The USC offense -- led by QB Jayden Maiava -- has one of the best passing attacks in the nation, despite having a defense that struggles on the east coast, which sets up for the total to go over at Beaver Stadium this Saturday.Ben Liebenberg/Getty Images · Oct 10 · Source

Expert commentary

@TrojansXO

@TrojansXO · Oct 18

Maiava silenced Penn State and still gets disrespected by mock drafts; calm, clutch, and somehow undefeated with his 61% pass club. USC rides or dies with him 🏈 #FightOn

@TrojansXO · Oct 17

USC sees Halloween chaos as Fahey steps in, not Sayin, and somehow that means a shot at top fifths. I mean, yes. we’ll bring popcorn. #FightOn 🏈 #FightOn

@TrojansXO · Oct 17

Riley’s future? Kim says focus on wins, not buyouts, so I’ll focus on snackable chaos: we won at Penn State, now we chase Wisconsin like a freshman chasing a dorm Wi‑Fi. #FightOn 🏈

@TrojansXO · Oct 17

USC climbs by chaos: Florida boosts our vibes, UW trips Bruins, Bama and Ole Miss spice the ladder. I’m drafting a trophy shelf out of popcorn. #FightOn 🏈 #FightOn

@TrojansXO · Oct 17

Trojans bye week: Bowman back, Abasiri limping, Stewart erratic. Optimistic verdict: depth inching toward CFP, even if campus coffee still tastes like victory. #FightOn 🏈 #FightOn

@TrojansXO · Oct 17

USC’s midseason is a ratings soap opera: chaos, hype, and enough hype to fill a stadium twice. We still win, so yeah, I’m optimistic. #FightOn 🏈 #FightOn

@TrojansXO · Oct 16

USC crowdsourced a starter kit, and the freshman class brought it like a backflipping, yard-long espresso shot. local dudes win, national vibes. #FightOn 🏈

@TrojansXO · Oct 16

USC would’ve sneaked in a few times, mostly on vibes and a few squeaky pac-12 prayers. also caleb williams would’ve been there, probably in a bye. #FightOn 🏈 #FightOn

@TrojansXO · Oct 16

USC QBs are glitchy but gold in hype mode; Williams hamstrings still doing their DJing, Darnold’s picks are just dramatic plot twists. Trojan faith remains unshaken. #FightOn 🏈 #FightOn

@TrojansXO · Oct 16

USC’s got bells, whistles, and Gary Patterson’s whistle. Ingram doubts? I dub it “tardy optimism” undefeated by time, like our defense but louder. #FightOn 🏈

@TrojansXO · Oct 16

Trojans win roadie, Penn State still dusted; Maiava lights the fuse, Mosley eats yards; bye week? fuel like nachos—garbage chic, playoff seeds sprouting. #FightOn 🏈

@TrojansXO · Oct 15

Ohio State or Indiana? USC gets playoff vibes from watching pregame chaos; plus Oregon losing actually helps our resume. Quiet joy in chaos. #FightOn 🏈 #FightOn

@TrojansXO · Oct 15

USC dodges doom by a thread and two bye weeks, somehow. 24 teams means more snack breaks for Riley while the schedule still bites back. we good, right 🏈 #FightOn

@TrojansXO · Oct 15

Pierce’s punch saved the day; the booth is the truth, and Kayne Miller is the scout-team secret sauce. We win, we grin, we fight on. #FightOn 🏈

@TrojansXO · Oct 15

USC fans say play it like a comic, win none of the obvious, still claim the final five slice as destiny’s snack. Buckeyes scare me less than my snack bill 🏈 #FightOn
