John Robinson Insta-Reaction
Someone I know saw John Robinson on the field before today’s LSU-Auburn game and took this picture. So I told them to ask Robinson if he were happy Lynn Swann got fired. “Aw, you know . . .” Robinson said. It all seems to have worked out for Robinson, who is on the sideline for LSU.

Morning Buzz: Reverend Helton Praises The Victory
Here’s Clay Helton after the USC victory: “Glory to God, we have a bunch of great kids and that was a great college football game.” And on USC recovering the second Kedon Slovis fumble: “The good Lord was watching over the Trojans tonight.” Helton also praised his coaches again for doing nothing particularly special. Last week, it was Clancy Pendergast‘s “twist game” that flopped the … Continue reading Morning Buzz: Reverend Helton Praises The Victory

Chase McGrath was 9 for 9 on field goals … Continue reading USC-Colorado Live Blog

If you asked me three players I think USC cannot afford to lose for a game, I might pick defensive end Drake Jackson, safety Talanoa Hufanga and tailback Markese Stepp. That might spell doom for USC in a normal situation but this is the Pac-12 we are talking about here. And Clay Helton probably gets to wear his slippers for a second straight week as … Continue reading My USC-Colorado Pick
If It’s Friday, It’s Time For A USC Notes Column
Last month when I wrote about going to lunch with sports columnist/radio host Doug Krikorian in Long Beach. While Doug was questioning why Clay Helton was ever hired at USC, I noticed Helton’s wife, Angela, was sitting at the next table with a USC booster. What I didn’t know is if she heard any or all of Doug’s comments before I noticed she was there? … Continue reading If It’s Friday, It’s Time For A USC Notes Column
