Trojans rack up 755 yards in rout — yet doubts remain

USC RECEIVER Ja'Kobi Lane reaches out to haul in a touchdown pass during the first quarter against Georgia Southern at the Coliseum on Saturday.

Seven-hundred fifty-five yards is a lot of yards.

That’s how much USC gained during its 59-20 victory over Georgia Southern on Saturday.

One-hundred thirty-two points is a lot of points.

That’s how much USC has scored in its two games this season, including its blowout victory over Missouri State the week before.

If you want to believe the Trojans are better than they were in their previous two seasons, there are developments that could further convince you that you're right. If you want to believe Lincoln Riley has elevated his team from mediocrity, there are statistics you could cite to support your observations.

There is also evidence to the contrary, of course.

The two games USC has played this season were more or less Rorschach tests.

The only indisputable truth to emerge was that Trojans receivers Makai Lemon and Ja'Kobi Lane would be serious problems for every one of their opponents.

Everything else remained up for debate.
