Norm Chow
Posted by ESPN.com's Ted Miller The big one is in Eugene but every game matters. Three teams are chilling at home. 1. Matt Barkley thinks Autzen Stadium is going to be a barrel of monkeys: Matt Barkley told the LA Times that he's looks forward to playing in Autzen Stadium -- "the energy is going to be awesome and...

I think three reasons can trace USC's decline in scoring in Pac-10 games from 2002-05 to 2006-08. 1. Norm Chow. 2. Reggie Bush. 3. The decrease in takeaways. Here's some stats from the Morning Buzz: USC's takeaways decreased the past four seasons. The Trojans averaged 38 per year in Carroll's first five seasons. But in the next three seasons...

Posted by ESPN.com's Ted Miller The backup quarterback is just a bruised shoulder or broken jaw away from taking over the most critical position on the field -- just ask USC or UCLA. There's already been plenty of quarterback movement in the conference -- injuries, depth chart changes, etc. -- so it seemed like a good time to see...

It's that time of the month again for some in the press... The time for them to pine for the past when USC doesn't live up to expectations. We hear it constantly from the insufferable Scott Wolf. We recently heard it from the insufferable Matt Hayes. And now Chris Dufresne has joined the chorus (circus?). It really is a...

Posted by ESPN.com's Ted Miller If you just want to cut to the chase, he's the best offensive coordinator in the history of college football. In 33 seasons at the collegiate level, Norm Chow has been part of three national championships, guided three Heisman Trophy winners, coached eight of the NCAA's top 30 in career passing efficiency and produced...

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...

How surprising was it Manti Te’o, the top-ranked linebacker in the nation, chose Notre Dame over USC on signing day? “I was shocked about Te’o, absolutely floored,” said Greg Biggins, recruiting director for ESPN RISE. “For three years it was either USC or BYU. When he eliminated BYU everyone thought it was a done deal, he was going to...

We held out for a couple weeks, but from now on Washington coach Steve Sarkisian will officially be known as Brutus on this blog, after his strategy to try and turn USC commitments James Boyd and Simione Vehikite to the Huskies backfired. It might not be unethical (it's competing!) but it's sure frayed a relationship that seemed like a...

With the great matchup in the SEC Championships today, it’s almost a shame that I’ll be stuck watching this presumably meaningless rivalry game. I know, I’m assuming that USC will blow out that team in the girly baby blue uniforms, but c’mon. Lets be real.
And that’s why I’ll be switching back and forth between CBS and ABC for the next three hours.
That’s right. The first ever two-game running game diary.

We'd gather most USC fans are going to be ecstatic over this. A change to anything but Steve Sarkisian, USC's sole offensive coordinator the past two seasons, will be a welcomed risk.
All we care about is that he schools Norm Chow on Saturday.
Huskies set to hire Steve Sarkisian, according to report [The Seattle Times]

PAC 10 FOOTBALL CLAP CLAP CLAPCLAPCLAP. The mike’s all yours, gorgeous. Somehow stunning and craptacular at the same time. The only possible explanation for UCLA coming back–excluding Tennessee’s sphincter-seizure and the grand folly that was the Clawfense–is this: Norm Chow mind bolts and the extremely low resting heart rate of Kevin Craft. Nothing else explains throwing four picks in...

Posted by ESPN.com's Ted Miller For entertainment purposes only. And if I'm wrong, I'm guessing you'll be entertained. Oregon State 24, Stanford 20: This smelled like a potential Stanford upset, but then the Cardinal got hit with a couple of injuries on the OL and at WR, so the Beavers get the nod in a game that figures to...
