The student section is looking for more than just a win against the Huskies
USC played well. We need a kicker that is better than high school level. We lost the game in a season that means nothing unless USC wins the Pac 10 or better. I have been a fan, student and alumni since 1968. The rest of the year means absolutely nothing. USC has not realized that the details make the difference.
If USC doesn't fire Kiffin, there is no hope for this season. He is not USC! What was that about not taking the three time outs!!! He totally lost the game for us - we were ahead and could have easily won. What an incompetent.
Win or lose, I love my Trojans. No one has a better band or a better mascott, or a better student body, or a better bunch of alums. Fight on!
I totally agree! And what about his old man as the defensive coordinator? What the hell was he thinking about? We had this game. We had the offense. And the defense, which has the skills, was left in the lurch by a clueless coaching staff.
Lane,fire the old man and learn how to smile.
Lane had that deer in the headlights look on his face in the closing minutes. He mismanaged the pass play when he should have ran with Bradford. He trusted a choker kicking. He mismanaged the timeouts. I think he is making things easy for Mr. Haden to bring his own man in.
LAME Kiffin is a disaster worse than Tolner and Monty appears to be senile. Terrible coaching.
I've seen more missed tackles the you would in a sandlot game of touch football.
P.H. shud fire the whole bunch!
