If you have DirecTV, you know that Disney blacked out ABC and ESPN just prior to the LSU game. The channels are still of the air.

You could … Continue reading If It’s Friday, It’s Time For A USC Notes Column

There was a lot of talk in the spring about defensive lineman Elijah Hughes, who apparently did not play on Sunday. It’s also curious why Raesjon Davis did not transfer somewhere else since he appears to be a second-tier player right now and did not play according to the official game stats.
