Lincoln Riley is taking absolutely nothing for granted heading into USC’s huge Big Ten opener versus Michigan on Saturday. Via Wolverines Wire, Riley talked about the Michigan defense days before Riley engages in a chess match with the Maize and Blue:
There’s NFL players all over the place, and a lot of guys that were part of winning a national championship last year. There’s a lot of good players, a lot of good coaches at that place. Again, everybody — we live it every year. It’s not anything new. You understand it. But I mean, everybody wants to write the story after a couple games in the season for everyone, and it’s just a long season, man. That’s a good football team that we have a lot of respect for, and to have anything less would be a mistake on our part.
USC faces Michigan Saturday in Ann Arbor at 3:30 p.m. Eastern time, 12:30 Pacific, on CBS.
