"After playing 3 of its first 4 on the road, No. 3/2 USC returns to the comforts of the Coliseum for a 2-game homestand, with hot Washington up first. The Trojans, who have won 49 of their last 51 games, bring in some awe-inspiring winning streaks: 28 home games, 25 Pac-10 games and 19 Pac-10 home games (all are Pac-10 records), as well as 16 consecutive October victories. Troy has also scored at least 20 points in an NCAA-record 56 straight contests. It's USC's only day game in the Coliseum this season, the fewest in 100 years."
thoughts: Washington is playing some very good football at the moment and USC does not appear to be at the top of their game. Injuries have limited SC as well as replacing key offensive players from last season. however, SC usually starts slow and builds as the year progresses. i expect a better showing from the Trojans at home as well as players better understanding their roles...Trojans will get stronger and stronger each game (barring injuries).
prediction: USC 35
UDub 10

USC 34
UW 14
I can't wait for when the Ducks play at USC. That will be USC's first loss.
...careful what you wish for...and you might want to focus on this week. i think Cal is going to beat Oregon in a CLASSIC. but, if USC continues to play like they are human then they could easily lose to Oregon or Cal...thankfully there is ample time to get back on track before those games.
ha ha. no doubt possible, i just hope the defense is solid and the O puts up at least 35.
no doubt. thats cool that you have season tickets too. i only got to go to like 3 games a year b/c of rugby, but i miss going. so i guess you will be there tomorrow then...fight on bro.
yep, i'm leaving now (are you going to any games this year?). fight on!
i'd love to go to a few games this year, but i am not sure with my schedule yet. i will be moving out of Texas here in a little while and if i can i will head out to LA and hopefully see a couple games with my friends.
last game i was at was the Rose Bowl last year...i jinxed 'em! anyway, my roommate's (college) dad worked for USC and we used to get tickets from him...but he passed away of a heart attack a couple years ago...very sudden and unexpected. so we'll see...
enjoy the game! fight on.
Hey John, you OK out there? What the is happening out there in the Coliseum?
SC 23, UW 20 - 9:00 left in the 4th.
USC barely beat Washingston State, they are bound to lose a game
Washington has a chance to win it, down by 6 pts with 1:30 left
Damn, that was a ed up 2 seconds
USC escapes yet again. I doubt they escape against Arizona State next week. Arizona State is a lot better than Washington and Washington State.
USC has to be the most overrated team in the country right now. Not nearly the #2 team they will probably be placed at since Auburn lost.
I'm sure JWG still thinks Texas isn't a top 5 team.
Yup, Texas or Ohio State would kill USC.
...i am not OK, and neither is USC football. we just cannot escape the injury bug. Steve Smith left the game due to injury and Jarrett did not play as well...add that to our long list of injured personel.
a TD called back did not help as well. but if you look at SC's season, they beat ARK 50-14 then beat Nebraska 28-10 since then injuries have really plagued the teams ability to stay consistant. i just hope we can get through ASU next week and then get that much needed bye week. we don't have the auroa of invincibility like we did in the beginning of the year...
...you don't know anything about USC, else you would not make that statement. it is clear that SC's play has dived since the first two games b/c of the amazing amount of injuries we have sustained. and i don't want to hear 1) t.u. has dealt with injuries 2) injuries are part of the game....whatever, almost 30 injuries are going to affect a team. its an unfortunate string of events...
Who caresthey shouldn't be pussies and get injured or not play
I played my whole sophmore season with a broken wrist in a cast and I was the running back. So that is a bunch of crap.
USC does NOT look like a team that would be in the NC Championship game. But then again, from what I have seen from UT, they dont either. I dont think either of last years Rose Bowl teams will be playing for a Championship this year.
Then they arn't the true #2 team in the country right now. If you think they are the number 2 team in the country RIGHT NOW, injuries or not they should be winning these games by a lot more.
