Arizona 21-USC 17: How Far The Mighty Have Fallen

In the wake of yet another abysmal effort on the part of the once mighty USC Trojans, several thoughts occurred to me.
I wrote an article after USC was demolished by Oregon where I stated that the Trojans “just weren’t very good.”
Let me amend that.
The Trojans are mediocre and getting worse by the week.
This team isn’t [...]

USC-Arizona: Can Trojans Take Care of Wildcats and Go on a Holiday (Bowl)?

With the Oregon Ducks’ 37-33 victory over the Oregon State Beavers in the “Civil War,” a Pac-10 championship was secured by Oregon.
Along with that comes a berth for the Ducks in the Rose Bowl, where they will face the Ohio State Buckeyes.
This appearance will mark the first time since 1995 that the Ducks will participate [...]

Laying the Foundation: USC Football Recruiting, 2009; Good Times Ahead?

In an ongoing effort to let fans of the Trojans know what is going on with recruiting at USC, here is an updated view of prep targets Pete Carroll and his staff have in their sights.
As any fan of the Trojans knows, recruiting is the foundation upon which a successful college football program rests, and [...]

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.
However, I have found this exercise to be tedious and limiting in terms of being able to express what I want to say.
So, in what can only be described as a [...]

Laying the Foundation: USC Football Recruiting in 2009 (DJ Morgan)

In a season that has experienced many lows and few highs, the 2009 USC Trojan recruiting class has begun to follow suit.
DJ Morgan, the speedy tailback out of Woodland Hills, CA (Taft High) and rated the No. 36 top prep prospect by ESPN, tore his ACL in his last game.
This injury will end the season [...]

Should The USC Trojans Sit Matt Barkley If He Struggles Against UCLA?

First, let me emphatically state that I am aware that what I am proposing would be considered blasphemy just five short weeks ago.
Bench Matt Barkley?
Are you serious?
The short answer is yes. But with an explanation.
I am aware that for USC, the future is Matt Barkley.
But is it fair to the team if the quarterback of [...]

A Trojan Fan’s Perspective: Choke On It, Jim Harbaugh

First, for sake of full disclosure, I readily admit I am a USC Trojan fan.
Big time.
Second, I am not too proud to take absolute delight in the suffering of a newly despised program via the hands of another besides my beloved Trojans.
Of course, that “newly despised” program is the Stanford Cardinal led by their chief [...]

Is The Arizona State Game The Most Important In The Pete Carroll Era?

A new and ominous sound is being heard throughout college football.
Distant rumblings of smug assertions by those whose teams have suffered through eight years of Trojan dominance, either directly or indirectly, are becoming louder.
Has Pete Carroll lost his magic touch with the USC Trojans?
After last Saturday’s 47-20 blowout loss to Oregon, some are saying that [...]

What USC Trojan Fans Must Ponder After The Scream In Eugene

A day after USC’s defense embarrassed itself against the Oregon Ducks and now the Trojan faithful must ask itself some hard questions.
What the hell happened out there?
Was the Trojan defense truly that bad or was the Oregon Duck offense that good?
Or was it a combination of both?
Truth be told, this shouldn’t have come as a [...]

Has The Trojan Running Back Stable Turned Into a Stall?

Okay Trojan fans, before you gear up to blast me with facts about how USC’s running game is strong, resurgent and very effective, hold your horses (pun intended).
This isn’t about the running game itself per se.
With the two-headed monster of Joe McKnight (more on him later) and Allen Bradford, the results are starting to speak [...]
