USC coach Lincoln Riley is encouraged by the offensive line's progress so far this season despite its struggles against Michigan's defensive front.
The left tackle was cramping. The right guard was benched. The new right tackle was playing his first meaningful snaps, while the new right guard had played only a handful. All the while, 110,000 hostile fans roared with every missed block or botched assignment against the nation’s most fearsome defensive front featuring two top-15 NFL draft prospects on the interior. “That’s as tough as it gets,” USC coach Lincoln Riley said Tuesday.
And while Raymond struggled, he earned respect from teammates for taking over Mason Murphy's spot when Murphy moved to left tackle in place of Paige. “That’s a hell of a position to be thrown into,” quarterback Miller Moss said. “I texted him the night after the game that I was proud of him and the way he stepped up for the team. I think it was really selfless.
