USC Morning Buzz: Trojans Want To Avoid Overconfidence

USC is 2-0 in conference play for the first time since 2007. But that hardly led to any cause for celebration for the Trojans who do not want another letdown.

“Nobody ever likes losing and the way we lost (to Boston College), that’s not ‘SC ball,” safety-linebacker Su’a Cravens said. “I felt like that hunger, that attitude of being dominant on the field came back. That attitude we had against Fresno State came back. It showed.”

  1. “The attitude we had against Fresno State came back tonight” lmfao!!
    Guess what, Oregon State is not much better than Fresno State good luck feeling dominant again the rest of the year.. Oregon State was just a pathetic football team, Mansion was garbage.

    • funny how this era of trOXans freak out about beating crummy teams. i think Fresno beat Southern Utah or someone like that for their big win this year. ASU will be a test, it their QB is right…..mobile QB’s have always been the trOXans downfall.

      • I’m not sure if you knew or not, but we beat Memphis, and I am Not sure if you knew, Memphis almost beat number 10 team Ole Miss this weekend. your days of playing high school teams are over, even Colorado is going to slap you down.

      • A win by 1 point win is superior to a 6 point loss to BC. LOL. No matter what you say or claim, SUCC suffered the humiliation of the Boston Massacre. The SUCC tradition crumbles.

        • You bring up your bb team to overcome your gridiron lows , yet you talk about a crumbling traditions ???? Ha ha ha ah you silly Ruin! It’s So sad ! So sad

  2. Memo to Cadre: i am please to announce that i have now confirmed that the pernicious anarchist who went by the Name Sally, aka Mr Bill aka TIme for a Change etc has had ALL of her Comments removed and all ID’s BANNED!!! the wolfman has stricken her name from every Obelisk and Monument in EGYPT!!!

    like Nubsie, Freethinker, Mono, Wahhhn Carloads, Sally has been added to the scrap heap of EXILED Dummies who have DARED to oppose the wolfman and/or the Classy Cadre!!!

    So It Was Written, So It Was DONE!!!

    AUUUUUUU-WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

      • man, that was one angry broad.

        if i didn’t know better, youdda thunk she was one of wolfman’s one night stands who he didn’t recognize a week later.

        #FatalAttraction?

      • Sally, et al, stuck her thumbs in the eyes of the Powers That Be….it’s no surprise that she got smote down like a Philistine.

        and you better watch your step as well, tontolón

        • Apparently Bucket is the anti-Jimmy Dugan

          There may be no crying in baseball but

          #ThereIsCryingInSportsTrolling

          • any tears i have are tears of laughter upon seeing another Dummy lying face first in the dust…..but Sally will be back. like a bull in a bullfight, she has no chance of winning, but pure rage keeps her lurching forward until the final Coup de Grace.

            we’ll be waiting to snuff out her next incarnation.

    • Assuming what you say is correct, you would have to be on the Daily News staff to have access to such knowledge. I’m guessing you’re Wolf, himself. I thought Sally, the hot chick, was great, apparently Wolf and the Daily News did not. She sure cleaned your clock on a regular basis. Like she always said, “Your balls are in her court.” HAWR-HAWR

      • take it easy, T49, i know what your feeling right now…angry, frustrated, feeling powerless against the Cadre…just let it go. just walk away.

        lots of brash upstarts have swaggered in here declaring war on the Cadre, and usually it’s right after we hang another Dummy’s scalp on our lodge-pole. these are the one who get carried out on their shields the quickest.

        the Cadre are lovers, not fighters. But don’t start anything with us….and you’ll be fine.

        hey wait a minute….you don’t have any stud nephews do y….oh never mind.

  3. What a surprise – the first two members of the “We will comment about anything regarding USC” are the first two to comments. Anno winkimus – Like ASU was any better?? Their QB didn’t even know what team he was on!!
    #Charliebucketandannieninneequalshahahahhhahahahhahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!!

    • Asu put up over 600 yards on ugly’s swiss cheese defense, and that was with a backup qb! Yet they keep coming over here beating their chests.

      • Boston College 37 – SUCC 31 – A SUCC loss by any other name would still stink of humiliation and shame.

      • pUSC gives up 452 yards ON THE GROUND and LOSES to an unranked, hapless BC team and your’re giving carp to UCLA for demolishing the #15 team in the nation 62-27? If that wasn’t so pathetic, it would be funny. Good luck against ASU this weekend; we’ll see how well your sorry D does against their offense.

        • Yes, USC’s defense looked horrible vs BC, I haven’t seen any trojan deny that. But you UGLY fans cant admit that UGLY’s defense has looked terrible through 4 games.

          Stats don’t lie. UGLY’s Swiss cheese D gave up 469 yds to lowly Memphis, 322 to lowly Texas, 386 to lowly Virginia and 626 to a decent ASU but starting their 2nd string QB.

          It would be understandable if UGLY had big leads in all of these games, therefore having the second-team defense in for good portions, but 3 of ugly’s 4 games have been decided by 8 points or less.

          Do you really think ugly can win against teams like Oregon and Stanford with a defense as porous as ugly’s?

          Stanford’s D will keep ugly’s offense in check, but can ugly’s swiss cheese D keep stanford from scoring?

    • 11 NC …. Not bad for clowns !!!! Right ??? I ll take being a clown any day than a crybaby blu-loser Ruin !!!!! Hahahahahah

      • SUCC’s 11 claimed NC’s were voted. UCLA’s 11 Basketball NC’s were won in tournament competition.

        • “shared?”– Not true. Most were outright
          won on the field.

          Your jealousy runs deep and is transparent, but that”s ok because we understand your type.

          And the present format of a “Final-4” is still a vote

  4. No team in the Pac-12 should be overconfident against any of the Pac-12 teams i.e. even Cal has improved.

    Parity has arrived, which makes for good drama, but is lousy on the nerves.

    And all the blog talk etc about games means nothing; show it on the field.

    • Exactly right, JW. The media puts a camera and a microphone in front of a player and they say stuff that makes sense. I don’t see any reason why any player on either team in LA should feel overconfident. Shut up and play ball.

      Celebrate when you have accomplished something.

  5. Brett Hundley had 427 total yards and 5 TDs on offense against ASU–just 35 yards shy of the total yardage of the pUSC O vs OSU. Plus, Hundley alone had 5 offensive TDs vs pUSC’s 4 against the doormat Beavs. Oh, and check out who was named P12 O Player and D Player of the week. (Hint: No one from the Clown College.)
