Stop Making Poor Decisions!

USC made its first visit to the Big House since 1958 and left with a 27-24 loss in a game they should have won easily and I have a reaction to the game.

Don’t apologize Marc. You’re frustrated as hell- and clearly you’re not the only Trojan that is. As you know, big fan of SC never played football never will… but I love hearing from you all and learn more about the sport. All I know is they get back in the game and Fight On. ✌️ AnnMarie in Santa Barbara CA.

The offense was horrible as a whole. The line was garbage and wr keep dropping passes as they have all year. We kept running wr screens and they didn't work at all. The wr have not performed all year. This is not on the defense, this is all on the offense.

[scottklase]

Marc, you are 100% spot on with your post game analysis.

[oomagooma]

Calm down Marc...deep the penalties, the turnovers, the refs and the broken plays. This loss is NOT on the Defense. The D gave up 20 points tonight just as they did against O-Plan, O-Line, play calling, and coaching were dreadful. And the O-Staff was not changed in the past year. .If we don't do some of those bad things we did tonight for the remainder of the season, then this game will not have been a On! On to Wisconsin.

[JamesClampitt-jujd]

We do not deserve to win this game. We got out coached and our OL got beat up.

[dougnelson]

First, welcome to the Big Ten. I hope those USC folks who came to the game had fun, despite the behavior or a few bad actors in Blue. Shout out to Holly, Mike, and Larry - cool USC fans we met Friday night at an A2 speakeasy. (We were stunned folks even knew this place existed, but glad they found it.) Great people and fun conversations. Whereas I told them I figured we wouldn't win, they noted concerns about our QB change (and focus on running) and our defense - which actually turned out to be true.

Totally agree that if you came out firing the first half, we could have been in more trouble. I think our punting game, which is really good, impacted that. Good luck to Lemon - none of the fans in my area of the stands even saw what happened, so hope he's ok.

[arcanefilth]

How much longer do we have to keep giving coach Henson a pass for this terrible OL? He had two weeks to prepare for this Michigan pass rush and we couldn’t even run the offense for the last three quarters of the game.

[hrpickinstuff]

USC has the bester offense. So what does Riley do? Let's play conservative in the 1st half and let the crowd into the game. Then at the end with 4 min left. Let's throw 2 passes and burn 11 seconds and then kick the ball to them with plenty of time.

[DontbeahaterbeaHatton]

clr, because he doesn't deserve caps on his abbreviation anymore, can't manage clock to save his life. And Lynn needed to put 8-9 in the box. Credit to Michigan and sherrone Moore because he outcoached lr. Usc played their best. They're missing a little still in the trenches.

[jaimeperez]

I think the O line coach should be on the hot seat watch, I don’t see improvement at all ..

[marcomangano]

WASTED OPPORTUNITY! This is the reason I watch Marc Culkin sitting here in Philly and having my opportunity to brag about our boy Eric Gentry's great game. You covered all the big stuff; and thank you for calling out Branch. He seems afraid to return the ball, especially on punts, unless he has a ton of space. Today he left them with terrible field position multiple times, he made no attempt to come back to the ball on that pick 6, and he dropped multiple passes. If you have star ability, you gotta show up in a game like this - you're not a freshman anymore!

[VersionBest]

This loss is on Lincoln Riley. Terrible game management and play calling.

[errr.antiez]

Here are why we lost in order: No Killer Instincts, Soft Play Calling, OL no presence, Unreliable WRs, Moss doesn't take command, Blind Refs.

[ryanpitts]

Our O Line was AWFUL!! Specifically at LT..Riley play calling does get suspect when SC needs a first down. I thought Miller played a little rattled, but he was running for his life. Zachariah isn't playing with confidence, fair catching punts and no one is within 15 yards. You are spot on about Lake! Send his ass vertical, THATS how he lead the team in receiving..ok I'll have to stop, this comment will get too long. Eric Gentry is a monster!

[MarcelMobley]

Somebody tell Riley u pass to score u run to win the game!

[traxiii]

You read my mind, and hit almost everything I saw. Your rant is 100% on point, and maybe pulled a couple punches I would have landed right after the game.

What the hell is up with how Alani Noa gets set? He barely gets set in time, making a jerking motion, Every Play and cost us penalty yards because the way he gets set. They could have called it many more times. It looks like he's resting or tired, unlike everyone else.

Did the horrible field possession in the first quarter screw up CLR's play calls? He got super conservative and ran the ball into the strength of the UM defense. Why wasn't he rolling out Moss to help with pressure? The game way there for the taking. CLR changed the play on the pick 6, they Baited the Hell out of him, then Miller Telegraphed the play horribly, and Zach didn't execute. Take it away and win?

Your take on Lake is 100% on point, and the short passing game was horrible, too many sideways throws. Fight On!

[lytelime]

If you’re complaining about the officiating in this game wait until USC plays Ohio State. You’ll question your sanity. 😂

[johnanderson]

Isn't Pete Carroll on Campus...big 10 Refs do not like pac 12

[FredVlasuk]

Despite everything you said Marc, which was 100% accurate. they stormed back from a 14-0 deficit and the worst 1st quarter I have ever seen, threw a pick 6, and STILL took a four point lead, got a 3 and out, held Michigan to 7 yards of offense in the second half, ran 33 plays to 11. That's domination in my book. Had the ball on their own 38, but unfortunately a penalty took them back 5 yards so they decided to throw on 2nd and 3rd down, which was dumb.
Then got creased for the first time in the whole second half and Humphrey made a bad effort and Mullings got 60. Got it to 4th down, but couldn't stop them. Absolutely frustrating as hell!! However, just clean some things up and call better plays PLEASE LR and I truly believe we'll be OK.

[tonglee]

Lincoln Riley is not a top notch coach. He is an above average coach.
