weird final drive by SC

like you're unlikely to win anyway, but you're certainly not gonna win getting it five yards at a time

[u/apadin1 → u/assault_pig]

They absolutely gave up. Pretty pathetic response from Riley

[u/Vegetarian-Catto → u/apadin1]

I get them giving up, they’re losers with no culture. But they gave up so freaking slowly. I don’t get that.

[u/-holocene → u/apadin1]

Typical soft USC team since Carroll's departure, guess I shouldn't be surprised

[u/Noble_amplified → u/apadin1]

Their fans are just as soft. They started leaving when USC failed to convert on 4th and 7 with 7 minute to go and 3 timeouts. The game was tied 

[u/pjinsd → u/assault_pig]

Thank you for saying what i was thinking the final 2:03. Was more like they were running down the clock to kick the game winning FG with 1 second left. But they were down by 14!!!! 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

[u/time_adc → u/pjinsd]

Everyone in the stands around me was commenting on the clock management. "Riley is saving his timeouts for the next game!"

[u/breakwater → u/assault_pig]

I don't know what the announce crew was thinking. USC is picking up 5 yards at a time with a minute left and not using their timeouts. They are down by two touchdowns. Still the crew was speaking as if USC was just going to have to hurry up during a possible second possession as if the Trojans were putting themselves in any possession for a first touchdown.

[u/KiffinSchoolofEthics → u/breakwater]

It felt as though they were kind of glazing / cheering on the Trojans under the radar a bit it at times. Maybe that's just me idk

[u/assault_pig → u/KiffinSchoolofEthics]

mostly I think they just don't want to be on the broadcast saying 'wtf is this coach doing'

riley seemed like he was trying to score a TD as time expired, rather than trying for a second possession

[u/twoinvenice → u/assault_pig]

As a point of comparison, Northwestern last night was playing to win, and their clock management and execution was fucking on point to give them the chance to try and win the game if things went their way. It didn’t go that way, but they fucking tried and didn’t give up.

This game tonight? Horseshit at every level

[u/PinkUnicornsRule → u/KiffinSchoolofEthics]

There was a pass in the first quarter where a USC DB stopped early and jumped to bat the ball away, missed by several inches, the Oregon WR caught it, and if the announcers said *at least twice•: “that was almost an interception!”

Not only did the DB not come close to intercepting, he didn’t even make contact with the ball. Dick riding continues unabated.

[u/IceColdMo → u/assault_pig]

That FOOL needs to go, I just wanted to vomit watching that abysmal showing throughout the entire game.

[u/TheManEatingSock → u/IceColdMo]

maybe you can get JMU's new guy and you can have JMUCLA vs JMUSC

[u/thesuch → u/assault_pig]

Koi Perich mossing his own teammate in the endzone for the pick was certainly something

[u/PrestigiousEmu16 → u/assault_pig]

Looked like they gave up but were still calling timeouts to extend the game anyway. It was weird as hell.

[u/bowls4noles → u/assault_pig]

Imagine living in a world where Iowa knows a2 minute drill better than USC

[u/Viron_22 → u/assault_pig]
