USC-UCLA: My Only Problem with the Way It Ended
Published on: 1st December, 2009
I didn’t have a problem with USC coming out for the last minute of the game and taking a knee. Okay, so maybe the coaching staff forgot that UCLA had three timeouts remaining. The staff has forgotten a lot of things this year, like how to get the defense ready to ...USC-UCLA: Has the Rivalry Lost Its Luster?
Published on: 27th November, 2009
For USC and UCLA fans, this year’s rivalry game is what it is—the biggest game on the schedule. No matter if the teams are 11-0 or 0-11, the school that loses must live with that for an entire year. It’s one thing to live with when your rival is across the ...Pete Carroll-Jim Harbaugh: What’s the Deal with this Pac-10 Feud?
Published on: 17th November, 2009
Well, the deal, Peter, is the scoreboard. If you’re rankled over a two-point conversion attempt with the score 48-21, maybe you should ask your defense what its deal is. How come they stopped the two-point conversion but managed to give up another touchdown? While you’re at it, ask Rocky Seto, Ken ...USC: For Pete’s Sake, What’s Next?
Published on: 15th November, 2009
‘The bigger they are, the harder they fall,” as the quote goes. And USC has certainly fallen with a thud. How can one of the most superlative stretches in the Trojans’ storied history end in such devastation? It’s one thing to have an off season and lose three or four games. But ...USC and Michigan: A Tale of Two QBs, A Tale of Two Programs
Published on: 15th November, 2009
They were both powerhouses in their respective conferences. They last met in the 2007 Rose Bowl. USC beat Michigan 32-18. Lloyd Carr would coach the Wolverines one more season, winning the Capital One Bowl, 41-35 over the former national champion, Florida. Carr then turned the reins over Rich Rodriguez, the former West ...USC vs. Stanford: Are the Cardinal Too High to Fly?
Published on: 12th November, 2009
It seems to happen every year in the Pac-10. One team gets a huge upset win over a highly-ranked foe but then loses its next game. They are riding such an emotional high that they cannot get grounded in time to take care of business. It has already happened several times ...The Pac-10: The Changing of the Guard
Published on: 10th November, 2009
Now that this decade is drawing to a close, it seems like the leadership of the Pac-10 is undergoing a significant change. Since 2000, three names have dominated Pac-10 football: Pete Carroll, Jeff Tedford, and Mike Belotti. But now new names are forging ahead and may possibly overtake the Old Guard ...Stanford Poses a Big Concern for USC
Published on: 8th November, 2009
If today’s events hold true to form next Saturday, USC is likely to suffer its third loss of this season. Stanford laid 51 points on Oregon, the No. 8 team in the nation, in driving to a 51-42 upset victory. Meanwhile, USC’s lethargic offense, which could only manage 20 points in ...USC: Worst Losses in Trojan Football History
Published on: 6th November, 2009
You know the old saying: it hardly ever rains in Southern California, but when it does rain, it pours. The same might be said of this year’s edition of the USC Trojans. After seven years of dominance over Pac-10 foes, the Trojans finally caved in at Oregon. And I mean they ...USC-Oregon: Trojans Rebuilding Not Reloading
Published on: 1st November, 2009
There! It’s official. By the count of 47-20, the votes are in. USC is rebuilding this year not reloading like all of the media hype had suggested. Surprised! I’m not. Back in late August I predicted that USC would lose two or three games this year. I thought Oregon would be ...Featured Sponsors
