With Caleb Williams back coming off a Heisman Trophy-winning season, the Trojans are in a great position to win 10 or more games this season.
On today’s episode of Locked On Pac-12, I’m joined by “Locked On USC” host Marc Kulkin.
We discuss whether USC can break through and make the College Football Playoff in their last year as a member of the Pac-12.
We also lay out our record predictions for the 2023 season as USC seeks to return to the Pac-12 title game. Given Lincoln Riley’s track record, winning at least 10 games seems more than feasible.
