I am a USC fan.......our football programs stinks right now. The OL is horrible at pass or run, tackles are horrible.....grade D. The QB is barely a C even when healthy and will be running for his life with not much sitting on the bench except inexperience. The running backs are B. The defensive line is a B- only graded B- due to a transfer that if he does not blossom could make this grade lower. The LB's are a C. The defensive backs are a B. Everything else you hear is talk by folks that are pumping ratings or have connections to the program.
Coaching is horrible. Helton is a moron. The OC a kid from a no account Texas program that runs a stupid offense.
The only thing holding us up is a schedule that must have been created in Heritage Hall by Mrs. Helton. AZ ST has better talent and will be playing at home against us with better coaching. Utah has equal talent and is better coached with a bye before the USC game. Stanford has equal talent and is better coached. UCLA has equal talent and is better coached.
We will not get to the PAC 12 game even with us hiding from Oregon and Washington. Notre Dame is an automatic loss with the game at their place. I expect a minimum of 4 losses. Could be 5-7.
I understand this may sound harsh because folks always think of USC as the big dog......well.....even a big dog catches fleas sometimes.
