Many teams try to argue that strong recent performances justify a move to the PAC 10. This post will attempt to separate the wheat from the chafe.

This is the first of a 4 part series on the sword of Damocles hanging over the current conference alignment that is PAC 10 expansion. Eventually, at a time of their choosing, the PAC 10 will add two members and reap the profits of a football championship game. This first part gives an outline of what will lay ahead...

From ESPN.com:Mayo showed his brilliance as a scorer, with 20 of his 29 points in the first half, but it was the rest of the Trojans keying a second-half surge as USC routed Washington 73-59 on Thursday night.

Rey Maualuga and Lawrence Jackson punish ASU's Rudy Carpenter. Last year's crushing hit by Rey Maualuga on UCLA's Patrick Cowan became a wildly popular YouTube video. This year, there've been a lot more bone-jarring clips by the Trojan's ruthless defense, and we thought you might enjoy some of the best available online. Remember that not every clip makes it...

Mark Saxon, Orange County Register David Ausberry might have been the most dominant Trojans receiver in spring and fall camps. He caught as many superlatives from USC coaches as he did passes from USC quarterbacks. So far, most of Ausberry’s glory has come on the practice field.

I'm blogging from a train in Gary, Indiana. The South Shore Line (from Chicago to South Bend) has "indefinite delays" due to a problem on the tracks. Perfect time to catch up on the best (and worst) in this week's punditry, reporting, and YouTube videos. UPDATE: They've scratched the train and are bringing in buses. But at least they're...

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.

USC 47, WSU 14
Last year a similar Washington State team nearly pulled a fourth quarter upset of topped ranked USC. After the opening series of this 2007 game, with a tied score of 7, it looked like it could be another contentious battle.
Instead the WSU offense folded, the defense crumbled, and USC's prized cougar hunt became something more of a methodical kitten slaughter...

One of them, Travon Patterson, has been less than 100 percent much of the season and the other, Vidal Hazelton, had a big night in the opener against Idaho, then vanished at Nebraska. But both had big days Wednesday and reminded you that the Trojans may not have had anyone step up and stake out any of the wide...

Erik McKinney, WeAreSC The Washington State Cougars may head to Los Angeles with a 2-1 record this season, but they’ve really only been tested by one opponent, and the Wisconsin Badgers ran away with a season-opening 42-21 victory. Since then, the Cougars have padded their stats against San Diego State and Idaho, slapping 45 points on both teams in...
