Always nice to come out and put up a 50+ point performance and a shutout after a slugfest win like you had against PSU..

Bender was on fire 19/22.. Good play calling and not forcing what's not in front of you. Sometimes I do that too

Its been a lot of that, especially with the new sliders. Just getting used to what I can and can't do after playing against the same sliders for a few seasons. Old ones if I had a guy open on a streak I had to bullet pass and lead it, if I lobbed it they would run under it and make the leaping INT. Now its the complete opposite lol

Our passing game as a whole has been better at home, so thankfully after this road game with Rutgers (where Bender struggled again) we are home for all except the Bruins

RIGHT - The Knights offense floundered in the 2nd half, but Battles put the screws to them early with this 68 yard bomb on the run as Rutgers put up more points in the 1st half (17) than any team had in an entire game against the "Wall of Troy."

Piscataway, NJ. - The Rutgers Scarlett Knights put up more points in the 1st half of this afternoons matchup against the USC Trojans than any other team has in 2032 against the vaunted "Wall of Troy" defense.

Even that herculean effort was not enough to slow down the Trojans Fast & Furious RB duo who put up a combined 278 yards (Shembo 163 & 3 TD / Velasco 116 & 2 TD) as the Trojans ground out the eventual 49-20 victory late in October.

USC jumped up to a quick 14-0 lead, but after an Andre Bender interception set up the Scarlett Knights 1st points of the contest (41 yard FG) the Knights finally had the confidence to start moving the ball successfully against the Trojans defense. Rutgers would score two touchdowns in the 2nd quarter, one of a grueling 13 play drive before a quick 69 yard touchdown to close out the 1st half, but much to the dismay of the home crowd the Trojans would match the pair of touchdowns to take a 28-17 lead into the break.

Without the threat of a double digit deficit the Scarlet Knights offense was able to do what no other team has accomplished this season, establish an effective running game. Rutgers RB Kelvin Merrick would churn out 153 rushing yards, including 78 in the 2nd half, but as the field shrunk so did his running lanes. Without the threat of Merrick exploding out of the back field QB John Battles struggled finding open receivers leaving the Knights with a lone field goal in the 2nd half despite 148 yards of offense.

John Battles wasn't the only quarterback who struggled as Andre Bender joined the party completing less than 50% of his passes, one week after completing 86% at home, although the junior did manage to go 6/10 in the 2nd half to keep the Knights defense from loading the box against the run.

USC will return home with their 40 game win streak in tact, but with plenty concerns about the continued struggles of Andre Bender and the passing game as they prepare to host the #17 Ohio State Buckeyes (6-2) in a critical Big Ten clash.

"It's been quite a few years since we've faced them[USC], so don't think the results of games with players that have long left school matter too much this weekend," commented OSU coach Ryan Day when asked about the three consecutive losses to USC from 2025-2027. What will matter "much" this weekend for the Buckeyes is their anemic run defense, especially with the Heisman contending duo of PJ Shembo and Manny Velasco awaiting in LA. The Buckeyes allowed an alarming 198 rushing yards in their upset loss to UMass two weeks ago, but rebounded with a convincing 35-7 win over Maryland last week in which they only allowed 33 rushing yards total. The Trojans pass defense has feasted on opposing quarterbacks this season, only allowing two total touchdowns all season while logging 52 sacks and if that wasn't enough to scare Buckeyes SR QB Terrelle Jones the fact that his starting LT is out for this game should.

USC Defense Snags Three 4th Q INT To Seal Victory


Terrelle Jones couldn't have picked a worse time to make his 1st mistake of the game. SS Jose Zimmons snagged the 1st of three 4th Q interceptions while Ohio State was looking for the go-ahead score in the 21-17 game.

Los Angeles, CA. - If you were looking for evidence to prove that the Big Ten is currently THE premier conference in college football, you've got it with the matchups the Trojans and their Big Ten rivals have put together this season.

The Trojans blew through the #10 Ole Miss Rebels and #5 Florida State Seminoles earlier this season, but for their 3rd time this season a ranked Big Ten squad has given the defending back to back champs a run for their money.

Ohio State was in a 7-0 deficit before some Trojans fans found their seat thanks to a punt return TD by Terrance Vaughns after a quick three and out by Terrelle Jones and Co.

Most teams would be rattled by the quick special teams score, but the Buckeyes collected themselves and put together a grueling 13 play drive over the course of 7 minutes before Allen Diaby powered into the end zone from 1 yard out.

USC would respond with an equally grueling 17 play epic that included 3 4th down conversions on the drive before Andre Bender found TE Matt Cummings on a 26YD corner route to retake the Trojan lead.

The Trojans would add a second touchdown drive before the break thanks to rushs of 15, 11, and finally 14 yards by Manny Velasco for the TD and a 21-7 USC lead at the break.

Despite the pair of touchdown drives in the 2nd quarter the Trojans came out utterly flat to start the 2nd half as the Buckeyes forced them into a pair of three and outs. While USC was struggling, the Buckeyes were finally rolling on offense with runs of 44 and 6 yards by Shaquille Burfict before Diabey went airborne for his 2nd TD of the day to cut into the Trojan lead.

The Buckeyes had a shot at tying the game as the 3rd quarter wound down, but were forced to settle for a 43 yard field goal at the onset of the 4th quarter after the 11 play drive stalled on 3rd and 11.

With the Buckeyes offense going 2/2 in the 2nd half and nursing a 21-17 lead USC head coach Kyle Red knew the offense had to at least put up a three spot to keep the pressure on Terrelle Jones and the Buckeyes.

Southern Cal would get off to a hot start thanks to completions of 10 yards to Wayne Nailor followed by 13 and 22 to Terrance Vaughns, but would face a crucial call on 4th and 4 from the Buckeyes 33.

"Shakir has been shaky all season, especially from 45+, so I put the trust on my undefeated junior QB to ice the game," rationalized Kyle Red when asked about the crucial 4th down call.

While we don't know if Kalu would have nailed the nearly 50 yard field goal, we do know that Manny Velasco would drop the bullet pass from Bender as the Trojans turned the ball over on downs, giving the Buckeyes the ball at their own 33 with 6:18 to play.

After being walked down the field twice in the 2nd half, the vaunted "Wall of Troy" finally flexed their muscles as SS Jose Zimmons recovered on a busted deep route to break Terrelle Jones' heart with his 1st interception of the contest.

The Trojans offense wouldn't miss a 2nd time in crunch time as PJ Shembo finished off the quick 5 play, 53 yard drive with a 6 yard TD catch to push the USC lead to 11 points with 4:13 remaining.

Terrelle Jones was nearly perfect on the day leading up to the interception by Jose Zimmons, going 15/18 up to that point, but with the pressure mounting and the chances of a win dwindling away the senior QB started to crack.

Jones would finish the afternoon 4/7 (including the Zimmons INT) with all three incompletions being interceptions as the Buckeyes offense limped to the finish line of the eventual 35-17 loss.

"We played our hearts out on the road against the #1 team in the country," justified Ohio State coach Ryan Day, "They're back to back champs and riding a 41 game win streak for a reason.

"You've got to play a complete game for all 60 minutes and unfortunately for. us we fell about 4 minutes short of that."

The win brings the USC Trojans win streak up to 41 games, dating back to the 2030 season opener, as they move into 3rd place on the all-time list. USC will have a chance to move into a tie for 2nd place with the 2025-'27 Trojans when they host the Oregon Ducks (6-3) at The Coliseum next week.

Then the Ducks came out and baffled the nation with a 45-14 loss to Northwestern at Autzen Stadium, knocking the Ducks out of the rankings and out of contention for the Big Ten Conference Championship with three losses already. When the Oregon Ducks are clicking, they are one of the most dangerous teams in the league with a top 10 offense in the nation, but defensively is where their struggles lie. Statistically they are in the bottom 3rd of the nation and have given up an average of 37 PPG in their three losses, Oregon's high powered offense has struggle playing without a lead, facing a deficit after the 1st quarter in all three of their losses this season, so getting off to a quick start is imperative JR QB Mike Yoder.
