Matt Leinart's Wife Claiming to Be Excited to Watch the Texas-USC National Championship is Hilarious

On Thursday night, ESPN will be showing a rerun of the classic 2006 BCS National Championship between the USC Trojans and the Texas Longhorns. It's certainly one of the greatest games in NCAA history, and among the legions of excited fans is a supposedly unsuspecting Josie Loren, Matt Leinart's wife.

The Trojans famously lost that game in heartbreaking fashion to Vince Young and the Longhorns. it's all the more comical that Loren would claim she's especially excited to watch this particular game, as well as to turn around and insist she's never watched Matt play.

Is she trolling here? It's hard to tell without knowing the look on her face. Eiter way, it's brilliant.

Young won the game for UT with a miraculous touchdown run on fourth down with the clock ticking down in the final quarter. It was an all-time sports moment, but for Trojans fans, it was pretty much as heartbreaking as a game could possibly be -- and that surely counts tenfold for Leinart, as it was his last college game.

The ribbing he's going to get from Josie as she watches every second of this one will be spectacular.

USC fans naturally flocked to Twitter to warn her about the impending disaster. It seems her husband may have let her know his thoughts as well, but she's undeterred.

Loren claims to not be a huge sports fan, but if she sits through that whole game and places herself in Matt's position, she'll feel the purest kind of crushing defeat.

Of course, she could also just be in this for the banter. That would be pretty amazing.
