I can predict what opposing defenses will do. They will concentrate on stopping the run, load the box, and dare an unproven QB to throw the ball. Bama's got talented receivers, but the QB has to get them the ball. That's the weakest link. Not saying QB is weak in absolute terms, it is just the biggest question mark.One of the good thing about Bo is that we may see him lining up as WR time to time.... or motioning out from RB. We probably wont see that until later in the season when things are getting intense.
It's crazy we have all those type of playmakers and teams doesn't know how to game plan for all of those guys. We can pretty much focus them into man to man coverage several time or zone coverage that can be exploited. This year maybe Kiffin's the best of all time.
If I was USC's D-coord. I'd load the box, stop the run and dare Bama to throw. You may get scorched for 450 yards of passing, but maybe not. This strategy offers USC the best chance to win.
Of course, if Bama can run even with the USC D selling out to stop the run, then it is going to be a long day for the Trojans.
