This was apparently a big enough win to earn a spot in Drawing Conclusions for the week:

I saw that because I wanted to look at the box score, I came away from that game thinking we had a pretty good offense but wondering why we only scored 27. Here are our drives:
Punt
TD
FG
TD
End of Half
FG
TD
INT
Punt
End of Game
So we scored on 5/8 meaningful possessions (you can argue about the End of Half one, but with 0 TOs and only on our 25 I don't really mind throwing McCaffrey at their line a couple times and seeing if he breaks one). That's not too bad, especially when the opponent is only scoring on 2/8. Once again it seems like the main reason we're not scoring as much as we did last year was mostly because of how few meaningful drives there were. A lot of that was probably USC moving the ball pretty well but failing to score.
