Actually, if you add up all the players who left for the NFL /graduated and add them to the numerous players already injured, I have no problem with the team. I just think some USC fans have unreasonable expectations from the team and that, as of right now, there are some better teams in college football.
My main problem tonight was with some of the guys doing a pregame stomp on the Washington State logo. It's bush league and has never been part of USC. I'm sure Carroll will address this.
I for sure think they are in a rebuilding stage with especially all the injuries.
I think a lot of talent left last year in all of College football and that it's weaker overall anyway this year.
