The start of November brought much of the same excitement as October for the USC football team. The Trojans turned in another impressive performance with a resounding victory over the visiting Oregon Ducks Saturday.

Pac-12 schedule needs to improve

After a vicious September, the Trojan football team was treated to a much friendlier October. Whether it was an easier schedule, a change at quarterback, a blitzing defense or a combination of all of these factors, the Trojans took care of business throughout this month.

Questions still linger for football despite win

The Trojan football team picked up a much-needed victory Saturday, with a workmanlike win over the Utah State Aggies. Although expected, it was encouraging to see the Trojans bounce back from the dejecting experience that took place in Arlington, Texas last week. It is infinitely better to enter next week’s matchup against Stanford with some […]

Opening up against the Alabama Crimson Tide, USC has a chance to see how they measure up with the best of the best. Twelve years ago, USC was in Alabama’s position. Coming off of a national […]

Trojans must try to build up again

After the 2005 USC football team lost the national championship to Texas in a stunning fashion, I was heartbroken. Then after a few days, I was fine. I had convinced myself that since it seemed USC contended for the national title every year under former head coach Pete Carroll, they would just win next year. […]

Spring practice is great for showcasing potentially new dynamic players as well as offering a glimpse of what the season ahead brings. This year, Clay Helton’s first […]
