USC defensive finish Anthony Lucas is out for the season

An already skinny USC line of defense will probably be with out its most efficient rusher the remainder of the way in which, as defensive finish Anthony Lucas suffered a season-ending harm within the loss to Penn State, Lincoln Riley stated Tuesday.

Lucas underwent surgical procedure Tuesday morning to restore what Riley deemed to be “a lower extremity” harm.

Lucas left final Saturday’s sport early within the fourth quarter after slipping on a go rush. Lucas rolled into Penn State quarterback Drew Allar on the play and was known as for roughing the passer. Nevertheless it was Lucas who remained sitting on the sphere, surrounded by trainers who seemed to be tending to his ankle.

The loss is a devastating blow to a USC protection that was already struggling to stress opposing passers. Lucas led the Trojans with 12 pressures, 4 greater than some other USC defender.

“Hate it for Anthony because he’s really improved and had a really strong impact on our defense,” Riley stated. “But he’s in a good frame of mind, we’ll be excited to get him back next year and get him rolling and build on all the progress he made. And in the meantime, it’s gonna create an opportunity for some more guys to step up.”

The issue may be very few of these choices are confirmed. Sophomore Braylan Shelby is third on the staff in pressures (seven) and essentially the most skilled go rusher whose position ought to presumably improve. However Riley additionally pointed to freshmen reminiscent of Kameryn Fountain and Lorenzo Cowan as potential beneficiaries of Lucas’ absence.

“You rely on the development that’s been going on behind the scenes and the guys that we’ve recruited,” Riley stated. “Maybe there’s some guys you thought, well, maybe their role won’t be quite as much this year or maybe they redshirt, and now, all of a sudden they’re going to have that opportunity. All of us can point to our careers to guys who became phenomenal cornerstone type players of a program who got their first shot like this.”
