Did you watch the SC game? Caleb Williams is the unfortunately the real deal, despite your many objections. Now, there not going to get multiple pick 6’s every game but that offense is going to be a challenge for Pac teams….

Caleb Williams is the real deal vs Rice, duly noted.

SUC scored 66 points, 21 of which are on Pic-sixes. So otherwise they scored 45. Against Rice. Yes I am so impressed. Last year Rice ranked 109th out of 130 schools in allowing opponent passing efficiency.

Their team has been hyped in the media, somewhat for good reason.
Their stadium is on campus for the most part.
And Ucla football fans find excuses

Are you implying that 37,000 USC students showed up?

No, you just read the headline

You missed the rest of what I wrote.

That's okay.
I agree Ucla fans have no excuses for poor showing at the Rose Bowl or on the road.
Ucla wins for having fairweather fans. This week has not been fairweather.
Usc has more fans outside of alumni.
And I bet 10-15K students showed up.
Lots of fans live near the Coliseum.
I would bet the Arroyo Seco residents avoid the Rose Bowl during Ucla home games.
We will see how many fans show up Friday Sept 30th vs Washington, when school has started, and then vs Utah.
At least my son was at the Rose Bowl yesterday, on the field, as part of the athletic training staff, representing our family.
