*****GAME THREAD: TEXAS VS. USC*****

[Aaron Carrara]

The Texas Longhorns (1-1, 0-0) and the USC Trojans (1-1, 0-1) will meet for the seventh time in history on Saturday night in Austin.  The Longhorns are in search of their 900th all-time win and their second of the season, while USC is reeling from a 17-3 loss to Stanford last week.  Look for the Longhorns to try and establish a running game early on via the efforts of grad transfer tailback Tre Watson.  USC’s rush defense ranks 117th out of 129 teams, and Tom Herman will try to exploit that.

It took Maryland into the fourth quarter before they had 100 yds of offense.

OU secondary is terrible. ISU really doing whatever they want on offense at this point. True colors show when you don’t play a potato team
