USC Morning Buzz: The More Things Change . . .

I mentioned USC’s crazy schedule from 1964 yesterday as an example of how football has already emulated the new Big Ten schedule.

This reminded me that 1962 also featured a wild stretch:

Game 2: at SMU

Game 3: at Iowa

Game 4: Cal at Coliseum

Game 5: at Illinois

Imagine this was a volunteer schedule. Not some required to make $100 million. USC also played Wisconsin that year in the Rose Bowl.

  • The only thing missing from Monday’s announcement that USC was building a new soccer stadium was Coach Bohn bellowing a statement.
  • Tavita Pritchard, the QB when Stanford pulled off one of college football’s biggest upsets over USC in 2007, is the quarterbacks coach with the Washington Commanders.

He now has to wear USC colors.

“I went out there for the first practice, saw myself on film and I was like: ‘I can’t do this. I need a black [jacket],” Pritchard told the Washington Post.

USC tailback Willie Brown goes for yardage against Illinois in 1962.

  1. White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre violated the Hatch Act, the federal law limiting certain political activities of federal employees to prevent influencing elections, one government watchdog has found.

    “Unfortunately, we have seen mega MAGA Republican officials who don’t believe in the rule of law. They refuse to accept the results of free and fair elections and they fan the flames of political violence through what they praise and what they refuse to condemn.” she said.

    The agency’s letter described Jean-Pierre’s comments as “an inappropriate attempt to influence the vote,” but added that it “”decided to close this matter without further action.”

    Of course there’s no further action. One set of rules for the Left, another for the Right.

  3. Scooter,

    Are there any plans to help grow in sports at USC? Is SC planning to get a softball team going? If so, where would they put the stadium? If SC takes over Felix Chevorlet, they could put the field there.

  4. The game against Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl is listed as a W but most would say USC completely collapsed in the 4th quarter and Wisconsin should have won.

    1. It WAS 42-14 SC at beginning of the 4th quarter, so Troy deserved to win
      But SC had a couple of botched plays that suddenly made it 42-37, 23 straight point having been scored by the Badgers. Beathard tried to run the clock out but SC still had to punt with a few seconds to go, and there was no time left for Wisconsin to go for a Hail Mary

  6. So the coach can’t wear the color of his employer because they remind him of the team that used to beat his team thoroughly except for one game that they won? That’s worth writing about?

    The conspiracy people are truly emotional for an idiot who runs the White House and the buffoon who lost to that idiot. Fascinating.
