<description><![CDATA[    
<p>Allen Bradford loses 1 yard on a carry. On 3rd down, Gerald Washington blocks Corp's pass. Next!<br />
</p>
<p>Actually, they are still going with Corp. Bradford gains 2 yards on a carry.<br />
Corp escapes a sack and gains about 19 yards on a scramble. Joe McKnight jukes a couple times and gains 14 yards. Corp's pass in deflected by Taylor Mays. McKnight then drops Corp's pass to avert a potential good gain. <br />
Corp calmly rolls out and finds Damian Willaims for 12 yards. Corp then fumbles the snap and Stafon Johnson picks up the ball, lose of five. Corp's pass is deflected, looks like Wes Horton got it. On 3rd and 16, Corp's pass is incomplete.<br />
Time to catch a breath. Corp looks calm, his arm is not the strongest but he plays under control and can avoid the rush.<br />
Mustain back in the game. Green loses a yard. Mustain throws to Adam Goodman, who can't hold on to it. Mustain then throws incomplete to David Ausberry, who is well covered.<br />
Garrett Green in at QB. B. Green carries for a loss of one. Green then throws to Blake Ayles, but for no gain and follows with an incomplete pass.<br />
Mustain throws to Goodman for 9 yards. Bradford then loses a couple yards. Mustain throws behind Ronald Johnson, incomplete.<br />
Corp back in and throws an incomplete pass. He then finds Travon Patterson open for about 17 yards. He throws a nice ball to Scott Stephens, who drops it, but pass intereference is called. Corp is sacked by Derek Simmons. Corp finds Patterson for 19 yards. <br />
Corp scrambles for 10 yards. Corp fumbles another snap and this time the defense recovers.<br />
Looks like its halftime. We've got some center-QB snap issues with both quarterbacks and the running game is not impressive.<br />
Second half. Mustain in. B. Green gains no yards and Mustain finds Brandon Carswell for about seven yards. Mustain to a diving D.J. Shoemate for about 4 yards. Marc Tyler enters and gains a yard. B. Green then gains 2 yards. Mustain then finds Tyler for 13 yards, but it's called back. Mustain throws a short pass to Carswell, who drops it.<br />
Corp in and gets sacked. He then scrambles for five yards when the protection breaks down. <br />
Corp throws to McKnight, who is hit hard by Kevin Ellison and drops. That hit leads to some unsportsmanlike conduct on both sides for offsetting penalties.<br />
Garrett Green back in. He throws incomplete, <strike>then finds Blake Ayles, who gains 11 yards and looks like he has the wheels to maybe break some runs off passes this season</strike>. Green finds a wide-open Stephens for 7 yards. <br />
TOUCHDOWN -- Green down sideline to Carswell for 42 yards.<br />
Mustain at QB. McKnight gains about six and then Mustain finds Rhett Ellison for 14 yards. Mustain then hits Ellison again for seven yards. A defensive penalty on a play where Ellison catches a 3 yard pass.<br />
Mustain then throws to Bradford, who gains 18 yards. McKnight gains 6 yards. Mustain's pass is intercepted in the end zone, maybe by Brian Baucham.<br />
It's over!</p>

<description><![CDATA[<p><img border="0" src="http://www.trojanwire.com/images/konrad-reuland.jpg" title="Mission Viejo TE Konrad Reuland" alt="Mission Viejo TE Konrad Reuland" style="margin: 0px 5px 5px 0px; float: left;" />4-star/Blue Chip tight end <a href="http://www.trojanwire.com/football/konrad-reuland/">Konrad Reuland</a> from Mission Viejo High School is reportedly still considering signing with the Trojans, after taking a cross-country trip to visit Notre Dame, Miami, Ohio State and Nebraska, according to <a href="http://usc.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=460623">Rivals.com</a>. </p>

<p><a href="http://insider.espn.go.com/ncf/recruiting/tracker/player?recruitId=22831">ESPN</a> had been reporting that Reuland had Stanford #1, SC #2, and Notre Dame #3 earlier in the year.
