Here’s some of the best Rose Bowl and national title links from around the web from the last couple of days…

- The real surprise… Wasn’t that USC lost, it’s that it didn’t lose sooner – It’s pretty sad when Henry Winkler, Wilmer Valderrama, and Nick Lachey make your list of “celebrities.” I guess the other hangers on didn’t want to show up if they couldn’t be on the field.
