Sorry Kal 

even with all our injuries not tonight. 
 

one last trip to Berkeley in 2023 before we leave this dreadful conference 

[Blarg]

Cal had some costly miscues but still stayed in the game to the end. I'm not sure this game moves USC forward in the polls.

This defense is getting worse as the year moves along.

It's the injuries and the refs.

Missing 2 of 3 linebackers doesn’t help

another week to rest them against Colorado.

in fact another week to rest all the guys who have been out since Utah. 
 

our offense has been a juggernaut without 2 of our top receivers. I would like to see us run the ball a tad more.

The only poll that matters is the last one 

if USC wins they’re in. 
 

just win baby.

Juggernaut’s are subjective, especially when tainted by fandom.

No complaints missing our best receivers for a few games. Hopefully Addison gets a half tonight to knock off some webs. 
 

Play who you play. 
 

final tune up tonight.

Win and you’re in the conference title game

[AngelsLongBall]

Charbonnet will run for 200+ against us.  I don't like this game at all, it is a mini version of the 13-9 game, although I expect a much higher score.

And that will be ucla’s best defense. 
 

run the ball. Grind the clock. UCLA’s defense is equally if not worse than USC’s, especially with Clancy Pendergast at the helm of their defense. 
 

If kaz Allen is healthy he will destroy our linebackers in space.

we’re gonna need a few players back this week.

Caleb Williams one step closer to a heisman 

Beat the Irish 

[nando714]

USC was dominate most of the game and dominate in the trenches against a solid ND front on both sides of the ball

one win away. 
 

Beat Utah

That was a helluva game.  ND now knows how SC fans felt against mobile QBs like Vince Young, Brett Hundley, etc.  I have to think Williams wins the Heisman

[Lou]

If Williams doesn't win the Heisman they should just stop giving it out.

With all of the talent on the roster, if you don't go to the playoffs, Riley should be fired.

Well, it was a better year than last.

Ha ha ha.   So sweet.  I lost my ass on this bet, but it was worth it.  Exposed as the fraud they were

[Jay]

USC was completely physically beaten by Utah.

I'm not a big follower of the college football racket these days but I would really love to see the 3 undefeated teams lose their conference championship games and watch the committee scramble to throw 4 teams in the playoff

[Angel Oracle]

Half of USC’s defense should be gone from the program.

Great coaching Alex Grinch that stole CFP birth from USC!

Is Utah’s OL that experienced?? 

And WTH did Austin Jones disappear off to?  15 carries/35 yds?

It was probably the refs.

or the injuries.  Who knows?

Yes. Utah was holding all 2nd qtr when they tied it

 

Caleb was playing on 1 leg starting mid 1st qtr 

all in all , year 1 of a rebuild. We’re in a NY6 bowl. 
 

another off season of recruiting and the portal. we’re fine 

4-8 to 11-2. We’ll see where the chips fall Sunday

Austin Jones disappeared bc Caleb isn’t holding a linebacker . He was no threat to run
