Matt Barkley Vs. Carson Palmer: A Glimpse Into The Trojans Future?

As I emerge from the fog of a disappointing USC Trojan season, I wearily struggle to find some hope for the future.
Reaching deep into the abyss of my waning optimism, I think I have found that hope in the oddest of places.

Winning UGLY (and Controversially): USC 28 UCLA 7

At various times this season, I have written Trojan “Report Cards,” which break down USC’s efforts by unit: offensive, defensive, and special teams, including coaching.

Now, before you go off and accuse me of being facetious and sarcastic, let me set you straight.

Trojan Report Card: USC 30 Cal 3

“One for Stafon”
As the USC Trojans mantra evolved from “win one for Stafon” to “won one for Stafon,” one thing became abundantly clear.
Pete Carroll and his staff, along with the rest of the team, did a marvelous job of channelling their emotions for their fallen teammate, Stafon Johnson, who is back home recuperating from a [...]

Is Allen Bradford The Key to Fixing The USC Trojans Offensive Woes?

Ever since Lendale White took his considerable game to the NFL, the USC Trojans have been searching for that bruising back that could combine raw power with running prowess.
Pete Carroll thought he had found his man in Broderick Green, a 230 pound beast of a runner who came to the Trojans in 2007 from Pulaski [...]
