Since I posted comments from Joel Klatt yesterday, let’s remember what he said on August 20th about USC. How did it hold up? .@joelklatt is bullish on USC this season… "This notion that their offense will take a step back is false… They're not going anywhere. It hasn't mattered what QB he has had." pic.twitter.com/8aC1GNbY9b — Herd w/Colin Cowherd (@TheHerd) August 20, 2024 https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js Continue reading Does It Matter Who Plays QB?

QUARTERBACK I really don’t get why the QB guru doesn’t see the need to install some packages with Jayden Maiava. This doesn’t mean you replace Miller Moss.

Caleb Williams came under criticism last season and threw five interceptions in 12 games. Miller Moss has four interceptions in five games. USC has had two pass plays of more than 40 yards this season and ranks 104th nationally. Last year, five receivers had catches of at least 40 yards and the Trojans ranked No. 2 nationally.

That’s eight over the last three games,” Klatt said. “This game against Penn State is a matchup that I don’t love for them. Penn State is going to run the ball and … Continue reading USC Notes: A Shocking Stat

A college coach told me Monday that he expects Penn State coach James Franklin to be coaching for his life on Saturday because he wants to impress USC’s administration. “He would love that USC job but he needs to beat USC,” the coach said. “He’s going to be fired up for that game.” The knock on Franklin going into this game was supposed to be … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Someone Will Be Coaching For Their Life Saturday

Do you ever listen to the Trojans Live show? I don’t recommend it. Here is Lincoln Riley tonight: “You have to keep perspective. If you change two plays this year, then we’re 5-0 and we feel like we’re world beaters and we’re worried about being over confident.” So he is doubling-down on Saturday when he made similar comments. “Our team is very battle tested. I’d … Continue reading USC Is Two Plays From Being Undefeated
