I'm not sure if he started but he has played the most, opposite Auguste. Akeem has been amazing. Culliver has been playing in the slot in nickel situations. Holloman made a big 3rd down play as well. The young secondary has played fantastic. They're all moving around.

[M.O.T.H.]

Garcia is warming up!

[bamatitan81]

Garcia is looking way better.

[M.O.T.H.]

I'm shocked at how many touches Dimarco is getting.

edit...two 3rd and short passes. Brilliant. Come on now.

lol me too

[murdamal86]

glad Garcia just chucked it away on 1st & Goal

[M.O.T.H.]

red zone offense is god awful.

I hate you Lanning.

[bamatitan81]

Spurrier is headed to a heart attack..

I can see why SC always breaks down in the 2nd half of the season.
The defense plays well, spends 3/4 of the game on the field. Then falls apart by the 7th or 8th game.

Aww man im so happy to see my friend Devin Taylor #98 for USC do so great. I graduated with him and dude is a monster.

[iowatreat54]

Man, Garcia looks absolutely awful.

[murdamal86]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[M.O.T.H.]

We dont have it.

[619]

I'd be drooling over what I'm seeing from Norwood if I were a 3-4 team.

[murdamal86]

man if SC can just get 17-24 points a game they are going to beat A LOT of teams this season. This defense is swarming

[M.O.T.H.]

We've come a long way since wiffing on all those tackles against D-Mac and Felix Jones. This is a very sure tackling team.

[M.O.T.H.]

I'm liking Gurley.

Wasn't that their problem last year?

USCeast has always had great D, but their offense is usually terrible. So they win and lose games like 10-7.

[M.O.T.H.]

Yeah. We need more offense. Our defense last year was fantastic but, it just wasnt enough and this year's O doesnt look any better thus far.

Last year...

Lost to Vandy 24-17
Lost to Georgia 14-7
Lost to LSU 24-17

That right there is the difference between our 4-4 conference record and a could have been 7-1 conference record.

That's been the problem for the last 3 years.

Well, it would help if you had a QB that didn't look to his 1st target, then tuck and run.

[Hines]

That Smith kid from NC State is impressing me. Is that Alphonso Smith's cousin?

[JFLO]

Wow, both quarterbacks, Wilson and Garcia just look awful. I think a majority of the blame needs to go to both offensive lines because neither Wilson or Garcia have had a lot of time to get their feet set and find a receiver. But, both have made bad throws and made poor decisions.

So far, player of the game has to be Eric Norwood, he's looking filthy.

Also give some cred to Cliff Matthews, looking really good coming off of the edge.

hasn't it been the problem almost the last two decades?

I think it's just more noticeable now that Spurrier's there.

[M.O.T.H.]

These holes are massive.
