Ohio State has it written into its Big Ten TV deal that it can refuse to play night games after Daylight Savings Time ends. Now why doesn’t USC worry about getting things into its TV deal instead of not playing Notre Dame? Like less Friday games.

After USC beat Notre Dame in 1970, John McKay said, “Fifty years from now our seniors can sit around the fireplace and say they never lost to Notre Dame.” That’s a foreign concept to Lincoln Riley and Chad “Charmin” Bowden, who would rather say, “Fifty years from now our seniors can sit around the fireplace and say the Big Ten got four automatic berths in … Continue reading USC Notes: What We Be Remembered In 50 Years?

C/J’Onre Reed/Sr./Killian O’Connor, Jr. RG/Alani Noa/Jr./Micah Banuelos, So. RT/Tobias Raymond/So./ Elijah Vaikona, … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Let’s Look At The Line
