5 defensive keys for USC vs. Fresno State

One could simply say #USC’s defense has to improve across the board, but here are a few points of emphasis for the Fresno State game.

The USC Trojans are hosting the Fresno State Bulldogs this weekend. We have already examined the history of this series, especially the recent games they have played against one another.

We also examined 10 Bulldogs players to watch, and the Trojans are going to have their hands full against a very good Fresno State team.

The Bulldogs came up just short against Oregon State last weekend, and USC is off to a hot 2-0 start.

With a high-flying matchup on tap, here are five defensive keys as USC hosts Fresno State in a late-night game at the Los Angeles Coliseum. Temperatures will be comfortable for this game, unlike the Rice opener. Expect a packed house for this one.
