USC Morning Buzz: No Holding Back On Holding Program Hostage

I didn’t hold back yesterday on my appearance with Petros and Don MacLean when it came to Lincoln Riley and whether three losses is a successful season. You can listen here. The interview starts around the 17:45 mark. “I’ve never heard of a three-loss season being called a success at USC,” I said. “Either you’re in the College Football Playoff on a regular basis or … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: No Holding Back On Holding Program Hostage

It’s Quite A Day For Bad Moments

USC Morning Buzz: What Is A Good Season?

What has happened to a segment of USC fans? They are softer than the defense looked against Illinois. Right on schedule, they are saying a three-loss season shows progress and is an acceptable rate of return in Year 4 of the Riley Era. I guess I was raised in a different era because three losses was never considered “good enough” for USC. I used to … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: What Is A Good Season?
