USC Morning Buzz: Nothing Like Whining Over A Victory
USC routed Stanford on Wednesday night and kept itself in position to win the Pac-12. So what does Andy Enfield do? Whine about the schedule. “It is disappointing that Oregon doesn’t have to play UCLA in Pauley (Pavilion) like they were supposed to, but that’s all I really can say,” Enfield said after the Stanford game. All he can say? Why can’t he say more … Continue reading USC Morning Buzz: Nothing Like Whining Over A Victory
USC 79, Stanford 42
What an advertisement for Pac-12/Stanford basketball. Simply awful basketball.

Sales were down, before the pandemic, and the trend continued the past 12 months. As things start to … Continue reading What Would Full-Capacity Coliseum Mean In 2021?
Morning Buzz: A Sign USC Can Be Like SEC Schools
A USC student sent me this photo Monday. They said it was on a wall of a building on Figueroa St. about 2-3 blocks from campus. It’s surprising because that’s the kind of thing you might see in the SEC. Then again, I wrote yesterday that fans are even more fed up after not being able to vent last season, so maybe it’s not surprising. Continue reading Morning Buzz: A Sign USC Can Be Like SEC Schools
