Oct 18 | USC

[InKellyWeTrust]

USC is good, which will make it even better when we beat them next week.

 

[lcaps20]

Maiva will throw us a few though. Just need CJ and the offense to get out of the mini funk they're in the past two weeks.

 

[NDPhilly]

USC is so so good at beating themselves. Their offense almost every year would be unstoppable if they could play a clean game.

 

[stlnd01]

Oof that would've been a stake through Michigan's heart. Instead we've still got a ballgame.

 

[IrishSpartan]

30 is a problem

 

[Dale]

Michigan isn’t fitting counter on those big runs which is the cornerstone of the Riley offense

 

[CANONIZEFATHERSORIN]

I have to be honest guys I hate Michigan way more than USC. And out SoS needs them to win

SC

Huge gap,…

 

[zelezo vlk]

Their kicker just hit a 54 yard FG. Really expected him to miss.

Not even close for me. I dislike USC, hate them during our game week, but I loathe Michigan with toxicity.

 

[stlnd01]

Yeah, USC is the team you love to hate. Michigan is the team you really hate.

 

[FOTY977]

Can’t pussyfoot around the goal line and leave points on the board next week.

 

[calvegas04]

Gonna be a battle, the secondary better be ready. Their RB looks good too

 

[SeekNDestroy]

USC looks to be a very strong team. They’ve shown the ability to rack up yards on the ground and in the air and they’re also very disciplined. Next week could make or break the season.

 

[calvegas04]

Defense is much improved too

 

[greyhammer90]

Ranked matchup baybeeee

 

[stlnd01]

As someone said earlier this week, they are a Top 15 team at home. Road trips to the Midwest seem to be in their head. Not underestimating, as they are talented, can move the ball, and their defense will be the best we face since (or after) A&M. But I'm glad we're playing them at home.

 

[Bane]

Playing Michigan will do that to you.

 

[ACamp1900]

Yeah, USC is the team you love to hate. Michigan is the team you really hate.

You can tell many of yall never lived in so cal. I HATE both with a passion but yeah,… nothing comes close to SC hate

 

[Dale]

USC will not be able to to use any of their game plan on D against us

Michigan has an abysmal passing attack and lost their best player the RB in game.

 

[pumpdog20]

This seems like the most physical SC team in years.

Also fuck michigan, fuck usc, fuck fsu

 

[greyhammer90]

Flying in for this one. So pumped. Should be a playoff game atmosphere considering it is one for both teams.

FUSC

 

[NDWarrior]

Yeah, USC is the team you love to hate. Michigan is the team you really hate.

I have to say, over the last 20 years, we’ve laid a big, fat goose egg with pOSU, so at this point, and at least since the MF era, it has become OSU. I’m praying for a CFP championship rematch where we finally beat (hopefully crush!) them! And then Ryan Day can cry and finally admit Lou Holtz was right about his team! 🍀🍀🍀

I lived in Southern California for years and still live on the West Coast. Honestly, most USC fans don't care enough about the program to really be obnoxious. Sure, they can be a little cocky, but nothing like Michigan fans. Michigan is a cult, USC just has a strong tradition.

 

[BeatSC]

Born and raised in SoCal since the 60’s so I’ve had to live with some ups and downs and given this is an annual rivalry there’s no comparison imo. It seems if you live closer to Michigan you hate them more than USC. I lived thru the Anthony Davis game and the next worse loss the Bush push game. I’m not an ND grad but USC is to LA what ND is to Chicago. Walk around like they are special and better than you. Tight network out here just like ND is back there. Difference is ND has always had academic and other high standards for their players while USC just doesn’t. I like to wear my ND gear out and about and I prefer to have the last win under my belt so I can strut and puff my chest out. When we beat USC the giant green ND flag goes up.

 

[Bane]

Colin is cocky, I feel very confident now.
