USC Trojans football

But, you know, they compounded that with a loss at Boston College the following week and then.

You know, it played well against USC, but then it just started, you know, being blowouts again.

Indiana just had their way with them last week.

Northwestern 42-14.

And field goals, he didn't even attempt any the first few games because, you know, Some of it, the way it worked out is they fell behind.

They needed points.

But, you know, the USC game was just the way it worked out.

It was 42-35.

who after making this note, I don't even know who that is still.

So San Jose State only once I was against USC and when USC just kind of ran out, took away with that game.

So it's statistically,

I'm going to go ahead

All right, well, we'll see how that plays out for us.

This is one I probably came to first, thinking about what might take place with Julian San being out.

USC not on the road, so that helps them.

But when I think about how this game takes place, I really think Ohio State should be favored by six and a half.

Let's go to the Big Ten game next.

What are we thinking about? It's Ohio State-USC.

Buckeyes are a six-and-a-half point favorite.

Going against the money here because this opened seven and then some USC money came in, but I'll take the Buckeyes plus the six and a half.

No one wants their starting quarterback to go down, but if he does, kind of helps if you have a bye week in two weeks, essentially, to get the new guy ready for a USC defense that ranks 64th in scoring.

Ohio State's defense will lead the way here, third in scoring D this year.

That was a bad loss for the Trojans last week at Wisconsin.

Oh, there's an old friend.

Remember that voice? That would be the voice of former OU football coach Lincoln Riley, who that audio, it's a couple days old, at his USC press conference this week.

I wanted to play that and talk about this because that's the game on the national landscape that I'm most intrigued by.

Of course, our local guys were always hyper-focused on OU South Carolina and the OSU game.

But nationally, if you said, all right, what game intrigues you the most for whatever reason? Ohio State at USC is number one easily for me because, first of all, Ohio State, they're playing with their backup quarterback, and they beat Indiana.

They've been off since then.

They shouldn't have beaten Indiana, but they did.

But, you know, the big story in college football these days, one of them is do you have depth at quarterback? Because if a quarterback gets hurt, are you screwed? And we'll see.

I came here because I believe in this place, and none of that has changed whatsoever.

That's Lincoln Riley on his future with USC.

Gave up the Oklahoma gig to go there.

I believe him, but that doesn't mean he's going to keep the job.

And again, you like to see Ohio State at full strength to beat them full strength, but they're not with A&L.

But if Lee's pick is correct where he says USC wins this weekend, that's two losses.

Ohio State's in trouble.

Right.

And Nebraska can very well beat Ohio State in

Lincoln.

You saw USC-Indiana.

What was your...

And that was it.

And then, of course, the never-ending replays of the Texas-USC Rose Bowl.

You don't really piss me off about the Longhorn Network.

It's when they would show OU Texas basketball games on there.

Two and a half.

I don't know.

Wisconsin did not play well against USC.

I mean, that game was a

So, yeah, I'm going with the Canes.

We got Ohio State taking on USC in the Big Ten.

Let me find the spread on this one.

I have it here.

I'm just going to go Ohio State to win this football game.

I think they get it done.

I'm not too high on USC.

I think this is pretty much the end of their season.

We'll see what that looks like on Saturday night.

Fascinating game against USC.

I'm a voter in the Wooden Award.

Okay.
