While some were lamenting how porous the USC run defense was against Illinois in the 34-32 loss, it was the play of the secondary that needs to be focused on.
Granted, it is incredibly difficult to be without arguably the best safety in college football in Kamari Ramsey. This was always going to make life difficult, and more importantly, it would put others in a position that they would otherwise not have been in, meaning that the rotation and position are far from a deal compared to when everyone is fully healthy.
That can be said nearly every week, though, and for every team.
