Well shit, at least the Lakers won last night.

USC losing an o-lineman before the game, another one during the game and Caleb getting hurt didn't help their cause. But in the 2nd half, they looked like what they are...a talented, but unfinished team that was a year early.

Congrats to the Utes.
They looked really good and have a manageable schedule over the next 3.

They need a miracle to comeback
Yep. I was proud of the way they responded to the early goal but as everybody else is saying, the second goal given up in added time is a fucking killer. 2-0 in soccer is like a 34-13 halftime deficit. Looks dire.

They looked exactly how Riley teams have always looked in big games. It’s not hopeless, just hope he didn’t peak his first year there like he did at OU.

You can only rebuild one side of the ball in one off-season. It's why I didn't pick them to win the PAC before the season. If they land some of the defensive recruits that they are in on and pull a couple from the portal, they should be fine. They have a lot of speed on the defense, but they are really undersized. Their best linebacker only weighs 200 lbs. lol

You need to fire Grinch and hire Riley’s DC for him. Dude has no idea how to even evaluate that side of the ball.

Maybe. I'd like to see him with a defense that has some size and depth.

His schemes are actually fairly solid and their turnover and sack numbers show that they're doing something right.

It's hard to scheme against a team like Utah that wants to run between the tackles and pass to huge tight ends when you have no size.

USC trying to tackle those tight ends looked like my son trying to tackle me when he was like 7 years old. lol

Can't believe it's CCG time. Yet another CFB regular season that's zoomed right on by.

Speaking of CFB I really hope Primetime takes the CU job. :hope:

You see them more than I do but go back to this thread last night. There are about half a dozen things I called out that are just fundamentally unsound and the poor tackling is a direct result of coaching from my perspective.
