I am hoping that the team will continue this upward momentum.  Keep working hard,  keep improving and keep winning.  oh stay healthy as well.

I hope Hoganʻs ankle is alright.

Am I amazed by this amazing performance?  You betcha!  Never expected to win by 10.  The team demonstrated a lot of heart.  Love it  :-\

Will Ferrell led USC out of the tunnel.  Seems somewhat apropos given that they are a joke of a team.

Can we assume it's not a high ankle sprain (what the announcers were saying)?

What a heartening game. I don't know how good SC's D-Line is but I would think they're probably better than UCF or Northwestern.

Canʻt help but to wonder where was this team two weeks ago against Northwestern.  I guess,  no sense in looking back and pondering on the what ifs.

Win was completely earned. SC defense not necessarily better than NW...but they have some good players, for sure.

Possibly could be a mild high ankle sprain. But you'd be surprised how bendy young ankles can be.

After the last two weeks I don't know how you would predict a performance like this, but I'm sure glad it happened.

So, our only loss was to a ranked team.  We're okay.  Just gotta keep winning.

All day long, all I heard was that this was the game that would put Kessler at the top of the Voldemort list. Wow.

The halftime yak was how great Kessler was, no mention of Hogan.  We were easing and I would call the abs equal at that point.

Being in LA, the local ABC channel is in on the postgame presser right now. Oh boy it is fun to watch Sark squirm.

Did anyone notice Haden in the sidelines?

Also, how's Josh Rosen doing?

Never have I been so happy to eat a ton of crow.  Two weeks ago I was among those calling for a change in the coaching staff to improve play calling.  (Note, I never called for Shaw to be removed, as I believe he has great strengths as a coach in recruiting, leadership role modeling, and staff management; I just questioned whether the play calling would best be handled by others).  But I honestly cannot criticize any of the play calling or execution today.  First day with a runner going over 100 yards in, well, forever.  Solid pass protection, efficient management and big plays in critical situations by Hogan.  Great performance, and suddenly that Northwestern game looks more like an aberration.  Here is hoping we don't have a brobdingnagian let-down next week, and can build on this performance. 

More crow, please.

That might be the most satisfying win since the Rose Bowl. Goddamn that was great.

BYU up 10-3 with 7 mins left in first half.  Rosen has thrown for 23 yards, 3 for 11 with two INTs.  This is a perfect night, mein Schadenfreude.

Good for you. I'm looking forward to — but not holding my breath for — words from a couple of others.
