A Busy Day For USC Basketball
USC lost to UCLA, 72-67, in the Big Ten women’s basketball championship game. Both teams should get No. 1 seeds when the NCAA Tournament pairings are released. JuJu Watkins made only 9 of 28 shots in the game. One issue I have with Watkins is when she is struggling from the field, she doesn’t do much to get her teammates more shots. She had two … Continue reading A Busy Day For USC Basketball
Sunday Buzz: Eric Musselman Rips USC Fans
USC laid an egg (again) against UCLA on Saturday night and Eric Musselman didn’t hold back after the game. First, he had a go at the players. “I felt like the rivalry, (our players) didn’t understand even in Game 1, and they certainly didn’t understand today what it means to the student body at USC, the boosters and the alumni,” he said. “We played like … Continue reading Sunday Buzz: Eric Musselman Rips USC Fans

They wonder why USC couldn’t have had one of those events earlier in … Continue reading USC Saturday Buzz: Scheduling Quirk Dismays Some
If It’s Friday, It’s Time For A USC Notes Column
It’s something to actually be able to watch first-round games of the Big Ten women’s basketball tournament and men’s games next week. I can’t even remember when I last saw Pac-12 Tournament first-round games that were always on the Pac-12 Network. USC plays Indiana at 9 a.m. PT today. A DIFFERENT WORLD If you weren’t at the game, you could listen to Frank Bull, who … Continue reading If It’s Friday, It’s Time For A USC Notes Column
A Brief Update On USC’s Schedule
USC has designated the Nov. 8 game with Northwestern as Trojan Family Weekend. This is significant because the university will not have family weekend when the football game is on a Friday night. So that means the Northwestern game should not be a candidate to move to a Friday night. The assumption within the athletic dept. is that the Michigan State or Iowa games could … Continue reading A Brief Update On USC’s Schedule
