Well they play Ohio State and Penn State, so I suspect it could very well get worse. And they could get smoked by Northwestern next week. Does Foster even make it to the end of the season?

USC is currently favored at Purdue this week by 21.5 points. If I were a betting man who was willing to bet against his team, I’d take the points. I do think USC wins, but I don’t think they’ll cover. This isn’t last year’s Purdue. Barry Odom came in and it appears he is getting things turned...

:shrug: I said it made sense that they weren’t ranked. Didn’t suggest that it was something that needed fixing.

USC still unranked which makes sense given their opponents (and some perceived weaknesses on D). Will be interesting to see what the number one offense after two weeks can do when they face a real team.

They need to change venues. A 45 minute drive from campus is no way to build (or rebuild) a fan base. Hell, it’s closer to USC’s campus. Plus, a 90,000 capacity stadium in Los Angeles will almost never be sold out for a regular season home game unless they are playing USC.

Losing D’Anton Lynn was a real blow. Also, hiring Deshaun Foster.

Still in the “others receiving votes” category. I’m just happy the offense looked as good as they did in the first outing. I think the defense has enough talent to be an improvement over last year’s squad. It was the offense I was worried about. We’ll see how it goes when they face actual...

It was a total cupcake match up no doubt, but USC should be ranked this coming week.

Similar situation with UCLA and the Rose Bowl.

Massive win for the toffees today!!

Maybe it’s the industry or the vocation, but I feel blessed to have received, but also to have written, a fair number of such letters (some handwritten, others electronic) over the course of my career. I am fully cognizant that my success has not been exclusively of my own making but has been...

What’s the weird part? A departing employee taking the time to write you a note to thank you for your mentorship, guidance, working relationship, etc., or just the fact that they used a pen to do it?

Should/could have been 3-0. Loved the performance.

In Liverpool to catch the first Everton home match in the new stadium tomorrow. Spent my paycheck at the team store and now having a pint at the pub across the street enjoying the City loss. COYB! Edit: Having a second pint surrounded by a bunch of crusty scousers. Stay tuned for more updates!

I posted this early in the thread and I continue to be confused by this sentiment.
