Stanford upset exposes USC problems

09:33 AM ET 09.16 | Lying flat today is Matt Barkley, tossed around in a backfield that became a dangerous place without injured center Khaled Holmes, leveled by poor communication with receivers that resulted in consecutive interceptions, the golden boy all bronzed. Lying next to him is Coach Lane Kiffin, who began the week by causing a silly distraction with the media and ended it overseeing a team that followed his lead by playing undisciplined and, well, distracted. Scattered along the edges of the canvas are a battered Trojans defense feeling most of the pain of the 10 scholarships removed by probation, and a kicking game that somehow, amazingly, does not have a field-goal kicker.

I would just like to take a moment and wish the top ranked Trojans a speedy recover.
The heavens are singing on this beautiful Sunday morn.

Colonel no one, at least not me, never said that " lack of scholarships would not be felt". Stanford is not really that bad of a team. Stanford has lost only two "regular" season games the last two year and both were to Oregon. Stanford QB isn't all that bad this year. Give Stanford some credit, they were ready for USC last night!!!

+1. The Cardinal may have run out of luck but they're still pretty good.

ESPiN commentators last night said "Barkley's Heisman hopes went up in smoke"
IMO that's classles. There is plenty of time for redemption.
