Ah Wofford


Finally, a breather and a chance to sit back and watch our up coming stars play. Yeah I know it was closer than anticipated last time we took the field, but that was good ole coach Nix ball. You know the guy who showed Tebow and D-Mac to the Heisman podium last year. EJ has seen this offense several times before and will be ready.
I am so tired about reading stuff on the option.
In fact I didn’t know we were playing Wofford this week. All I heard was option this, option that, I damn near googled option to see what their Mascot looked like. I think its well noted we respect the option and have given Wofford respect more so than in the past. This is exactly why I think we will blow them out of the water and crush the option. That and this week E. Cook will be playing D. Stewart's postion, bringing him closer to the line to make tackles. Its one of the best defenses in the nation going up against the best rush attack in D-2 or w/e football bowl subdivision for teams that whip Michigan’s ass at home.

Off the mark Anyone who thinks the Pac 10 is good, you are off you Rocker. Stat of the week: The Pac 10 is 0-5 this season against the Mountain West Conference!

Back on Track where was I? Oh yeah, basically it comes down to physics. We are bigger, stronger, and faster than the Wofford Lines. Our D-line should get penetration faster than Gray in the Playboy Mansion. On the O-line, we should never have to worry about our left side again. King is starting at Left Tackle and they moved Jamon over to left guard. With these two colossal creatures anchoring the left end we should able to run there all day.

On offense we will get to see the future RBs and WRs as Spurrier tells us the young guys will get a ton of action. Baker and Maddox will get a chance to make a case for the #1 RB spot (and next week as well). The coaching staff is really looking forward to one of these guys stepping up to be the homerun threat we have been seeking. At WR, we will see a lot of Jason Barnes and Joe Hills. I think if Barnes can get a couple of balls thrown his way we could be talking flash backs of Sidney Rice. Smelley will QB the majority of the game and should be our starter for the remainder of the year (Unless Garica gets everything down pat). He has a completion percentage in the 60’s, avgs just under 200yds a game (5th in the SEC) with 5tds to 3 ints. Garcia will more than likely get some clean up work and or a few run plays sprinkled in.

Final score USC 44 Wofford 6

Yeah, I think we take this game easily. EJ's guys have been disciplined as hell lately, so don't expect them to get bamboozled by the option. On the flip side, Wofford's defense has been having problems, so if Smelley can protect the ball, we should be able to shred them for 40+.
