Record as a starter at USC, 21 games, 16-5 overall. 11-1 at home
Against Big Ten teams, 10-2 overall. 6-0 at home. Six and oh.
One of the keys Saturday will be to establish a running game. Maiava and Riley with a running game will have an easy time with play calls. Things will get funky if we have to rely on Maiava with an ineffective running game. 150 yards for the game with a 4-5 ypc and we can win this thing.
Maiava is a good kid that hasn’t brought us any problems or embarrassments. He has some big games left this season to cement his legacy. He might not be as dynamic as our other #14 QB but if he can pull out some big wins, maybe just maybe he will be remembered.
