prestigious University of Southern California, you're going to have to compete for admission spots with some of the brightest people in the country -- and a bunch of dumbass football players.

USC Trojans: Click to watch
The Men of Troy hit Lawry's for the annual pre-Rose Bowl prime rib dinner last night -- but when we asked about VP-elect Joe Biden, disgraced governor Rod Blagojevich and euthanasia, well ... the world-class athletes looked more like world-class tackling dummies.

Fun Fact: They're still going to beat the crap out of Penn State.

16. Your daughter had a 4.2 and couldn't get a full ride? Wow. Shocking considering those dumb jocks can make more money for the school on a single Saturday in October than your daughter could make for the school in her entire lifetime.

17. It's the same if you want to work for TMZ, you have to compete for admission spots with some of the brightest people in the country -- and a bunch of dumbass twinks. Now which one is it Harvey preferes...?

18. I defense of the athletes, the things they asked them about were current event. Between class and practice they probably don't have time to watch the news.

Joe Biden has been in the Senate for 25+ years... The election cycle only lasted 2+years...Of course they had no time.

28. This lays low the lie that USC has improved academically. Everyone, save some deluded SC homers, knows that SC has always been inferior to UCLA in Los Angeles, and this video proves the point. If you're a football player or the daughter of a rich Republican, you're always welcome at U$C.

29. Hey...I'a a USC alumni....I feel exactly the same way about the school. It's a university that caters to the dumb football jocks, even going so far as to close daily the entire cafeteria just so they can have the run of the place for dinner; professors are pressured to give them passing grades so they can play on the field; and, they walk around campus as if they should be admired.
