USC's buyout question grows louder after a flat loss at Wisconsin

USC lost 24-7 at Wisconsin and the pressure over Lincoln Riley's buyout is back in the debate; the coach is 41-20 in his fifth season, is 5-15 against top-25 opponents and his three Big Ten wins came against teams with a combined 3-10.

O Wisconsin venceu o USC por 24 a 7 na noite deste sábado, e os Trojans, 16º colocados, deixaram Madison já com duas derrotas e com a parte mais difícil da tabela da Big Ten ainda pela frente.

O ataque não produziu quase nada na volta de uma semana de folga. O USC terminou com menos 17 jardas corridas em 25 carregadas, e Jayden Maiava sofreu dois sacks no caminho. O quarterback completou 31 de 50 passes para 258 jardas, com um touchdown e duas interceptações, sem nenhuma ajuda do jogo terrestre.

Ohio State, Indiana e UCLA ocupam três dos últimos quatro jogos. Riley tem 41-20 na quinta temporada, e outra ausência dos playoffs se aproxima. Suas três vitórias na Big Ten nesta temporada foram contra equipes com 3-10 somados na conferência, e ele tem 5-15 contra adversários do top-25 no USC.

É por isso que a conversa sobre a multa rescisória voltou. O contrato de Riley é privado, mas o repórter Matt Zenitz noticiou um valor em torno de US$ 70 milhões. A questão é a partir de que ponto mantê-lo custa mais do que pagá-lo para sair.

No meio do ano ele elevou a régua. “As expectativas não mudaram, mas acho que a nossa oportunidade de aproveitar isso e (vencer) é, para mim, mais real agora do que provavelmente foi nos primeiros anos”, disse ele então, descrevendo um alinhamento e um embalo que recrutas, jogadores e torcedores supostamente sentiam.

A derrota por 41-27 para o Oregon no mês passado foi o alerta; o sábado foi pior, contra um Wisconsin que está longe do topo da conferência. O que vem agora é uma viagem a Columbus, depois Indiana, antes do fim de semana de rivalidades.
