USC Notes: Rutgers Game Moves To Friday Night
The Big Ten is moving the USC-Rutgers game to a Friday night (Oct. 25). A Pac-12-type move! Even worse it will kick off at 8 p.m. The game was supposed to be Oct. 26. It will be on Fox Network. Even worse, it will follow Game 1 of the World Series. So that means no way the start of the game is on Fox, right? … Continue reading USC Notes: Rutgers Game Moves To Friday Night
USC Morning Buzz: Will This Group Live Up To Hype?
Let’s take another look at a USC unit, the wide receivers. There is a some promise and some question. The coaching staff creates doubt by still wanting another receiver in the transfer portal. Recent additions were Jay Fair (Auburn) and Kyle Ford (UCLA). The keys are Zacariah Branch and Ja’Kobi Lane. If they live up to expectations, USC should be fine.

USC Notes: A Massive Task For Basketball
Now that Eric Musselman has completed his roster, you can see why Andy Enfield went to SMU.

The challenge is illustrated in this chart from … Continue reading USC Notes: A Massive Task For Basketball
USC Morning Buzz: Another Concern At The Line
Yesterday, I looked at the offense’s sore spot (the line). Now let’s look at the defense’s weakness: DE/Nate Clifton/Sr./Braylon Shelby, So. NT/Elijah Hughes/So./Kameryn Fountain, Fr. DT/Bear Alexander/Jr./Kobe Pepe, Sr. DE/ Jamil Muhammad/Sr./Anthony Lucas, Jr. You can see here why USC is desperately trying to add a defensive tackle through the portal. Alexander is the go-to guy and he plays hard when he feels like it. … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Another Concern At The Line
USC Notes: Fans And Oddsmakers Disagree
There is a complete difference of opinion about USC between the fans who expect a trip to the expanded College Football Playoff and the oddsmakers, who set the regular-season over/under at 7.5. Who is going to be right? If USC doesn’t win 10 games, Lincoln Riley is going to be under a lot of pressure again. But with the schedule, it might not be possible. … Continue reading USC Notes: Fans And Oddsmakers Disagree
