    I feel like the back end has improved in size and talent. If Reed, Presley, Mohammed and Dixon can rotate at corer maybe Morrel can use Powell at safety. He’s a good tackler, lots of game experience and faster than Cook. The LBs on roster are too slow. None of them can cover a wheel route or keep up with a TE. Eddy O. Is a decent downhill LB but this team needs a hash to hash burner. They don’t have a single guy on the roster that can fit that bill unless you move Dom there. Tupatala and Bruener are good depth pieces and great on special teams but they look like they run in mud when the opponent has speed.

    This is my assessment at LB as well. Too slow. Goforth should help in that regard but *we really need another like that imo.

    My favorite/least favorite part of USC and UCLA leaving is they have to leave because they can't compete nationally from the Pac-12 but the biggest part of the problem is they aren't carrying their own fucking water in the conference and have mostly sucked for more than 10 years now. I'm sure joining a possibly stronger conference all the way across the country will solve that. I'm sure Lincoln Riley's tough defense will love defending 60 runs against Wisconsin in sub zero temps in November.

    I will chortle at the future November schedules for USC, given how much they insisted on avoiding Seattle/Pullman in November over the years. They have to have at least 1 cold as fuck November game each year and should have 2 some years, unless the B1G adjusts the schedule to let these two stay home all November. Assuming they play each other in the last week, that's 3 Saturdays in November they can be sent to freeze.

    I agree and they are going to regret the change in status... recruiting will now be different as as well because some % of SoCal guys are going to want to stay on the west coast where their families can have the easier time of traveling to a percentage of games. Just a guess, but I'm guessing that happens. Super awkward [stupid] for the BIG to have only 2 west coast teams from a scheduling point of view.

    Ive been saying the entire thing is an abortion since the inception, and it makes even less sense now that they expanded the playoff

    The DAWGS are in a good position
    USC clearly had enough funds to poach OU's head coach and they still fucking suck.

    How is the Big 10 TV money going to help.

    I'll die on the hill that USC has more opportunities to compete for a Natty in the Pac than moving to the Big. All they have to do is hire a fucking good coach.
    Agreed. It's not like they didn't do it before.
