“Coming out of the bye,” @USC_Athletics said, “the Trojans have 7 games remaining this season, starting with Saturday’s showdown against undefeated Colorado.”
Just in case, to make sure the crowd assembled around him didn’t think he miscounted, Daniels added a minute later, “I feel really ready for the next eight weeks.”
And Clay Helton, in discussing Daniels having rested his arm during the week off, asserted that “we have eight games here. This will probably be the most balls he’s thrown in his entire life in a season.”
Daniels and Helton, the two men under the most pressure Saturday for USC, didn’t need to say more than that to make their point about the expectation against the Buffaloes, ranked No.
