A Night To Remember
Nearly 71 years ago to this day, there was a huge disturbance at USC as 2,000 students flooded the Row and caused mayhem. USC officials released a statement that attributed the disturbance to “spring fever.” That was a common explanation in those days when students massed and began to cause disturbances. However, the students who tried to enter the Alpha Chi Omega sorority without permission … Continue reading A Night To Remember
USC Morning Buzz: Who’s Right? The Oddsmakers Or Fans?
There is a complete difference of opinion about USC between many fans who expect a trip to the expanded College Football Playoff and the oddsmakers, who set the regular-season over/under at 7.5. Who is more likely to be right? It’s a pretty low number (7.5) for USC but the schedule is difficult. The first three games could set the tone with USC playing LSU and … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Who’s Right? The Oddsmakers Or Fans?

USC Morning Buzz: What’s To Like/Dislike After Spring Drills
USC’s defense is definitely better. It’s offense looks worse. That is the first reaction right now following spring practice, which could change with more transfer portal activity ahead. The question is whether the defense’s improvement offsets the offense’s inexperience/issues?

What I don’t like yet is … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: What’s To Like/Dislike After Spring Drills
USC Notes: Here’s One Guy Happy To Miss Big Ten
Andy Enfield has to be thrilled he won’t be facing that Big Ten schedule. Last week, a high school recruit told me when Enfield told him that he was leaving for SMU, he said he didn’t want to move to the Big Ten. I’ve said that since USC decided to join the Big Ten. Enfield liked his cupcakes and didn’t want to deal with some … Continue reading USC Notes: Here’s One Guy Happy To Miss Big Ten
