USC Saturday Buzz: The Petty GM At Work
Is Chad “Charmin” Bowden just a petty person or did he leave Notre Dame on bad terms? The Trojans just mocked Notre Dame in a video (below) and it’s basically taking shots at a video the Irish previously produced. Who else at USC would even remember a Notre Dame video than the small-minded Bowden? He even did a voice-over in the USC version, which takes … Continue reading USC Saturday Buzz: The Petty GM At Work
Meltdown In Nebraska
USC had an epic meltdown on a cold Friday night in Nebraska, blowing a 7-2 eighth-inning lead and losing, 8-7, in 10 innings. The Trojans lost on a walkoff bunt (see below) and Nebraska scored the tying run on a wild pitch.

Gary Patterson Loves Being Captain Video
Gary Patterson talked today and one thing he re-confirmed to those familiar with him is his love of watching film. “I already watched a couple games of San Jose (State) and they throw it all over the place,” he said. “I watched Oregon a couple times. I’m not going to be the smartest guy in the room so I’ve got to outprepare people.” Patterson said … Continue reading Gary Patterson Loves Being Captain Video
