Lane Kiffin doesn't get many encore performances. He's kind of like a suicide bomber in some ways. So it was with much anticipation that a nation waited to see just how many two-point conversions the USC Trojans would attempt this year, Kiffin's second on the job.
USC Vs. Minnesota: So This Is What Year Two Of Lane Kiffin Looks Like
The answer is many.
Two so far, to be exact, plus a fourth-down conversion attempt while up by 16 points against the Minnesota Golden Gophers, which resulted in the ball whistling over Matt Barkley's head. There doesn't appear to be any particular pattern to it, but it would make a lot more sense if it worked. The whole thing seems to be an attempt to make the other coach's two-point conversion decision card work really hard.
The entire strategy appears to be throwing the ball to wide receiver Robert Woods, who’s already set the school record for catches in a single game with 17 for 169 yards, which is really saying something when you remember USC’s had a lot of coaches besides Lane Kiffin. Oh, and Woods broke a punt return for 34 yards.
Seriously, 19-10 in the fourth quarter? What is 19-10?
