  1. Athalon has USC’S Offensive Line ranked #1 also. I hope they got it right!

    • That’s great. I guess they overlooked the fact that we couldn’t run the ball consistently last year despite having several good backs and a solid passing game.

      • Don’t forget starter Max Tuerk and Toa Lobendahn were out for the season. I’m sure I’m missing someone else. Factor in Bob Connelly was a joke. I think they’ll play better under Callaway.

        • USC football fans are obviously just tired of the constant excuses. Injuries, bad coaching, bad chemistry, psycho behavior, overweight, over-rated talent, lack of depth, lack of an offensive identity, only throwing to one receiver, only good against bad opponents, drunk coaching, et al. We’ve heard it all.

          The truth is USC hasn’t been dominant offensively for years, especially on the ground, and especially when it counts. I think the first half against WIS was the absolute worst I’ve ever seen a USC team look since 1962, when I started following the team.

          It’s time for USC to put up or shut up. In other words, I’ll believe it when I see it. And that goes for stuck-in-the-mud Banner too. He’s supposedly an AA this year. Last year I was surprised he was still starting at RT half the time he was so slow. He must have had a dual-foot transplant.

          I hear Khaliel Rodgers is moving to DL. That’s another good sign, since we’re playing the optimism game, right?

          • I’m both the optimist and also the guy that tells you my meat wasn’t cooked right. And I’m right there with everyone else…it’s time to put up or shut up. Just like you guys I know this group need a big kick in the pants. Khalil Rodgers moving to DL is a head scratcher to me, but I trust the move for now I guess. Like you, I believe Banner needs to keep quiet and lead this line like people keep saying he’s gonna do. And again I’ll believe it when I see it. Alabama will bring our hopes back down to reality quickly if we think it’s going to be easy.

          • Either that or its another way of saying he won’t be playing over Toa Lobendahn and Nico Falah.

    • I guess their using the analytics theory, players playing so many games together as a group, so we’ll soon find out how accurate that is.

      • I think you are right. The experience is there. The potential is there. They showed glimpses of being a really tough OLINE. Game 1 will be the tail of the tape.

          • Texas A&M has Bruin fans begging stub hub for a refund. Has Rosen finished puberty yet?

          • Don’t know Sammy, but he’s started 13 games more than Slappy Maxie Brown. Together the 1 and 2 bozo u QB’s have started 0 games – and Kiffy can’t wait to pick apart the bozo u Cotton Candy Defense.

            Poor Sammy, your FB team SUCC’s.

          • Rosen still has the “Deer in the headlights” look to him. Thug U will lose.

  2. Ten weeks from Saturday – THE # 1 game to gunshot the 2016 College Football Season.

    ABC national telecast (man CBS must be steaming huh?) 5:00 PM PDT 8:00 PM EDT.

  3. That’s like listening to a blowhard tellilng us how geat he is before the game.
    I will wait for the results after the games are played.

  4. Well Jackie, Big Bam, and Freddy I guess we are all in agreement. I mean do the people who compile these list actually watch game film? Or do they just know who Banners father is, look at his height and weight, and hear he played basketball in high school and go ” he’s an All American”.

    This has really gone too far now. He has not played like a first team Pac 12 tackle at any point of his career as of yet. He has no business on that list with Juju. Let’s hope that Callaway has been able to awaken the boy and make these analytics list makers look good.
