4th Q - USC v SJSU / final.

Well, the game was over a long time ago, but they've sent in the back-up quarterback - who would have started if he hadn't fractured his fibula three weeks ago - to mop up and get some field time. It's just not fair for opponents, since Aaron Corp is actually better prepared, having been on the sidelines for 2 years at USC already. Just one series and he's 4 for 4, 45 yards and a touchdown.

Oh yeah, I think the team is ready to play in the horseshoe, with Ohio State. Barkley, in his first start, had a 79% completion rate with 233 yards total in passing. The offense compiled 620 total yards for the game, which says quite a lot about the offensive line; perhaps on of the best in the entire country, actually.

And the defense isn't too shabby, either. They locked up SJSU for 115 total yards with only 4 rushing yards, and sacked the quarterback 5 times.

So was Ohio State caught overlooking Navy? Talk about lucky to get away with a win. That would have been more embarrassing than Michigan losing two years ago to Appalachian State, given the expectations of Ohio State. This is nearly the same as last year, when Ohio State struggled against Ohio University, with only a 20 yard margin of offense separating the two teams, and in fact, down 12-14 going into the fourth quarter before scoring 14 points to win 26-14.

No doubt, Ohio State is concerned about next week's game with USC.
