Oregon pulled the curtain back again, and the room has stopped debating Riley and started eulogizing him.
What happened
USC entered the week undefeated and left it 4-1, undone 27-41 by Oregon at home. The turning point was the moment the game stopped feeling competitive and the crowd's attention shifted from the field to the sideline, where Lincoln Riley has become the entire story. One fan called him "the saddest piece of shit coach I've ever laid my eyes on." Another was "beyond done and disgusted," convinced he "can't coach and can't develop a genuine culture." Misery held at 85, which is its own kind of answer.
