What can you say about a game like that? A lot of things could have been done to win that game near the end, like going for it on 4th down having Bradford punch the ball up the middle, having Houston actually make the kick. But these things happen, and the team needs to focus and look at themselves and ask, "Is this were we want to be?" USC should have won this game big. Instead a repeat of last year happened, with Folk kicking a game winner. I sure hope all of the defensive recruits there realized that they can help out BIG time. It is going to be a very long season with continued play like this. I will say the offense looks great, but the defense...Come on Monte. We have Stanford, Cal, and Oregon in a 4 week span. Thats gonna get ugly. Very ugly. However, we will be back on top. Maybe no this year or next year, but I am confident in USC winning the appeal, and returning to Glory with a Senior Matt Barkley in 2012-2013..The defense will learn, they are just very young. but it seems every time there is a 3rd and long, or a 4th down and they decide to go, you say to yourself, "Just move the chains." That will change in the next few years though. So do not worry Trojan fans!
As for my predictions...they were pretty much all wrong except the Tyler and Bradford part. It was bad....
