Riley is 12-12 in the last 24 games. The Trojans have blown fourth-quarter leads in each of their five losses this season.

Riley is correct. USC isn’t getting outclassed. USC isn’t less talented than its opponents. USC is plainly being out-coached. The poor game plan from Lincoln Riley to not establish the run on the second-to-last ranked run defense in the conference is, kindly put, bewildering. It does, however, follow the theme Riley has set for the Trojan offense as they entered the contest with the lowest run rate in the FBS on the road with 31 percent.
