USC-UCLA Rivalry: A Forgotten Tradition?

A former USC player who spent time around the program at various times last season tells me he was shocked at how little mention of the importance of the Crosstown Rivalry was made during the week of the UCLA game.

“You wouldn’t know we were playing a huge rival,” the player said. “It wasn’t treated with importance.”

Is it a surprise given how little Lincoln Riley cares about USC’s tradition?

    1. I think Riley might be gone after this season, he’s not going to like a lot of things that are going to happen to him like others recruiting for him

  1. Rob Ryan has a larger than life personality. I hope he brings more USC former players back to practices and games. He has the ability to fire up players. Hopefully, that will help with the rivalry games.

  2. Riley only cares about his bi-weekly direct deposit payroll check of approximately $200,000.

    He maxes out FICA, 401K in first paycheck too.

    No mortgage and gets chauffeurred everywhere.

    Life is good and you csn tune out and ignore just about all criticism except from spouse and daughters.

    KAM: But won’t you be over-extended? I note that you also have a bid in for Greenland

    DON: That didn’t work out. Greenland wanted me to throw in Montana and Wyoming in exchange, and I just couldn’t do it

    1. KAM: A lot of us asked why the media went days without seeing or thinking about Joe Biden.

      DON: That’s because Senile Joe spent half his presidency in the basement or vacationing in Delaware while a bunch of staffers ran the country and propagandists like you turned a blind eye.

      DON: Days before November’s presidential election, Cardi B made a humiliating appearance at your rally.

      Moments after taking the stage, her teleprompter began to fail, forcing a member of your staff to bring out a phone in which she read out a pre-written script declaring her support for you.

      During her address, she also admitted that inflation was out of control, thus undermining your Regime’s economic record whilst in office.

  5. The Treasury is issuing monthly Social Security checks to over 5000 people whose birthdays show they are over 112 years old. Massive fraud and incompetence on its face. Musk estimates fraud to the entitlement programs to be hundreds of billions. But the Democrats went to court to stop the audit of the Treasury and received a temporary injunction. How does this court action serve the interest of law abiding Americans.
