Schedule Poster Jinx Too?

PE.com - College Sports Blog

It was a cool idea, and well-executed too. That full-color USC schedule poster featuring 16 Trojans in action poses showed the strength and numbers of this year's USC team. But if you look at it closely, or did so at the end of Saturday's Arizona game, of the 16 original starters on that poster, guess how many were up... more »

The Thin Red Line

By Adam Rose, All Things Trojan

Make that a thin cardinal line protecting USC's backfield, which also happens to be hamstrung by injuries. While every team looses players during the season (Cal lost to Oregon State without their starting QB, Stanford beat USC without their's), can anybody in the nation match up with the Trojan's carnage? From USC football's weekly press release:Already this season, 11... more »

Point/Counterpoint: Will C.J. Gable's absence adversly affect USC's offense going forward?

Daily Trojan

C.J. Gable's season-ending surgery, while disappointing, will have absolutely zero effect on the offensive output of the USC football team. Sure, Gable leads the team with 11 yards per carry, but in the most recent win over Washington, the Trojans rushed for 226 yards while Gable looked on from the sidelines.... more »

USC CONTINUES BORING, HUMDRUM PERFECTION.

By Orson Swindle, EDSBS

USC has become so consistently good that we, as observers, have cruised past the offramp to boredom and instead gone deep into the territory serviced by the highway of absurdity. It’s nice out here, really: instant #2 slots in polls, near-certainty in victory, and no hyperventilation when it comes to For example. Pete Carroll dropped news today that would... more »

Carroll On Gable

Scott Wolf inside USC

Pete Carroll spoke at his press conference about C.J. Gable's groin injury. ``There's a chance that it's the best decision to operate on him,'' Carroll said. ``He's going to have to get it operated on one way or another and it might be the best situation to do it now and get him back for spring football. Otherwise he'd... more »

Gable to Have Season Ending Surgery

Devon Pollard, TrojanWire

C.J. Gable started off the season working his way straight up. With nearly 70-yards per game against both Idaho and Nebraska, Gable was set to easily surpass his 2006 record of 434 yards. But then something strange happened. At the conference home opener against Washington State, Gable carried for a mere six yards.

Then, like a plane flying into the Bermuda-triangle, C.J. Gable disappeared completely off the radar.

USC report card

By Mark, TributeToTroy

Mark Saxon, OC Register QUARTERBACK: B. This wasn’t the most dynamic way to begin a Heisman campaign. On the second drive, John David Booty looked like he was finally putting all that practice time to work. He read defenses, spread the ball around – hitting four different receivers in his four passes — and capped it with a short scoring... more »

TNYC Idaho Review

By AO, TrojanNYC

Here are my thoughts on last night's game: Positive - Running Game I liked what I saw from the running game. I was hesitant after the Fall Scrimmage to anoint Stafon the lead back, but after last night's game I believe he should get equal time with CW. He showed great patience, ability to break the 1st tackle, and... more »

The final score: USC 38, Idaho 10.

The USC Trojans were dominant throughout Saturday's season opener, beating a better than expected Idaho Vandals.

It wasn't the trouncing everyone had expected from a number one team. Still USC dominated both sides of the line throughout Saturday's opener at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, hoisting the Trojans' home-game win streak to 34.
