it’s time to start the USC discussion. I’ve always dreamed of playing USC, at Rutgers Stadium, so Saturday is a dream come true in a sense. In 2006, or so, I could beat USC in NCAA Football using Ray Rice, Brian Leonard, and Kenny Britt.
These days we have Korey Duff and Antwan Raymond who could start for USC, but we are weak everywhere else, though we are working to get better. We played our best football in the 2nd half of the BC game, and are looking to build upon that effort. Get better, that’s the only priority.
In ‘24 they kept running that stupid crossing route to Makai Lemon, and we couldn’t stop it.
They exposed our lack of speed and range, and are likely to strive to do the same, Saturday.
Hopefully the secondary and lbs will be ready.
Winning can wait. I’m not going anywhere.
Key matchup will likely be Tyler Needham vs Luke Wafle. I wish they would switch Needham with Giwa, but it looks like Needham is the left tackle for now, though they might rotate players during the course of the game. Luke Wafle going to USC illustrates everything that is wrong with our recruiting. Because our value proposition is so weak, we never even made his radar. This is the player we need if we are to be competitive. So we need to improve our value proposition.
If there’s one thing I know, it’s that we are going to win the tailgate Saturday. See you at the game!
