Have not seen Hawaii play this year but have seen USC. If USC keeps playing like they have been, they will destroy any team in thier way unless they have a meltdown. I would like to see UCLA win the title but I have a feeling it's going to be USC. USC is very beatable, try ask UCF. as long as hawaii brings their A-game, we have a chance. UCF was light years ago. No bearing. Just like Oregon beating PSU.

i've watched lots of usc and hawaii this season and i know usc is big and talented at every position but they're no PSU team of 2008... Penn State of 2008 is no USC of 2003.... You are right, USC of 2003 about 3-4 in line of greatest teams. PSU 08 1or 2.

I'm hoping Hawaii not only wins this match but wins the NC as well. Me too! That would truly be a nice Christmas present ;D

Well, after reading all of the totally predictable posts, and a trip to the bathroom, I have to agree that I have seen the light! I am not picking The Rainbow Wahine to win it all and every single match will be a sweep, starting with the one against the Women of Troy! Bring on the garlic fries!! ;D But did you flush and put the toilet seat down? Having a stench filled feces ladden mist permeating the air inside your home is not good indoor climate control.

This USC team is notch below last season's team. They would've been scary if FF was playing though!

I would expect to see Kalei Adolpho play in the USC match. She give the Wahine a bigger block if Shoji moves Hartong on the right. Kalei and Hartong can help with containing Jupiter. If they play well and Croson and Kanani are on that night, we have a good chance. If Croson, Hartong, and Hewitt serve tough and disrupt their passing that will also help. The crowd will also be a huge factor. Even CSU coach said the crowd and environment got to his team. Let`s do it again!!

I think this year's team is a tad better and more balanced, especially towards the end of the regular season. 2010, they swept 15 matches through the 2nd round. 2011, they swept 23 matches through the 2nd round. 2010, they lost a total of 22 sets through the second round. 2011, they lost a total of 13 sets so far. Losing FF was a huge blow for them but it seems like they come out stronger this year.

Just like Oregon beating PSU. last time I checked 3 months < lights years ago bottom line is USC lost... just because it happened 3 months ago doesn't mean it never happened.
