This week Utah faces a USC team who has clearly adjusted well to their new head coach, although as the stats below will make clear, the improvement has been mostly on the offense, not the defense, which is still struggling. It hasn’t mattered, as the offense is doing so well most teams cannot keep up, but USC has had a couple of close calls, including barely beating Oregon State 17-14, despite forcing four turnovers.

Again, what they lost from last year is no longer as important as it was early in the season. As such, I will just point out the most important losses, rather than every contributor.


Here are the big losses from last year on offense.
