Let me be clear...I'm not making any excuses, but traveling coast to coast this season hasn't fared well for many teams. I'm seriously wondering if there might be something to that.

The obvious.
1. Two FGs in the red zone doesn't cut it. got to score TDs.
2. USC has a big speed advantage at the skill positions. Their killing us on the edges and in space.
3. Nick and Katron need some vision, and a jump cut.
4. Our WRs are so out classed in this game.
5, And last but not least. we're getting out coached, what's new.

The biggest issue with the defense is they're not creating turnovers or negative plays--we'll see how we adapt but they were overly aggressive in the first half that hurt them

DL getting washed away on runs. LBs not playing downhill. Their OL is doing just enough and they have schemed their yards.

Definitely need turnovers.
 
Always has been, it is amusing how the board idiots get excited about every year and then explaining away the Bowling Green game, and blind to the fact that we cannot run for anything when it matters, have no receivers, and an average defense,
Is any team good using your logic?
Texas and Ohio State?
 
playoffs come down to this half.
Lose this game and the playoffs are likely done. Pencil in Big Game James’ annual loss to Ohio State as well as a trip to Wisconsin and it would take a lot of things to fall right for PSU to get a playoff spot.
 
Why does everyone think with a loss at USC we're out of the playoffs?
The top 3 in the Big Ten will get in--unless we lose a third game we're safe
