There is a complete difference of opinion about USC between the fans who expect a trip to the expanded College Football Playoff and the oddsmakers, who set the regular-season over/under at 7.5.

The NFL Players Assn. is holding its annual Rookie Premiere event this weekend and as usual, it’s at the Coliseum. So it’s a homecoming for Caleb Williams, who was one of the 40 invited rookies to the select event. You know who else is there? Brenden Rice.
