Clay Helton had this whopper of an answer for snapping out of a shotgun on 4th-and-1: “Right now, it’s just not us. It’s sad that the fourth-and-1 we had a missed assignment . I don’t think it was from a lack of scheme, but we did have a missed assignment.” Reaction: It’s not just one play. USC has a lot of problems converting short-yardage downs … Continue reading Sunday Night With Clay Helton
USC fans are not suprised by the lackluster victories the past two weeks. And I’m seeing some parents of players are starting to become more vocal on social media. But what does Mike Bohn think?

The endless penalties. The … Continue reading Discuss The USC-Arizona Game*
USC comes back and scores with 25 seconds left. USC defense made it far too easy for Arizona, which scores a TD with 1:35 left. Not a great day for Sean Snyder with bad punt, field goal, kickoff. Kedon Slovis keeps throwing floaters but also throws a TD pass. And USC leads 27-23. Will Clay Helton luck out again? Probably. Arizona kicks a 51-yard FG … Continue reading USC-Arizona Live Blog
