I was doing some research on USC’s 1972 season and came across this item in the media guide: “Every season, USC has to cut its season ticket sales off at about 50,000 and with the schedules the Trojans have lined up for this and future years there is no reason to see any change.” Only 50,000 season tickets?

Marcus Allen rushed for 226 yards and two touchdowns as No. 1 USC squeaked past No. 2 Oklahoma, 28-24, in 1981. Of course, the play everyone remembers is QB John Mazur’s 7-yard TD pass to TE Fred Cornwell (below) for the winning score. Continue reading USC Picture Of The Night

In the first few minutes, Granville says, “(we) ended up staying in the Ritz-Carlton after that whole fiasco with Coach Bibby.” So here’s what … Continue reading Did You Watch The USC-Kentucky Rewind?
I wrote a note in Monday’s USC newsletter about an assistant coach calling out the obsequious way Clay Helton acts toward Graham Harrell. The funny part is two USC coaches contacted me afterward asking if I was referring to them as the anonymous coach in the story who gave Helton a piece of their mind and I wasn’t referring to either of them! I was … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: It Might Be A Circus But At Least It’s Our Circus
Remember the big deal USC made when it hired LSU’s two hype video guys — Jacob Brown and Will Stout? Well, Stout quit today so that means neither lasted a year. Brown left last fall. If you don’t care, then ask yourself why did the USC administration make such a huge deal? #FightOn✌🏼 https://t.co/q2kQQHjmrB pic.twitter.com/s4p8K0ZMo0 — Brandon Sosna (@BrandonSosnaUSC) May 6, 2020 https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js It really … Continue reading The LSU Hype Video Guys Have Officially Left
