    USC doesn't run the ball. I like our chances.

    running the ball is what brought them back last night
    Yeah but they don't REALLY run the ball.

    Disclaimer: I didn't watch and I don't know what I'm talking about. Assumed they were air raidy with the 5 td passes.

    UW has a better defense. USC has a better offense.

    Overall, I think USC is the better team, they have better talent at the more important positions.

    Also, they haven't played like total pussies for half the season, trailed by 21 points to bad teams, or cracked the 30 point barrier only once.

    Last I checked we have the worst run D in the Pac 12.

    All USC needs to do is look at our game film.

    But Helton might not be that smart.
    Neither team has a great defense, I just think UW's is probably slightly better due to their ability to defend against high-volume passing offenses.

    USC just gave up over 500 yards and 38 points to UCLA, so I'm not ready to crown their ass.

    If I was Coastal Carolina I wouldn’t start prepping for USC quite yet. If Shuck and the offense manage to not turn it over as often as they’re accustomed to this could be a game. UCLA’s defense has been more aggressive than Oregon’s, but hopefully the extra few days of prep help.

    USC’s luck is going to eventually run out, and I never count Clay Helton out of fucking something up.

    USC’s defense has been worse than appears. They give up the same yards per play that Oregon does, with an equally horrible run defense. They also average 40 fewer yards of offense on 10 more plays per game. Luckily for Oregon the pass defense is the slightly less awful part of the defense. Game will probably hinge on Shuck not turning it over, so that’s as comforting as a rest stop bathroom along a particularly methy section of I-5.
