Remember last year I continually wrote USC would be worse this season? But Mike Bohn wanted to talk about the support staff being increased. USC got pushed around the field despite a new strength coach. The media sucks up to Todd Orlando but USC has not had a sack in two games. Kedon Slovis has not improved and might be worse. And there is no … Continue reading Discuss The USC-Stanford Game

OK, time for a live blog. Really, we’ve seen this type of performance before. Todd Orlando, what are you doing? You gave up two huge plays. You are Clancy Pendergast Jr. How bad was that USC TD drive? Kept throwing to same receiver. Thankfully Keontay Ingram got pushed into the end zone to tie the game, 7-7. Targeting on the kicker! And an 87-yard TD … Continue reading USC-Stanford Live Blog

OK, it’s time to make a prediction. I think Stanford needs to bounce back from last week’s pathetic loss at Kansas State. USC is being challenged by its coach to play a 60-minute game. I’m taking USC, 42-31. It might be closer than expeced but not enough to actually lose. What’s your prediction? Continue reading USC-Stanford: Pick The Score

UCLA QB coach Ryan Gunderson was also watching Iamaleava. Later today, we will pick the score. I’m starting to wonder if a four-quarter Tanner McKee will make an … Continue reading USC v. Stanford Game Day!

I’m sure there will be some type of video tribute to Sam Cunningham during Saturday’s football game. But whatever it does will be catch-up. Has USC even posted a photo gallery of Cunningham? Has it treated his passing as a loss of football royalty? One bit of news. I’ve heard Cunningham was scheduled for back surgery this month. Remember how a dining hall ran out … Continue reading If It’s Friday, It’s Time For A USC Notes Column

I like the way Pac-12 commissioner George Kliavkoff analyzed the Pac-12 North when he was interviewed by the Salt Lake City Deseret News. “I was there for the UCLA-LSU game. I probably chose the right game this weekend. It was unfortunate how the North (Division) performed,” Kliavkoff said. “I think we’ll do better. We were coming off a COVID year. There are teams in our … Continue reading George Kliavkoff Let’s North Have It
