Only a one score game at the half. Their defense does not look good.

Maybe nobody on the AP poll will notice because PAC 12 Network isn't on anybody's TV anymore.

If you lose on the network of a defunct conference so that no one sees it, does it count?

It was chosen to describe a different albatross, but I'll take it.

I guess the B1G wanted to make a move that being said USC and UCLA are bad teams

A Lincoln Riley team will never have a defense worth a damn.

How many years before he ditches the B1G?

Probably NFL bound at some point.

Well, there's really only 2 or 3 teams that he has to worry about and with 18-20 teams the odds are pretty good you never have to face more than 1 or 2 a year. So 10-2 should be the floor.

So fitting for this game to be shown on a network no one gets while SC St and jackson st play on ABC. Dumbass Pac12

This is not a top 10 team.

USC manages to get a 96 yard kickoff return.

If San Jose State had a competent special teams and the QB didn't take a 20 yard sack in 4 down territory, this game would likely be tied.

Their schedule is too easy to be that bad.

They will likely get smoked by Notre Dame whenever they play.

LOL, they'd get waxed by an SEC team.

San Jose needs to bench their punter, he's consistently outkicking coverage.

Since when can coaches challenge for a penalty that wasn't called on the field?

Zach branch is a stud. Wish we could have landed him

I can't wait to see Lincoln Riley get waxed in the BIG. The guy thrives on playing crap teams and playing 1 or 2 decent teams a year. I bet he bails for the pros.

It's week 0. If a team wants to throw a goose egg, this is the best time.

We heard the same thing in 2020 when A&M beat Vandy 17-12 and got killed at Tuscaloosa the next week

It's too early to tell anything.

They do play at ND and at Oregon, but have Utah at home. The ND game is earlier than usual (mid-October).

I don't think they can beat both ND and Utah in back to back weeks. I'd say 10-2 is the ceiling, not the floor.

UCLA sets up nice. No Oregon, no Washington (for some strange reason), and while they play Utah and SC on the road, the latter isn't really a road game. If UCLA can get it going with their relatively easy schedule, look for them to sneak into Vegas.

I also think 10-2 is the ceiling for them this year. Notre Dame looked much, much better than USC did yesterday.

56-28 looks pretty good, but that was almost entirely on the back of Zach Branch. San Jose State does not have a special teams coach and it showed, badly.

They'll be 6-0 rolling into Notre Dame and very well might drop 2 in a row. Then it might be a free-fall for the Trojans.

Anyone notice how much Anthony Lucas was on the field? Saw he had several tackles but didn't get to watch the game

Ole Piss did it to A&M a few years ago.

I didn't watch much of the game but was following on my phone. One thing I kept thinking was USC will eventually figure it out and score a ton of points. That's a feeling I haven't had about A&M in a while regardless of the opponent.

Hoping we come out guns blazing on Saturday.

I hope for a balanced attack that finishes drives all while allowing the defense to rest.

They are the exact same team as last season. Proceed with caution.
