Film breakdown: running what you know; USC conservative or not late in game?

Coming off the bye week, it would have been fair to ask South Carolina football players if they added something to the mix of their running game.

They were coming off the best rushing day of the season, and they were in line for more against Vanderbilt. While most outside a program expected something new, most inside the USC football facilities turned toward doing the same things better.

The calls that accounted for USC’s eight longest runs weren’t something new, or even something particularly fancy and advanced. Four came on sweeps, two on counters and two were zone read keepers by Jake Bentley.
