With what USC has spent on this year's roster, they should be a lot better than #17 in the country.

They compete. They just don’t have enough talent or speed on defense.

The officials are officiating this game like they have been instructed to keep USC in the playoff hunt.

That was clearly a PI on Hall, but how do you miss the complete mug on Aaron Graves that was in plain view of the ref? Should have been offsetting penalties.

This is the worst officiating job I have seen all season.
Also missed the blatant facemask this would have kept the last drive going

Yup. Once again, not ready for Prime Time.

I’m sorry, but Phil Parker is losing it. Defense unprepared in the second half. Can’t hold a lead….AGAIN. Can’t make a stop.
he’s only got run of the mill players and that’s being exposed

Phil Parker didn’t forget how to coach.

At some point, Kirk is going to have to realize that being up 14 points is not a license to go into a shell. This is not the Big Ten West. You can’t score enough points against high octane offenses like USC.

That is a microcosm of why Iowa is about to be 0-13.
In an era where they're telling him "We're going to need 64" he's still hearing "We're going to need 6-4."

Nice choke job, Hawks.

Game over. The only reason I am going to keep watching is to see how much they lose by, and if USC scores on every possession in the second half.

At least I’ll make money, since I bet on USC.
