I watched the game intently and watched the play in the trenches cause thats where the games are won....period.
Fact: Vandys OL sucked badly and caused them to lose.
Fact: USC faced a very fired up Vandy team on the road on a thurs night national tv game.
Fact: USCs OL was good enough to keep pass rush from sacking qb most of the time and at times opened huge holes for Latty...but in second half the USC OL looked very tired.
Fact: USCs DL is pretty stout and will win them some games if they can keep qb healthy. Option read is going to get that kid killed.
Fact: Because of USCs defense...Vandy had to use finesse offense and finally gave up trying to run the ball with Stacey...he was getting beat up at times.
Opinion: USC will be decent..8-4 is about right and if Latty improves and qb isnt dead...9-3 could happen.

South Carolina has a great rush defense and a very average pass defense. Arkansas will exploit that often, IMHO. Lattimore looked awesome, as usual, and the QB Shaw has some guts. Not the most talented arm in the world, but he is a gamer and took some punishment to make plays and help his team win the game. He's not going to be able to do that against bigger defenses though, and somebody like Jarvis Jones will probably be his undoing.
I think South Carolina still finishes in the top 25 and will win a mid-tier bowl game, but they don't look like a top 10 team right now, IMHO.
