USC pounds the Buffs 48-41, Corchfest

Realistically though Colorado had no timeouts and going out of bounds doesn't stop the clock, so there really wasn't much Colorado could have done better for time management....

They have been ****ting the bed on both sides of the ball

They looked sloppy early and tired late. To me, that's a function of the travel and game time.

When was the last time you saw a 10AM start time for a college football game? Honestly, I cannot ever recall a game starting that early.

This is one of those games where the new clock rules kind of ruined the ending. I really dislike that new rule.

At a minimum, they should change it to the final four minutes, instead of the final two minutes.

I agree. 10am start time is ridiculous.

But both teams started at the same time. The body clock sucks but these guys are basically Professionals and young.

I’ll give you the altitude of playing in Colorado but miss me with the time excuse. These kids practice early in the morning to avoid the heat so let’s not act like their not accustomed to waking up and smacking pads before lunch…

SC is what they've been for most of the last decade, SOFT. They lack that killer instinct and honestly, Lincoln Riley isn't that kind of coach. He's a Coach whose ceiling is limited by his style of play and the program he wants to run. You can't be all speed and no physicality and expect to win titles and that's the kind of team Lincoln wants. Wonder how long will SC boosters tolerate being 11-1 every year, but getting rolled the moment a physical team comes to town.

You can tell the difference between Oregon and SC, Oregon is a physical team, they are playing southern style football on the West Coast. There's a reason why they manhandled CU, and didn't let up.

Again, USC had a 2.5 hour flight yesterday where they lost an hour. Then they likely had to be up, fed, dressed and on the bus to the stadium by 7:30AM today.

You may have seen me rant about what I call the worst start time in college football, which is a 12:00-noon kickoff on the road the day after Thanksgiving. That's what the ACC gave UM this season. ****, the ACC didnt even try to hide it. They slotted UM for that start time before the season. (ACC Network)
 
Riley is obviously offensively genius. But how can he just ignore D? Can’t he just give up the reigns to someone else who can actually handle it? Same crap at Oklahoma, which Venebles will have fixed in a year or two.

Seems like such a waste of talent.
