Southern Cal at Colorado

[Boston Vol]

They showed some moxie in the 2nd half. Give them credit. I think it's a 6-6 team though.

If they win more than 6 games he should be P12 coach of the year. Their remaining schedule is pretty brutal. I still believe 5-7 is a reasonable expectation.

USC schedule starting Oct 14:

A Notre Dame
H Utah
A Cal
H Washington
A Oregon
H UCLA

No way they don’t drop at least two of those.

I’d say they drop 3 and maybe 4 if Utah gets Cam Rising back.

That game showed USC really don't have a defense. Oregon is likely the legit big dog in the PAC. That said, who knows, Oregon St don't look like a pushover.

Don't forget about Washington. Both Oregon and Washington have byes next week then the Ducks travel to Seattle that will be a very very big rivalry game!!

Still waiting for a healthy Utah team to hit the field, once they do they could be very tough and WSU just isn't a team that loses at home very often, they can be a problem as well. Not sure what to think of UCLA, QB is very young and very talented, they might be a bit inconsistent but dangerous.

I can understand both opinions when it comes to Deion. I don't mind him myself,as Colorado needed someone like him to draw attention to an otherwise terrible program. I feel he's perfect for them. However,I get how he'd rub people the wrong way.

Another thing is that it's a shame this is the last year of the PAC-12 with the success they're having as a conference. Outside of Washington, Oregon and USCin the top ten,I'm really impressed with Oregon St. The Clemson transfer at QB has looked really good,and I think a change of scenery did him well. It was obvious Clemson wasn't the right fit.

I watched a bit of the OSU game Friday, that QB transfer didn't look all that impressive against Utah. Of course Utah has a way of making you look bad and ugly. He's averaging a bit better than 50% completions over the last three games. He's had 3 tds and 4 ints in those 3 games.

I wonder what kind of quip he’ll have today?

Is he still keeping receipts?

 

[LouderVol]

That's closer than I thought it would be. I will give Deion his due on that

Yeah, Oregon and Washington will be a good game

I’ll admit that CU has been better than I thought they would be. Deion imo has earned the right to trash talk, but the best they can do this year is play spoiler to a better team. I didn’t like the line of 21.5 to USC because that defense is just awful. I would be looking into DC candidates right now if I were Lincoln Riley. It’s unreasonable to expect that Williams will be Superman every single week. Oregon, Washington, WSU and Or St are all legitimate threats to them as long as their D plays like that.

Coach Prime with the moral victory

No they didn’t. It was more of what USC didn’t do. This is typical Lincoln Riley defense.

 

[Hunter10139]

This was a win for Deion.
Faired much better than expected.

USC a lot like UT last year.
Offense is goin to out score a lot of teams but the D is going to keep a lot of teams in the game.
UT did step up at times. Not sure USC can

USC is a lot like USC last year. I don't believe their defense can step it up, they didn't then.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

If USC had any defense, the score would have been a lot worse
