The first punch cut through the air unobstructed, so JuJu Smith-Schuster reared back and launched another.

USC had been stewing since the start of Tuesday’s practice. Much of the energy was productive. But now it was convulsing into hostility.

A gratuitous celebration after a pass breakup had angered Smith-Schuster, USC’s No. 1 receiver. Words were exchanged. Frustration boiled. Smith-Schuster and safety Ykili Ross began to scuffle, and much of the defense joined.

After taking a few swings, Smith-Schuster and another player locked and hurled themselves at the turf. A third player was tossed nearby.

Smith-Schuster got up, separated himself and then kicked the football toward the simmering scrum. Then he began walking off the field.

He marched to the wall of the practice facility and sat there, slumped. Cornerback Adoree’ Jackson scurried over to settle him down. Coach Clay Helton and offensive coordinator Tee Martin talked to him, and Smith-Schuster eventually rejoined the team, though he did not play for the rest of the session.

Here was USC, the rumblings of a 52-6 loss to Alabama still echoing into the next week.

This is what happens when you allow the score to become more important than the game. There is a lot that USC can take away from that game, but they have to allow themselves to see those things.

If you see the video you would roll laughing. He was talking trash like the pit bull above and then at the end he looked like a whipped dog admitting that they weren't ready to play the SEC.

I'll have to find it and add it to my collection of Snoop Dog videos. That will bring the total to one. :)

Is it me or does Clay Helton seem like he's over his head having that job???

It's not just you. Don't get me wrong. Helton seems like a decent guy, but he's not the coach to turn this program around. He reminds me of Derek Dooley at Tennessee: thrown into a tough situation, asked to work a miracle, and ends up realizing that the job is way too big for him.

It's not just a Snoop Dogg rant. It's the typical southern California perception and attitude towards the south in general. Been to SC numerous times and some will engage in conversation with an open mind but most look at you with a drawn back sneer when they hear the accent. It's just the difference in culture and attitude between the two. I don't understand a lot of what I see and hear when I visit the Santa Monica Pier but I don't look down on them as a result.

To each his own.
