@DannyParkins CW not beating the PAC had everything to w/ USCs D. He won in spite of it. Being a product of the Riley system is a good thing. 3 starters from the Riley system who are doing great with physical limitations. CW has none. You cant seriously believe JF is a better QB

@getnickwright Wait so now you’re playing the efficiency card? So why doesn’t this apply for MJ? He won 6 in 13 healthy years. LBJ is chasing 5 in year 20. Kobe won 5 in within 13. This is what you guys do, you pick the argument that fits your narrative.

On the GOAT/RINGZZZ discussion, we can look at pace: Brady played 22 years as a starter, Mahomes is at 6. SB wins: Brady 7/22 32% Mahomes 2/6 33% or 3/6 50% SB Apps: Brady 10/22 45% Mahomes 3/6 50% CCG Apps: Brady 14/22 64% Mahomes 6/6 100% Win or lose, he’s ahead of pace.

@getnickwright used opposite argument for Pat that he uses for LBJ. Argument for MJ is hes accomplished more in less time in a sport youve said places more emphasis on winning. Brady has Brons longevity in a more injury prone sport & l has more titles than MJ & beat Mahomes ✌️

@getnickwright At the end of the day I just see Brock Purdy crushing everyone’s dreams of seeing Swift and Kelce up there celebrating. It’s just their year and they are the better team. You know you wanted the Lions, Nick.

In two weeks, the Chiefs will have completed the best 5 year stretch in NFL history, and would have done it this year by going thru FOUR different quarterbacks ALL OF WHOM finished higher in the MVP voting than Patrick Mahomes.

@AndrewGogolin Why? First matchup was great and now you get the revenge story line but with a much better QB on the other side. It’s either the birth of a new super star or the continuation of the newest dynasty

Niners vs Chiefs SB might cut viewership by like 30% lmao

@samantailv2 If the Lions win they’re not beating the Chiefs. And this is a much different Niner team and rematches are always fun. Especially considering how close the last one was… and that was with Jimmy G at QB

@sammy______G lol Kobe did this in 2000 in game 6 after making both free throws to essentially put the Pacers away.

I’m Hollywood

@DoubleVodkaDon YOU AND ME BOTH! 🥳 that fumble recover was everything!

ARIZONA AND THE OVER!!!! IM SO FUCKING BACK!!!!

@akishjr @ColinCowherd SC historically owns Big10. Grinch was the problem. Nothing else. They have the talents across the board and now they’ll have DC and staff to get them there. Don’t forget that when USC is good it’s the most attractive destination for recruits. Not even mentioning most draft picks

@ColinCowherd Lol USC about to get owned by the big 10. 8-4 next year

Miller Moss dealing tonight. Poised. Accurate. Sees the field. Really impressed. Throwing dimes to true freshman.

@InsideUSC Well said. Love the take on Moss. And let’s not act like he’s some walk-on Cinderella story. Recruited by Bama, Oregon, Tenn, Michigan & PSU. 2 of the 4 teams in the playoffs this year have a starter who was with the program out of HS,

Here's some quick thoughts on the Holiday Bowl and how it applies to next season for USC insideusc.blog/2023/12/28/dis…

@NYrangersNole @gatorsszn Bama beat 4 top 25 teams to FSUs 3s. FSUs best W (LSU) is Alabamas 3rd best W. As an SC fan, given our D and the fact that 50% of the roster was gone, we had no business comfortably beating the ACC runner ups. Shows how and that conf was.

@gatorsszn FSU gave up 2 FGs, usc gave up 28 and Louisville averages 30ppg. I’ll leave this here for ya…

Miller Moss had 4 TD’s vs Louisville… in the first half. FSU’s QB didn’t throw for one all game. USC also had 28 points in the first half. FSU had 16 for the whole game. There’s levels to this

@OriginalRichSC Everyone who said “it’s a talent issue,” didn’t realize almost everyone in C-USA played better D against Tulane. Scheme, player development, & mentality. We saw a more discipline team play with that dawg in them. I also think Riley ran a real O w/o relying so much Caleb

USC fans: hopefully tonight is the beginning of a big turnaround. New season, new DC, new defensive staff, and hopefully a more physical mentality and identity that will match and even elevate Lincoln Riley's masterful offensive prowess. Thrilled with such a positive, fun win!

A short handed USC defense played better than it had all year (outside of the ND game). Shows you how awful Grinches scheme was. Putting talented guys in gimmicky schemes takes away from the reason you recruited them.

@AlokPattani @notthefakeSVP @StanfordSteve82 I pushed. Can’t believe he put that back up instead of just running out the clock. Ridiculous

Bad Beat at end of Wizards-Warriors game (3 at buzzer to make Washington cover 11.5-pt spread), made even better by Steph and CP3 reaction on bench right after the shot! @notthefakeSVP @StanfordSteve82

@YvngOG__ Had them +8.5 on the live 🤦‍♂️

Damn Luka it’s bad enough yall going lose this game you missing free throws fuckin up my other ticket shit

@sportsguy85 @FirstTake @MadDogUnleashed @stephenasmith @RealJayWilliams Shaq was great at running the floor. Wilt was a foot taller than 99% of the league and managed to win 1 title with West and Baylor? Come on. The one guy close to his height (Russell) gave him nightmares and he wasn’t even 7 feet. And you wanna talk about Shaq??

@FirstTake @MadDogUnleashed @stephenasmith @RealJayWilliams Mad Dog is right about Kareem & most of all Wilt. Wilt would have kept running & Shaq would been sucking for air so bad the entire arena would have passed out lack of oxygen.

.@MadDogUnleashed says Shaq is the fifth best NBA center of all time 👀 @stephenasmith and @RealJayWilliams couldn't believe it 😮

@SurfCowboyXX @FirstTake @MadDogUnleashed @stephenasmith @RealJayWilliams So what? Even with the liability he dominated and won 4 chips and went through a lot of great big men in the west to get to the finals. And check the numbers, in big playoff games Shaq was clutch at the line, and never underperformed in big games.

@FirstTake @MadDogUnleashed @stephenasmith @RealJayWilliams Mad Dog is right about Hakeem, Kareem, and Wilt. For one reason-if you gave Hakeem and Kareem 20 freethrows, they're making 16+ of them. Shaq was a liability late in close games. And he never beat a great center in the Finals.

@ThtFranchiseGuy @ShotgunSpr @ChrisNTrevino He turned a laughing stock D in UCLA to top 10 in the country. With less talent than USC. Held SC to just 20 at the Coli. He can coach and recruit. Big hire!

@ShotgunSpr @ChrisNTrevino Why? That’s the best we can get?

BREAKING: #USC set to hire UCLA's D'Anton Lynn as new defensive coordinator @ChrisNTrevino with the story: 247sports.com/college/usc/ar…

@funakistats Perfect example of your track record helping you in this case. He’s set the bar so high for his ejections that the refs deem things like this mild. Whereas for Jokic any bit of arguing is over the top. League needs to fix that.

Draymond Green doesn’t even get a tech for his reaction (left), and Jokic gets a straight ejection (right). Make it make sense…

@JohnnyC__ @ShotgunSpr He means the talent is there. This was all scheme and guys being put in the wrong position.

@ShotgunSpr 132nd ranked Defense, it's ok to acknowledge that this team is indeed very far away

#USC DC D'Anton Lynn said in between stopping in on recruits, he's been trying to watch USC games to get caught up on his new roster. The first thing he has noticed is that the Trojans aren't that far away.
