We're used to that. Should feel right at home.

Game will be over by halftime. We play like we are defeated from the start against P4 teams. Latest example, Missouri last year. It's like we have never played before, poor fundamentals.

Hey, we beat Wake in 2024.

Last year in Columbia was just awful. Anything better than that effort is an improvement.

Just need to compete and see what happens.

We always seem to schedule these teams at their peak. USC was terrible for years. I am hoping for a good showing and I will be happy with no turnovers and a run game that keeps the ball out of the hands of USC.

Your right, it does always seem that way. It could be a great opportunity to really make some noise on the national scene. We would need to play near flawless, plus have the ball bounce our way. It's very little chance for all that. What kills me is when we actually have a chance to win the game, like against Florida or Arizona (others too) and then by a miracle, a penalty is called against us. Very similar to the Western Michigan situation. Those are hard to take.

I watched the Fresno st game yesterday. We have no chance of stopping the run on Saturday. OL is big, strong and physical. Going to be a huge miss match.

I agree. I've watched both of their games this year, or at least good portions of both and they look the part. Their QB is very accurate, their receivers are big and fast and that DL is the best we're going to see this year by a longshot. They are nasty up front. There is a freshman 5 star DE named Luke Wafle who is a beast. I am very bullish on USC this year and I'm the opposite with the Cajuns so I don't see this being close for very long. I would love to be wrong though.

Is the DE you referenced number 94? He’s going to be a tough task for Cajuns tackles.

Yep. He's being looked at as one of the best DE prospects in years.
