Loosing starting guard Quinones (ACL) who can play both guard positions and was backup center really really sucks.
Was hoping Domini was going to be a star once he got his shot. Not so sure now. Dude is not close to as fast as advertised. Maybe in the hundred yard dash, but lacks the burst .
Defense is simply not coached to contain. Tries it's best to manufacture turnovers over fundamentals? Lee should have been shown the bench when he tried to tackle the football. Why when you have better players and just need a few stops a game? makes no sense to me.
Curtis is either an idiot or just not coached. Have no idea. from my couch, Raejon Davis is just a better football player. Java's prediction is post of the year so far.
Lloyd's days of not starting are over.
Caleb is just freaking amazing. Frustrating to watch at times. Holds the ball like a loaf of bread is when he does take what's in front of him. But just makes magic happen. He can wear lipstick to go with his nails for all I care. Can't imagine this team without him. 4 or 5 losses? sc
El Doctor, the "D"? did just fine with a 66-14 win. We got a win, scored 66 points, beat the odds, played many in only 3 quarters. Be happy Amigo. We got an impressive win and being happy is good for yor health. Just ask any doctor. OK SC?
Domani is solid. Will continue to get better.
Domani-after basically a redshirt year, I expected more from this great ath;ete. Has Darnell Bing Diseas. Looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane
Curtis is 18. Not sure if he was here in the spring or not. But for him to even play is impressive. To start this early means he's got a lot on the ball.
Lloyd is getting comofrtable fast. USC losing Travis Dye last year was a massive blow. I think this guy might be the answer. It's not yesterday's USC and he's not a typical USC RB. He is a typical NFL type though. That reminds me. Did dye get drafted or make a team? Hope so.
Caleb frustrates me. On 3rd and 5. Moving ownfield He goes for it all. That time it worked and Washington went for 6. But a few other times it didn't. And I wonder against P12 schools whether that works. 3rd down go for the sticks.
Little hard to argue with 5 TD passes in 32 minutes. 42 points in 36 minutes overall. IMO he is done for the day
take away that one long pass on Nevadas first drive and USC has totally shut them down. We score soooo faasssttt that the opponent gets far more opportunities then in a normal game and Nevada has not moved the ball at all except that one drive. Give credit where credit is due. It's not that hard to do.
Not a bad assessment but I see the team as a collection of athletes that for some reason just don't seem to play in sync. Especially on defense.
Even Nevada has figured out just double team Bear and no other D lineman is going to force pressure.
Caleb is great. But he's not enough.
SC just isn't the best team in the conference. I actually think we can bear Utah but don't see wins again Oregon and Washington. Too much offense on those teams. ND also a likely loss and now the Colorado game likely to be a shootout.
If Riley wants a future at USC or NFL, he will cut grinch lose. Unfortunately, it will be one year too late.
I'm with you on the defense overall, just think Domani still has a chance. Need to see more. I don't care for C. Wright's style of play.
