Live Blog: NCAA Football – Arkansas State at No. 8 USC

Cody Kessler and USC open the season against Arkansas State tonight.

With Stanford’s loss and Oregon’s defense looking like a sieve, is it time to USC to make a statement. Will they make that statement all over Arkansas State? Almost certainly.

Cody Kessler is the big name QB this year for a reason. Steve Sarkasian is just glad football season’s started so everyone can forget about his drunken rants in the offseason.

This is a money game for Arkansas State, but make no mistake, the Red Wolves can play offense. Last year they averaged 476.5 yards per game. Senior QB Fredi Knighton threw for 3,277 yards and 24 touchdowns last season with just seven picks and two of his favorite targets, Tres Houston and Dijon Paschal are back so don’t be surprised if this one is close for a while.

The game is on the PAC 12 Network at 11 p.m. Stay up late with me and watch it.
