USC sure runs some horrible offense

Tim Floyd is the only guy that can make OJ Mayo look mediocre

you gotta run stuff for derozan, his range is increasing and he's an incredible athlete

[Kodii Rockets]

I really hope DeRozen stays in school for at least another year and doesn't chase the money, I think that kid's going to be a great contributor if he can learn the game/himself a bit more amongst his collegiate contemporaries.

I agree somewhat.

Hackett being hurt last year often didn't help, forcing Mayo to play the point.

But I agree I wish he would implement more run and gun.

Yup. The offense was bad last year, when they Hackett, Lewis and Gibson, plus Mayo and Davon Jefferson.

they should stay close with MSU here for the first half or so, but MSU will pull away in the 2nd when SC will not be able to put the ball in the net enough to keep up.

Yea but the difference is that USC is a national championship contender Every year in football. The same cannot be said for Duke, they get love no matter how mediocre they are.

Hence the comparison to Notre Dame.

As I said the year he's talking about the Trojans were 12-0 and coming off back to back titles.

I just learned that I picked USC to beat Michigan St.

I know remember doing it, but it caught me off guard.

Right. And Duke basketball has NEVER had back to back championships?

And why would I be jealous of USC? Texas beat y'all.
