USC is currently in the conversation to be one of the top four teams in the nation, which may thus translate into a spot within a much-coveted playoff spot. Gifted with some world class talent, that which is ready to pick apart defenses and stop the opposing team’s offense, USC is looking poised to be one of the best teams in the nation once again.
The USC playoff hopes rest on the arm of Cody Kessler. It was only last season that Kessler posted one of the most efficient seasons of the quarterback position in the nation. The talent is stocked on the offensive side of the ball for the young signal caller. With a potent offense under his control and a year under his belt, there seems to be no reason why fans of USC have any reason to doubt their legitimacy during this season.
Picking USC to be a contender could be premature since the season has yet to start. The program needs to have its act together. They can at times be erratic when they lose games they should win, and when they win games they should lose. However, the picture for USC’s season will become clear when they play Stanford, Notre Dame, Oregon, and UCLA.
When it comes to college football, it seems as there is always interesting stories around every corner of every football program in the NCAA. Fans of the sport, like Gene Rinderknecht, are thrilled to get another season underway. With last year being the inaugural season of the College Football Playoffs, this year will be a great year to continue the new, exciting tradition.
