Lincoln Riley made news at Big Ten media days when he talked about USC’s view of the LSU game, and how much of an effort was made to actually back out of the game. We have the audio and video below in a tweet, but before you watch the clip (if you haven’t seen it already), let’s get the obvious point out of the way: You can imagine that LSU fans would have a field day with this. More specifically, you can imagine that LSU folks would be skeptical of what Lincoln Riley did say. Riley’s words just don’t resonate or sound convincing to people outside USC. That’s what happens when a coach comes off a five-loss season with Caleb Williams as his starting quarterback.
The “feeding frenzy” feel to USC football is real. There is a sense that there’s blood in the water. It’s up to the Trojans to significantly change the conversation, and the LSU game is their first huge chance to do something about that. Here’s the clip below of Riley commenting on the LSU game:
