It was wet and wild, here’s the review: Positive – Establishing the Running Game It was nice to see the SC offense go back to the basics and just pound the ball; to Chauncey’s credit, he did a fantastic job fighting for yards after the initial hit. Establishing the run game also seemed to help…

Washington breaks through for a 36-yard touchdown against Cal. (AP/Marcio Jose Sanchez) It was a dark and stormy night. Rain drenched the 72,516 sell-out crowd. The ball was water-logged. Fumbles were lost. Tackles were slipped. The field was slick. And Cal’s defense again and again saw a dark figure pounding out of the backfield. Guess…

Well defended, over his head and falling down, #1 Patrick Turner manages to reel it in for a touchdown. AP Photo/Mark J. Terrill Last season John David Booty suffered his first upset loss in Corvallis Oregon at the hands of the Oregon State Beavers. As fate would have it this season, Booty would come back…

<!–start image–><!– end image–>EUGENE, Ore. In the vaunted matchup of Oregon’s rushing attack and USC’s defense, the Ducks won. Dennis Dixon and Jonathan Stewart ran over the Trojans for 179 combined yards.

<!–//–> Feeling Green. Not even Notre Dame’s green throw-back jerseys would give them the luck they needed to keep their quarterback out of the jaws of Sedrick Ellis. It was a historic day for the Irish and one they would likely wish to forget. The USC Trojans beat Notre Dame 38-0 Saturday, in what has…

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.…

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…

Chauncey Washington dives for first touchdown against Arizona. (AP Photo/Mark J. Terrill) #6 is #1 today. The USC Trojans rally behind backup quarterback Mark Sanchez to tame the Arizona Wildcats 20-13. USC’s home winning streak up to 1. Relatively untested Sanchez got his first start Saturday, the week after John David Booty went down with…

Here’s my review of the game: Positive – Sedrick Ellis Continues His Strong Play Although Sed didn’t have a strong 4th quarter, he was absolutely dominating the 1st two and a half quarters and finished with 6 tackles and 3 sacks. The consistency in which Sed has played will make him a sure-fire 1st round…

Battle of the Washingtons. Trojan tailback Chauncey Washington eludes Washington defenders. (Wally Skalij / Los Angeles Times) While the Washington Huskies will lie in bed thinking about the #1 that got away, the USC Trojans will spend the night thanking their lucky stars they escaped on top. Trojan fans everywhere woke up Sunday morning breathing…

A lot of people thought USC answered all the big questions after going to the air last week to take down the Cougars. There may not be many questions for this Trojan squad to answer at this early stage of the season, but there are some. These are nit-picky considering how embarrassingly good the team…
