The USC Trojans are in Corvallis, Oregon tonight to face the Oregon State Beavers. Corvallis has been a tough place to play for the Trojans at times over the years and for various reasons, the Beavers have found a way to upset USC at different moments. In order to make life a bit more difficult for USC at Oregon State, the Beavers put their band all the way in the nosebleeds.

Check it out.

The tweet caught the attention of former USC legendary quarterback Matt Leinart. Check out his response to the Trojans’ band being placed all the way up in the nosebleeds.

USC is hoping they can silence all of the Oregon State fans in Corvallis tonight with their high-octane offensive attack. The Trojans have one of the most explosive offenses in all of college football the first few weeks. Their head coach, Lincoln Riley, has once again established himself as one of the premiere offensive minds in the country.

USC has been struggling for much of the night on Saturday night

The Trojans have struggled for much of the night on Saturday night. The Oregon State Beaver defense has given Caleb Williams and the USC wide receivers plenty of problems. USC star quarterback Caleb Williams has only completed nine of 23 pass attempts thus far for 113 passing yards, while tossing no touchdowns and no interceptions.

At the end of the third quarter, the Oregon State was in front of USC 7-3. It’s a really impressive performance by the Beaver defense, considering the Trojans were averaging 50.7 points per game coming into Saturday night’s matchup. It’s by far the stiffest test USC has faced thus far and it’s not even close. We’ll have to see how the fourth quarter plays out in Saturday night’s matchup. Weird things have happened in Corvallis over the years in this rivalry and tonight’s game was just another example of that.
