OSU was penalized a lot. And too many false starts or holds when you play at home.
OSU missed a FG. Fairness USC did too
OSU turned the ball over 4 times.
OSU would have recovered a USC fumble on the goal line and put the game away right there. USC first fumble of the season. yet they didn't
OSU won the game stopping Caleb on 4th and 6 when he finally took off. Oh but wait. He fell forward 2 yards because 600lb of OL plowed him. That must have felt good. lol
OSU scored 7 points in 3 quarters and only scored 7 more because USC punted to them at the 22. Yes, the wrong 22 lol
This same team snuck out a win barely against Fresno, who USC just torched. Why? Winning on the road when you are 19 is hard. Crowds are loud. Games are long. Shoot I play softball with 30-40 year olds who have tantrums when things don't go well and the other team gets under their skin. These kids are on TV, huge crowds. It's chaos. Tough place to focus So the road is a hard place to play.
