Coach Lincoln Riley sees Saturday’s game against No. 5 Washington as ‘an opportunity,’ but it could also be what sinks the No. 20 Trojans’ once-lofty hopes
USC head coach Lincoln Riley said last week ‘hell yeah,’ he believes the Trojans can win the Pac-12 Conference despite their defensive struggles this season. I’m leaning toward the late great Yogi, the sage Yankees catcher whose sporting proverbs resonate still because of how true they remain.
Those three games, though? This gauntlet: Washington at home, Oregon on the road and then UCLA back at the Coliseum – that’s the No. 5, No. 6 and 19 teams in theUSC checks in at No. 20, which at once feels generous and not at all what we all expected when the season began in late August. They’ve given up 213 points in their past five games, or 42.6 points per, which is third most in all of college football in that timeframe.
