Lisa's Bio

Lisa Horne is a football addict who actually understands the nuances of the x's and o's of football. She is currently going into her third year as an independent contracted college football sportswriter for FOXSports.com, and would love to eventually be an exclusive writer for them. She is currently doing some video work for FOXSports.com as well as her weekly college football content.

She has been published and quoted on many websites, including MSN.com, SI.com, Deadspin.com, BCSfootball.org, MSNBC.com, ESPN.com, and Steroid Nation. She has a blog, "Lisah" on FOXSports.com and has been a guest on numerous radio shows including XTRA SPORTS Radio 1360 AM (San Diego), 740 The Game (Orlando, Florida) and ESPN Radio (KHLO/KKON) in Hawaii.

Lisa also conducted one of the first Twitterviews (interview conducted via Twitter) with Pete Carroll, USC's head football coach, on April 25th, 2009.

Her bucket list of VIPs to be interviewed includes Joe Paterno, SEC Commish Mike Slive, Urban Meyer and Howard Schnellenberger. She had Steve Spurrier on her list, but doubts he would accommodate her.

She is a 2009-10 member of the FWAA (Football Writers of America Association) and serves as a content consultant for the featured columnist program at Bleacher Report. Come on guys, let's rip it!

Lisa was just ten years old when she told her daddy that she would be one of the first woman to cover the Super Bowl, and she ended up fulfilling her ultimate wish (sort of) by doing live commentary of Super Bowl XLII on February 3rd, 2008 for MSN.com and FOXSports.com.

By the way, it's true. Chicks dig the long ball.

Always Compete. Win Forever.

Favorite Athletes

Junior Seau, Rey Maualuga, Brian Cushing, Tim Tebow, Percy Harvin
Favorite Sports Teams

USC Trojans, Florida Gators, Boston Celtics, Oakland Raiders and Washington Redskins
All Time Sports Moment

1974 USC v ND football game. ND was leading 24-6 at halftime, and ended up losing 55-24. It was the greatest comeback in college football.
Most Memorable Game Attended

1984 Los Angeles Olympics
Most Unbreakable Sports Record

Nolan Ryan's no-nos
Ruth or Mays?

Mays
Unitas or Montana?

Montana....Joe Cool is the best.
Jordan or Russell?

MJ!
Gretzky or Orr?

The Great one
Pele or Maradona?

Pele
Federer or Sampras?

Federer...but it's close!
Tiger or Nicklaus?

Nicklaus...he had better competition and didn't have the technologically advanced clubs that today's golfers use.
Petty or Earnhardt?

King Richard
Schumacher or Senna?

Schumacher
Pac 10, Big 12, Big 10, SEC, ACC, or Big East?

I refuse to comment on this one because I don't think conferences should be evalulated unless every team plays each other and other conferences. It's lame to say once conference is the best. Conferences don't win championships, teams do.
