USC Did BYU A Big Favor

USC did BYU a huge favor.

The Cougars have a signature victory, a case to be ranked No. 1 and a clear path to CFP because Lincoln Riley did not want to play Notre Dame.

It also helps the reputation of Big 12 teams like Utah and Texas Tech, who also have College Football Playoff aspirations.

  • Meanwhile, Penn State lost to Michigan on Saturday. So Lincoln Riley’s signature win came against a team that is 3-4. But it was a White Out!

  1. Watching ucla fly around to the ball, how organized and in position they are on defense- and how quick the RB and receivers are- SC will be fortunate to win that game. That said- the title is up for grabs if you’re a quality team- a lot of the teams have holes. If there ever was a year to have a chance- this could be it- except we have a doofus as a head coach.

    1. I commented about 9 months ago about how I wanted someone like Sitake who does well at a school where recruiting is tough and someone replied that recruiting was not difficult at BYU. I didn’t know the actual numbers, but thanks!

      That’s essentially what SUCLA did, in getting someone who did well at two small schools before they grabbed him. They haven’t really beaten anyone yet, but as I stated before…they have every reason in the world to be excited about the near future of their program. (Excuse me as I vomit. Those words left a bad taste in my mouth and on my fingers.)

      1. Socal dead on right – Bel-Air Tech hasn’t faced anyone save OR. That was a solid road win for them beggars why USC had such trouble with them (OR) at home. The sole opponent left for the Bruins is @ MI 21st Nov. 1 week prior to facing USC at the Rose Bowl.
        In watching the game I did notice Chesney reminds one of a taller version of ‘Zelensky’ esp before half-time when he was all over the official on the side line.

        WI had chances but their QB cost them as is the case with all teams.

  5. Hey Blogger, how about a post comparing USC & UCLA at this point in the season. Comparison of RB’s, LB’s, special teamsand even coaching/game day coaching. I’m sure that will be a great read.

  6. Scott, that was a great win by BYU over the princess university. It pointed out the weakness of the ND schedule and why they need USC more than we need them. We will start playing them again in a few years to renew the tradition, but we will play them on our terms not theirs. ND needs to join a conference. Fight on, Dan, Class of 1962

  8. ambitious nailed it ….. ‘the princess’ arrayed all their annual punching bags to enhance their loyal sycophants in the ‘ntl’ (NYC) media of ‘…this is the year…’ but when that formula was finally placed against a ntl’ ranked opponent on the road. it fizzled. I will admit the game could have gone either way as the Miami-FL St. and OH St. – IN games could have. A factor, they didn’t have their ‘deadhead’ fans in tow in Provo as they do everywhere else….’think rent jealous spectators when USC faces them at the Coliseum – bel-air tech fans). Great games played yesterday.
