Regardless of who starts at quarterback, USC will go into the Virginia game with a scaled-down playbook.
Offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian said having fewer plays would make the game plan easier to digest for USC’s young quarterbacks and inexperienced offensive line.
“The key is for us not to boggle down,” Sarkisian said. “When we get into game-planning for a team, we don’t need a million plays. We need to have enough plays to where it can win us a football game, enough plays to where these guys can understand and go out and play really fast.”
Sarkisian said the coaches would devise a master game plan with slight variations based on who the quarterback is.
