I cannot believe Clay Helton. Does he want to lose games on purpose?
The over-the-hill pundits who proclaimed all offseason the offense was bulletproof, defense better and strength-and-conditioning dramatically better should be ashamed. But they are too thick to realize it.
Below is the signature play of the game.

67 —For my part, I will never read another word Dan Weber writes —all that crap about ‘the best defense in years’ — he needs to get his eyes off Keely and start watching practice. This defense totally sucks —they’re slow to react, unable to tackle and way out of position on the long ball (which is gonna kill us against better teams)….

Swann would be shown the exit with Clay and Clancy at the same time I signed (simultaneous with a messenger being dispatched to Urban with a blank check for him and and a book for him to make out to whomever he wanted to bring on with him)…

Speaking of which, interesting that they entitled a song on their decade-overdue new release with the name “Chocolate Chip” in it…but not one for “Hell-town the Hell-clown”…

Clown Helton probably practiced KO returns with those two kids during the entire camp and didn’t realize they wore the same number. That penalty was priceless.

First — Tip of the hat to James for coming so close to calling the final score!
Second —Tip of the hat to Scott for not falling for Helton’s “I’m so mad —I can’t wait to play rough, tough football —opening game can’t get here fast enough!” routine….
Third —If they’re not gonna fire him, somebody has to tell our fricking idiot of a coach to close his fricking mouth on the sidelines. Who would want to play for a guy that is standing on the sidelines with his mouth hanging open for 60 minutes?

Cary —I wish you were right. But what makes you think our dolt of a president will push Swann into action? Any chief executive with half a brain would have refused Helton’s invitation to do a photo op with him last week. How on earth could she let herself get roped into yucking it up for the cameras with that idiot? A “Doctor Death” president would have declined and said “you’ve got lots to prove before I’m seen anywhere near you —and if you don’t prove yourself, we’ll never meet.”

It makes no difference who plays quarterback for USC, that’s a sandlot football offense. The only reason why they put those points on the board is, because it was Fresno State

C’mon lets be realistic! Irregardless if its a sandlot offense as you call it, it most definitely matters who you have as quarterback. The blame is all over the field. If you noticed, it seemed that Daniels has so many people in his head with all of his consultants that he doesn’t know which way to turn when things get tough. He completely lost his poise after throwing that interception in the redzone, and began to eyeball Tyler Vaughns on almost every play taking all the other receivers out of the game. If anyone thinks that Fresno State has the DB talent to limit USC’s receiver talent in that fashion their insane.
The interception wasn’t necessarily all Daniels fault as Harrell gets to the goal line by power runs, and decides to throw the ball when you have a 230lb monster running back in Stepp sitting on the bench (who by the way didn’t touch the ball). smh
Lastly, I haven’t heard many people talk about the ridiculous statement by Harrell saying that Slovis is the “Best I’ve ever seen.” But when you lose your starting quarterback due to foolish play calling (Helen Keller could have seen that Fresno was bringing the house) you put the proclaimed quarterback savant in the game and after he throws a pick you shut him down for the rest of the game!?
Whats worse is that Helton is actually putting his job into the hands of this freshman who has proven to be inept in both offseason scrimmages and now a real game instead of putting your quarterback that has experience and speed in the game as the logical replacement.
One thing that we all seem to agree on is that this entire coaching staff needs to be fired. This game should have been an easy 50pt blowout even with the “Sandlot offense” and “Sucky” defense as someone mentioned.

When is SCs first game? Have they picked a starting QB yet? Probably the same what’s-his-face from last year. I hear the defense front seven is the best in the West… with Kingsbury at the controls of the offense, Bax and Clance cooking up some devilish new schemes on D and ST, coach Helton will just stand there and smile…big big year for the Trojanz … I predict SC beats the tar out of Tedford’s team…. SC 62-FSU 0….
Can’t wait for the first game….
