The former Heisman winner has concerns about the Trojans facing the Wolverines this weekend.
Matt Leinart enjoyed a fantastic career with the USC Trojans from 2003-2005 before he was drafted in the first round of the 2006 NFL Draft by the Arizona Cardinals. Leinart was a Heisman winner in '04 and even had a chance to play the Michigan Wolverines in the 2003 Rose Bowl where he was victorious over the Wolverines, 34-23.
“I'm nervous," Leinart told Klatt. "I'm nervous for USC because, remember, you were there last year. What did Michigan run? 32 run plays in a row. I know this team is different. I get that. They lost the offensive line. But you have a quarterback like Orji, who is just an absolute man child, that quarterback. And his strength is running the football.
"And then you combine that with those two running backs Michigan has," Leinart said of Edwards and Mullings. "If Michigan gets to a lead, fairly comfortable. I just worry you might see something like that where USC can't get off the field because they're just running the ball down.
