USC players see Holiday Bowl as impetus to regain fans – Orange County Register

Senior wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. won’t be around next year, but he’d like to see a win Friday help get some support back for his teammates in 2020.

“It would just get our fans back into it, I guess, because they’re acting a little cold towards our program right now,” Pittman said following practice Tuesday.

If USC cannot beat an inept offensive team live Iowa, then USC sucks. Nate Stanley is not a threat. Iowa's running game is not a threat.

Iowa does not have Oregon speed. Iowa will not blowout USC like Oregon did. Iowa's defense can keep Iowa in the game.

If Iowa cannot get to Slovis, then it is game over and it should be a USC victory.

USC does not want to see a close game at the end, Iowa can win ugly games.

Iowa doesn't look very good on D...their dbacks look really slow

Iowa will be just fine.

The slap Slovis QB will get confused, and jump balls will no longer be jump balls. The rush will get there, and Iowa will pound that shit SC defense into submission.

I think that is everything right there. I think Iowa has to be willing to blitz more than they are used to or he looks poised enough to kill out secondary.

Nice D SC

 

[HuskerOC]

Iowa speed.

 

[Churchillin]

Kirk is letting his OC call plays on offense. very good sign.

 

[HuskerOC]

3 and out coming.

Rush will get there. The rattling of Slovis will begin.

Time of possession
Iowa 14:50
USC 3:48

USC D better figure out how to get their defense off the field or gonna be dead in 3rd quarter.

I was a one month old fetus.

USC making it look easy against Iowa defense
