Keys To The Game
From USC's point of view. USC wins if: The Trojans block and tackle. Oregon does not become a 25-or-41 point underdog.Tailback Stafon Johnson leads the team in carries. Joe McKnight fumbles less than two times. Quarterback Mark Sanchez does not throw more than his customary one interception.
The irreverent Mr. Wolf. If Joe and Mark each have a turnover SC is in trouble.
I am more concerned about the defensive line being able to stop the running attack. If the Ducks can run as well against Troy as they have in their prior games, then this will be a close game. Of course, SC will have an advantage in knowing Oregon probably cannot be too effective through the air, will be forced to run, and thus the Trojans can zero in on this phase of the game.
I'd rather Oregon have a stronger passing game than running. Right now I have more faith in the Trojan's secondary.
Sark will continue to balance out the attack and McNair will shoot for balance in chances according to who earned it in practice. If one back gets hot like McKnight did with Ohio St. then they will get more carries.
Personally I hope AB busts a couple big runs and gets a 100 yard game.
I don't have anything against McKnight but I'd like to see Bradford, Stafon Johnson and/or Gable have big games.
At this time, I want any one of the stable of ponies to really step up and have a "huge" game. Whether it be Joe, AB, Stafon or C.J., I just want to one of them really dominate a game (a complete game). It will take any pressure off of the passing game, which give Mark a chance to hook up with DWillams, Blake, PT and everyone else. Fight On!
SW is NOT happy unless he puts Mark down one way or the other...
