USC vs. Stanford Second Half Open Thread
Les Miles-esque clock management aside, it was a perfectly scripted opening half for USC.
The nation's 116th ranked passing defense held Andrew Luck to just 129 yards through the air. Outside of a Stanley Havili fumble, the offense largely took care of the ball, and won the time of possession category despite deferring to the second half. For the most part, they didn't do anything stupid (just 2 penalties for 10 yards) en route to two offensive touchdowns. In short, they kept themselves in the game.
But what was most remarkable about the first 30 minutes was the fact that 'SC's offense looked explosive against a Stanford team largely considered to be more disciplined, and at some positions, even more talented. Despite a running game that produced just 47-yards on the ground, Matt Barkley threw for nearly 200 yards, and freshman wideout Robert Woods tallied 117 of those yards with seven receptions and a touchdown.
Some of the same problems exist. Poor tackling. The defense is often out of position, particularly when plays break down (see: any Andrew Luck run). And the use of timeouts raised a few eyebrows yet again.
But as a unit, they're making plays on offense, and not throwing in the towel even with many opportunities to do so. They're in position to pull off the upset. It'll be tough, but considering how the first half went, it's certainly within the realm of possibilities.
This is your second half thread. Post away.
FIGHT ON!

Will they win?
Fuck if I know, but a couple decent drives on offense to help keep the defense from getting completely gassed would be a good thing.

Quick Score
we need to come out and score on the opening drive.
Defense will wear down in the 4th quarter.
they need Big Plays to keep them pumped up.
Havili's fumble
And Rojo’s ball that dropped really hurt us… Hopefully we’ll replace those plays with touchdowns.
Woods!

What was the call on the penalty?
Doesn’t the receiver have to go more than 5 yards before he can’t be touched. Otherwise, he went less than 5, came back around and Horton checked him. It’s not Horton’s fault that he’s that strong, and the receiver got bumped out of the play.
What’s the deal?

"When the seagulls follow the trawler, it's because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea"
I’m more concerned about Monte and his use of these guys. The D is bad but the players just don’t look as bad as the scheme and the situations they’re put in. Are they bing coached to not look for the ball and just play the man?
I don't want to harp on any one player, but. . .
Devon Kennard cannot cover. He’s too close to pick up the receiver coming out of the backfield AND he gets popped out of making the tackle by a receiver.
I don’t get it. Galippo has got better coverage and he EATS blockers to make the tackle.

On the goal line stand before the half, on 2 consecutive plays the TE held, on the third he pulled the right arm and twisted our guy around. It’s an atrocious game that’s being called.

Are you serious? Looking for a moral victory? The defense is shitsville. 1:15 and 75 yards to go and they can’t stop them? Two weekd in a row? Fuck holding their heads up. The O is awesome but the defense is pathetic.
Yes. But you know what? I’m pleased the offense didn’t just fall apart when it counted. They did their job. The defense is what it is.
"When the seagulls follow the trawler, it's because they think sardines will be thrown into the sea"

Look, I’m not thrilled they lost. I am relieved that they didn’t get prison raped. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that.

What’s going to change for the rest of the season? Yeah, they can’t defend against the pass, and the players are put deep guaranteeing yards for the opposition. That’s where we are. It’s not fun, and we’re going to get bitten again. But me yelling isn’t going to do anything about that.

If the D doesn’t improve we’re looking at 6-7. Oregon, Oregon St, ASU, Arizona are licking their chops. Take your pick among Cal, UCLA, and ND as to which of those win.
You're fucking delusional
we almost beat a top 10 team on the road. best QB in the country. need to check yourself, bro.
You can't put sanctions on the fkn endzone! Bowls are for salad!
We had the game won. Then we let it slide. What do you think the record will be, based on the “prevent” defense of the last two weeks?
okay so go coach defense then

Delusional? Give me a break.
Only OU being favored? Ha!
SC loses to Oregon, OSU, Arizona and Notre Dame, definitely. 7-6 best case scenario.
As I said on a post before, too many USC fans are delusional. This defense, run by Monte Kiffin, is terrible.
You, my friend, are delusional
Zona and ND suck. Are you manic-depressive?

It was unfortanate, I mean, we lost the last two games by a combined 3 points. But like DFW said, this year was kind of lost cause because of the sanctions and junk, plus it’s LK’s first season.
Yeah I’m pissed we lost this game because of lack of discipline, missed opportunities, LK’s clock management before the half and other things, but it is what it is (I hate that phrase).
You know what...
taking more lumps this year, might be a blessing in disguise. maybe we win the appeal? coaches are sure to improve the D eventually? kind of a lost year anyway.
transition year. I see us playing better than last year with less. we are already progressing and Lane is just getting started.

why do they storm the field for this?
I mean good win but isn’t this overkill? SC is not good enuff to warrent storming the field. Ill be at the colli next weekend for the bears. Hope we can come out swinging! Fight On!

New money
They dont know how to act.
To improve, they should try to become the musical southern cal of the west. - bRuins Nation poster on the Stanford band.

storming the field? really?
Sorry I just had to say it one more time. Really… Storming the field? Ok.

take it as a compliment... a win over USC
… still a big thing to any team, regardless if they are the higher ranked team
So what’s worse? Storming the field if you’re at the game or a bunch of folks here saying that the loss is okay? Making excuses is bullshit….we had this game and should have won it but we didn’t. They should storm the field because if this kind of attitude (“it’s okay…they were supposed to win!”) keeps up they won’t bother storming the field in two years.
I just think its lame when you are a double digit favorite
I expected USC to lose. They lost. I’m not glad they did, but they played hard. Its not good, but it could be worse — did you see the UCLA – Cal game?
So….we’re UCLA now? Moral victories? This is what killed USC in the Smith/Tollner/RobinsonII/Hackett era….
Bro, again
SANCTIONS, COACHING STAFF CHANGE, DEATH PENALTY LIGHT, LOST TRANSFERS AND RECRUITS!!!
We barely lost on the road to a great team. We played our best game of the year. Lane and Ed are the best recruiters in the country.
Are you not aware that ’Furd boat-raced us 55-24 at home last year? We are IMPROVING, despite incredible obstacles.

Are we?
I honestly don’t see all this improvement. The offense is still good, playing better, but that’s completely expected. Every unit on every team gels a little bit more game to game. Nothing to write home about.
Where we need improvement — defense — we still suck. The defense allow a game winning drive for the second week in a row.
Glad people are looking for the silver lining, but as long as we’re stuck with this defense, I plain don’t see it unfortunately. What am I missing?
No moral victory here
the Defense sucks — its a loss. Should I call or Lane’s head? Who will coach us? This season is a moral victory, it proves we’re not dead
no moral victory here!
We, I mean this team should be and could be 6-0. I can acknowledge the good but the bad is bad. I still feel like this team is playing the other team and the refs and that’s no BS. Holding all over the place and targeting etc. I do like Kiffin and I see a bright future when the D catches up to the O. This still sucks.

You should see what the Furd do when they win over San Jose State?
And. . . . there’s always the Big Game? (for Trees, they sure do a lot of storming and running)

Don't step, jump!
But, don’t come back next year, just like you did in 2002.

Well...
So much for that article asking whether Barkley cares about winning.
Team played their butts off, even on defense. Talent issue there, not heart.

Post game thread is up so lets move it over there...
