bretticus33 6 USC survived by a hair in Corvallis against a good Oregon State team. Their offense had a lot of struggles and Caleb Williams’ Heisman campaign took a huge hit, but the Trojan defense is legit. The rate they’re manufacturing takeaways might not be sustainable though.

PumpSmash 6 What the hyeck? This is what makes me ask: who the hell is good this season? After 5 placements, we're already getting into the questions. The reason I'm not worried about Georgia, who had a clunker against Kent State, versus USC, who had a clunker against Oregon State, is the difference in offensive production. THIS is Lincoln Riley? Held to 3 points in a half? Held to 17 points in a game? Against Oregon State? Very strange. Hopefully Oregon State didn't just give other teams the blueprint to knock Caleb Williams off. But that was a confusing one, for sure. USC should still be very good the rest of the season if they don't let that happen again.

crownebeach 8 USC fans want everyone to give their defense credit for being aggressive and ballhawking, but unlike most people, I actually watched the Stanford and Oregon State games -- of the eight turnovers across those two games, five were mistakes by the offense. No, USC's defense is not as bad as I thought it might be, but their offense isn't as good, either. This is still a great football team but their SOR does not tell the story of how much they've been playing with fire, and it has a good chance of catching up with them in the next three weeks.

ikindalikelemons 9 It's a good thing not many people watched that Oregon State game. You might have come away with the notion that neither team was as good as advertised. Points for the defense bailing the offense out on a Lincoln Riley team for once, but they slip a bit.

nw____ 11 Did not expect the offense to lay a giant egg against Oregon State. Still, a win's a win. Is their turnover luck sustainable? (Also, stop putting games on the PAC-12 Network, I am not good at finding alternative ways to watch games).

Comit22 4 Despite the close game, I had Oregon St. ranked last week (and just missed this week) so this doesn't push USC down much at all. Penn State's inability to truly crush a bad Central Michigan team keeps USC here.

Due_Connection179 4 I flipped back and forth between Clemson & USC a lot this week. I'm higher on Oregon State than most people currently are, and that Fresno State stomping shouldn't be overlooked. The Trojans need a big-time win over Arizona State this week and need to take care of a sneaky good Washington State team before traveling to #11 Utah for what could decide USC's PAC-12 fate with them not playing #16 Oregon in the regular season.

Dawg-Bite 6 Struggle win. Their game was on PAC Network so I couldn’t watch but I don’t really see anyone to put above USC as of now. Maybe Clemson but I feel like USC and Clemson are basically interchangeable at this point.
