One question going into the season was whether a team with 26 transfers would appreciate something like the Crosstown Rivalry? “It’s another game to me,” USC QB Caleb Williams said. “I’ve been in other big rivalry games so far in my career, so I’m just treating it like another game.” I suppose Williams is referring to last year’s Oklahoma-Texas and Oklahoma-Oklahoma State games.

The culprit again for the Trojans was … Continue reading USC-UCLA Morning Buzz: First Team To 60 Wins
Lincoln Riley gave an update on Eric Gentry and Mario Williams today, which sounded conservative. I suspect Gentry will play quite a bit. “They’re practicing. They’re progressing. It’s an inexact science,” he said. “We’re at Tuesday morning right now but we’re hopeful we’ll be able to rep some of them both in the game.” Here is George with Victory Bell in 1947.
