Washington at USC Nov 4 NCAA Futball. Huskies have been the darling of Pac 12( or is it 14?)this football season. Wash offense has been strong with passing thrusts from QB Penix. USC showed offensive promise early in season but may have def flaws as well. (Wash -4.5. 75.5 O/U) Likely a high scoring game but I will go contrarian and suggest buying 2.5 points and take the 77 Sunset Strip Under bet. USC may step up to keep this close. Not certain but would probably take moneyline on Huskies. Hold off in case of any last minute injuries in which case consider Trojans if any key Husky injuries. SC may play better than what they show on stats. Post other views?

Yea Oregon is good and it's a difficult place to play. And, yes, USC is not very good save 1 player. But, 17+- looks very interesting.

Not today. Ucla has 0 offense to attack usc weak defense. Usc already lost to ND, chance at conference title game. This is Rileys last gasp!. ML USC around -220.

Williams will probably go #1 but a lot of his numbers are running around with his hair on fire then finding someone open.

That's going to change in the pros.

UCLA's speed shut him down today except for some big plays outside the pocket.

He is a great college Qb, then again so was Manziel.

I think it was evident from the get-go that the team was well aware of Williams having cashed it in after the U W loss. Agree, this guy could very well be a huge loss in the pro game.

UCLA frosh Dante Moore entered the portal today. Perfect fit across the street. If anything, Riley can develop quarterbacks. The kid has talent but a little raw.

Sounds like UW, Oregon, Michigan and FL St are also good candidates.

Yep, I forgot he's from the Detroit area. Add Michigan St too.

USC's current history of raiding the portal will hurt their recruiting. If they opt for the Coastal or Duke guys what happens to the guys waiting their turn. They're gone. Vicious cycle.

This is a problem for ND also. They lost two qbs when the WF qb transferred in last year.

yup only 19yo but a 5 star out of Detroit. i watched him play live early on at the rose bowl and he looks the part, has the raw skills no doubt.

but he may want to go back much closer to home and get the hell outta CA

Riley has gotten so much shit about the defense I believe him when he said we'll be much improved next year, I guarantee it.

Starting with poaching Bruin DC.

So, you think ucla defense skeems, etc were/are better. Foo! A cursory look at common teams doesn't excite me.

I saw all their games. Their problem was a inability to tackle. That's effort. At minimum he can improve on that.

"According to a report from KSO's Derek Young, USC head coach Lincoln Riley flew to meet with quarterback Will Howard this weekend.

Howard most recently played for Kansas State, and he ranks as On3's No. 2 player in the transfer portal."


I don't like these panic moves...
