    No way we should've lost the game. The last drive we had on offense was a double-edged sword. We were not running the ball well enough to move it and work the clock. Once we got into FG range Holtz had to decide if running clock was better than trying to score through the air, knowing the incomplete passes stop the clock leaving an additional 35-40 seconds for USC. If he throws the ball and we score he looks brilliant and no one complains but if not the complaints would come for leaving too much time on the clock. The bigger issue is our running game. There are times when you just gotta be able to run the ball and in that situation running the ball successfully either results in a TD or another first down which would've allowed us to run out the clock. Also we were 1/6 TDs in red zone. 2/6 we win and 3/6 we pull away. Our inability to run the ball (80 yds for game) hurt us in the red zone all day especially the last drive. Holtz's offense post Dixon has not been good on the ground but we have been able to throw for 400+ yds and score a bunch of points. Not so far this year - and we really need to be able to gain 150 yds or more per game on the ground. Just think how good we could be if JMar throws for 300 and we run for 150+.
    We really only need 7yds/g more to reach 150, we average 143.8

    grow up dude. you up 13 points and have a shutout going into 4th --Throw the ball and stop the clock? throw an INT? I field goal locks game up. So mr Hermandawg says throw the ball -- well we did and its a pick and we were inside their 20. what game were you watching?? love armchair coaches --especially when they have zero memory of final 10 minutes-- we up going into last minute and 2 tough plays beat us --end of story --

    you so smart--WOW --genius -- last week we did it and won on last play. This week we can score a TD and go up by 6 and give them a little more time-- they make the 2 big plays and run clock out and kick field goal and they lose by 5 NO WAIT-- their coach decides not to run clock out and score game winning TD instead!! come on man-- try to think before posting --

    Re: 100% on Holtz

    The problem was our WAAAAAY TOO CONSERVATIVE DEFENSE on their final drive. The FACT is- We pissed away IN ONLY 47 SECONDS what had been working for the preceding 3 hours! If USC's receivers could catch better they would have beaten us in less time than that.
    It will happen exactly the same way the next time we are in a close game against a P5 too. That was Holtz's MO five years ago and it still is today- "Great recruiter, great person, WAY TOO PASSIVE GAME MANAGER IN BIG GAMES and it bites him in the ass".

    I knew this was gonna happen. I knew it. I knew, in the first quarter, that something we were doing was working. I knew, without a shadow of a doubt, that there was a 1000% chance we would abandon it as soon as the game got tight.

The wins mentioned are 2-11 Illinois, 2-10 Ole Miss, ans 4-8 MSU at home. Holtz has a 6-6 Illinois win. 3/4 against bad teams, teams that couldnt even get a bowl through academic standing. The worst (record-wise) P5 team weve played since 2014 when we got our stuff together is 5-7 Texas Tech last season. Should we have won the one point losses the last two years? Hell yes. Hopefully chips fall to allow one more shot at it this year in a bowl game, if not we'll just have to give it a shot next year with LSU and MSU.
    This South Carolina game was BIGGER than any bowl game we'll play against another G5 this year. The time for Holtz to pull out all the stops was last Saturday.

    You're the kind of fan that I just don't understand. Everything moves to fast for you. As long as we have a plan to beat a P5 school 10 years down the road, you're satisfied. I'm certain that Jack Bicknell would still be our coach if you had your way.
