Game Thread: USC vs Stanford

[WABLTY]

Good 1st half. A bit sloppier than expected, but both teams look pretty strong.

USC's very lucky it's 7-7 right now. Wow.

We are certainly being outplayed. Stanford has made some nice adjustments on their defensive line, mixing up blitzes, closing gaps.

Yep. Stanford has blown themselves up on three separate scoring drives. Trojans gotta be happy to only be down three on the road.

Stanford's dudes still seem like they've been there forever, even with Murphy, Skov, etc. moving on. I've known who Anderson, Parry, Tarpley and Vaughters are for like 3 years.

SC need to come out strong. Kessler needs to step up and make some plays and the d needs to get some pressure in hogan or it's going to be a long day

As someone else wrote, the ability of Stanford to shut down normally high-powered offenses is astounding.

Mid 2nd quart here and I found myself lying on the couch semi-comatose...halfway to sleep, but got 1 good eye watching the ballgame.

Gawd I love Sats...

Stanford offense cant seem to get out of their own way when they get on SC side of the field

 

[LucklessPadresFan]

A three-and-out to start the 3rd quarter will pretty much seal the deal for us. We must score on the opening drive to send a message.

They are just masters at controling the tempo , and clock against face pace offenses

well, there you go

USC making it through the second half of this game without the Trees wearing them out would be pretty good alone.

 

[WABLTY]

Someone just got run the fuck over.

 

[WABLTY]

Kelsie Young seems pretty good. Same high school as Gerhart.

 

[potzer25]

Go Trees!

 

[podsox]

1st down play call killed that drive

 

[Lakers+USC=#1]

Good stop, again, in the red zone.

 

[Lakers+USC=#1]

Wow, and he missed!!!

 

[podsox]

and then the miss...

You have to give USC credit for playing tough defense in the red zone.
