I think we can hold them to low 20s

based on the pattern of limiting our last three opponents to 25-30 points below their season average. USC's average is 45.5.

I get that the plucky walk-on had a great game last week, but I think USC losing their top two running backs from the first half of the season is a bigger factor than some are acknowledging.
