Morning Buzz: If USC Was Smart, It Would Do This
Lincoln Riley said USC played “complementary ball” against Ohio State. That’s interesting because Riley teams rarely play complementary football, it’s one of his trademarks like the Air Raid offense. USC received a commitment from three-star defensive tackle Simeon Jones. He was previously committed to James Madison. Purdue has dropped out of next year’s game with Notre Dame on Labor Day weekend. USC plays UNLV that … Continue reading Morning Buzz: If USC Was Smart, It Would Do This
Does College Football Have An Attendance Problem?
There was a lot of talk about college football stadium’s not being sold out or down in attendance over the weekend. The cost is obviously a factor.

Lincoln Riley Really Read A Prepared Statement After Ohio State Victory
Well, the wireless situation was diabolical at the Coliseum on Saturday, which severely limited my posts/tweets. I will have a detailed analysis of the game Sunday. In the meantime, Lincoln Riley pulled another weird move in his post-game press conference, when he read a statement off a piece of paper. “This program’s not built on internal joy. Um, is, excuse me, built on internal joy, … Continue reading Lincoln Riley Really Read A Prepared Statement After Ohio State Victory
USC vs. Ohio State Live Blog
I don’t know how much I will be posting here today but I will have comments on my Twitter account, @InsideUSC. Can USC pull off an upset today? Is Ohio State vulnerable without its quarterback? This is the kind of game where an upset might make sense, except for the fact Lincoln Riley is not a leader and rarely inspires his teams to meet the … Continue reading USC vs. Ohio State Live Blog
