Around SBN: College Football Preseason Top 25 Rankings

The article describes the evolution of U.S.C.'s offense since 2001 and the marginalization of Norm Chow. Pete Caroll was unhappy with the offense after the 6–6 campaign in 2001 so he overhauled the run blocking schemes. In the process, he got further and further away from Chow's offense.

U.S.C. hasn't been as dominant since Chow left. This helps explain why Chow left.

I read that...

And yes, USC hasn’t been as dominant since Chow left.

When Meyer bolted, Chow was my dream pick, but now I’ve realized he probably doesn’t have the mentality to be a HC.

I think the Trojans will take a step back this season. If they manage only one or two losses, then I think it’ll cement Caroll’s legacy as the best coach currently. Even better than Meyer.
