USC-UCLA Split Dual Track Meet
USC and UCLA have split the dual track meet. The Bruin men won, 87-76 while the Trojan women won, 93-69.

It Pays Off To Do A Spring Game
Look at the crowd and the goodwill generated by UCLA today at its spring game at the Rose Bowl. It is insane that Lincoln Riley would cede this to the Crosstown Rival. Every school should do a spring game for their fans. Never listen to the entitled coach just because he doesn’t want to do something. USC fans would have loved a day like this.

USC Morning Buzz: Several Defensive Questions Heading Into Season
Here are some questions I have about USC’s defense going into the season: On coming back next season: “It’s a statement for me and a statement for USC,” Arenas said. It’s also a statement that his draft stock wasn’t where he thought it was.
