Good article rusoviet. If this bill passes through it will take a lot SEC country reps go along with revealing the average NIL deals and agent certification. They are not going to agree to let the NCAA have any power to regulate any reforms. Now Lane Kiffin wants to whine it’s destroying college football. Until reforms come you must establish NIL Collectives, that gets $$$ deals done along with making the CFP. Wink Wink Folt.

Pac-12 is going to be good this year. SC could conceivably be 12-0 this year but I really think you could make a case that SC could be 10-2 or even 9-3. That schedule is hard core especially in the last 6 games. The 2 bye weeks don’t help any either. You have one in the 4th week and one after the season is over(which wouldn’t be a bye week anyhow since you would have 3 or 4 weeks off after the last game before the bowl games. So you really only have one bye week. But, having said that, I do think SC will have the #1 offense in the nation and I also think that their defense will be much improved.

USC has players that the other teams can’t matchup with on both sides of the ball. The coaches on this team have developed Helton players to competitive level to support the stars. Kingsbury and Greg Brown offer an edge in coaching that the other teams will struggle with.
It’s up to Riley and Grinch to make the difference with playcalling. No excuses.
