Hawaii
DC Trojan and I collaborated on this... It is an interesting question that many have asked, particularly the Notre Dame faithful who have nothing they can look back on fondly from the Pete Carroll period of this rivalry... actually, if someone got hit on the head while rushing the field before the officials put enough seconds on the clock...

Yes, Sam Bradford is back, but that's not enough for the Sooners. Take the Longhorns and give the points in the Red River Rivalry.Jon Wilner, San Jose Mercury News:...

In one of the fiercest recruiting battles of the 2008-2009 school year, Notre Dame defeated USC. Linebacker Manti Te'o of Hawaii chose the Fighting Irish over the Trojans in February, a decision that surprised many who thought USC Coach Pete......

Posted by ESPN.com's Ted Miller Went 7-1 last week -- any idea which game I missed? Things get a little more interesting this week with three marquee nonconference road games and a must-win for Washington State. USC 27, Ohio State 20: The Buckeyes will show a lot of pride at home, but the Trojans just have too many horses...

Posted by ESPN.com's Ted Miller I apologize I forgot to tell you last week to watch the post-game at Boise State. I talked to more than a few folks who clicked their TVs off either late in the fourth or at the final bell and missed all the, er, fun. As for this week, we've got three marquee nonconference...

One thing about the Rose Bowl: It's never been for the little guy. Even since the Granddaddy relinquished its death grip on the Big Ten and Pac-10 champions to join the BCS, only five teams have won their way into Pasadena without a conference championship, and only one of those (No. 13 Illinois in 2007) came into the game...

Let's face it, an obsession with listmaking — otherwise known as glazomania — is ingrained into probably 90 percent of the human race. For college football pundits, this is probably just as well, since listing and ranking everything from teams, players, and coaches to the wieners at various stadiums' concession stands probably makes up two-thirds of their weekly workload....

I've grown tired of the whole soap opera swirling around Manti Te'o's decision not to come to USC and the probable package deal that brought both Te'o and Roby Toma to Notre Dame. A lot of what I read seems like sour grapes but becuase we have never seen either of our rivals use this sort of tactic it...

Roll Tide, an SEC-loving member of the bleacher report, recently put up a blog post entitled USC is a Joke. In the comments section of his own blog he posted this statement:
It's just my belief that teams like Notre Dame and USC are consistently overrated... Who does USC play that really tests them?
Well Roll Tide, we can't but agree with you on the Notre Dame front. But I thought we here at TrojanWire should, being the good Samaritans we are, look into the past USC records to get you that information you requested.
2002 USC 24, Auburn 17 (USC WIN)
2002 Alabama 7, Auburn 17 (Alabama LOSS)
2003 USC 23, Auburn 0 (USC WIN)
2003 Alabama 23, Auburn 28 (ALABAMA LOSS)
2003 USC 61, Hawaii 32 (USC WIN)
2003 Alabama 29, Hawaii 37 (Alabama LOSS)
2005 USC 70, Arkansas 17 (USC MURDEROUS WIN)
2005 Alabama 24, Arkansas 13 (HOLY S--T! Alabama actually won ONE!)
2006 USC 50, Arkansas 14 (USC WIN)
2006 Alabama 23, Arkansas 24 (big surprise - ALABAMA LOSS)
Well to answer your question, Roll Tide, USC plays the EXACT SAME GUYS YOUR TEAM LOSES TO EACH YEAR!... Oh, and see those little numbers next to the colleges up there, those are called final scores. Maybe if you had got past second grade English and Math, you might be able to actually check your stats and make some meaningful analysis. If USC is the Joke, then Alabama is the punch line. And we're all laughing.

It’s time for the HP Heisman Watch. This is my ranking of the players who have the best chance at actually winning the Heisman. It is not a predicted order of the voting, so some players who are not on this list will still get Heisman votes in the end. 1. Chris Wells, Ohio State–Wells holds on to the...

Posted by ESPN.com's Ted Miller From the Football Writers Association of America (FWAA): The USC Trojans are the top-ranked team in the Football Writers Association of America's preseason Grantland Rice Super 16 Poll. The Trojans nipped second-ranked Georgia, although both schools picked up five first-place votes. It's the fourth time in five years USC has been picked No. 1...
