Just my luck USC is playing and Stanford the weekend that I am in San Francisco....and they are playing in L.A.

Anyway, I haven't had a chance to read much on this game...

FIGHT ON!

the Huskies are in first place...USC is at the back of the pack.

Should be interesting to see how USC fares in the Pacific Northwest.

FIGHT ON!

Now that USC has a conference win, lets see how they respond tonight.

This team is still woefully undermanned so at some point these guys will get tired.

FIGHT ON!

Well, this one should be fun.

'SC is favored by something like 12.5 points...then again 'SC was favored by like 1.5 points over Colorado and we saw how that worked out.

I am in Florida at a meeting so, maybe I can find the game on somewhere here.

FIGHT ON!

USC hosts Colorado at the Galen Center tonight. While Colorado has a better overall record than USC, they have a losing record on the road. Could this be a chance for SC to get a conference win?

In today's instance of "finding journalistic lemonade in a lemony bad season," the LA Times' game preview centered around an interview with Garrett Jackson, who says of this year:

I don't even know if I lost this many games in high school all four years.

Great.

Well, this is the open thread - cheer on the Men of Troy; hopefully they can post a result that they'll be happy with. Fight on!

SHould be an interesting game.

OSU is coming off a win over UCLA so the question is will they let down or is USC so undermanned that the Beavers will win no matter what.

No game here in NYC...

FIGHT ON!

With Aaron Fuller now out for the season, USC is going to struggle even more on the boards tonight.

USC has lost four in a row to the Ducks and is without a conference win.

We haven't seen a record like this since 1989.

Whoo-boy, when the LA Times preview of this game is, in essence. "these teams aren't very good but maybe the rivalry angle will spice it up," you know you've got a potential barn-burner on your hands.

You can tell because Gus Johnson (apparently popular with basketball fans) has been assigned to do the commentary. Why, just see the enthusiasm in the aforementioned LA Times preview:

Gus Johnson, who will be calling the game for Fox Sports, said that sometimes when two rivals who are used to much greater success play in the down times, the fierceness factor on the court grows.

"It might add more drama," Johnson said Friday. "Guys don't want to be publicly embarrassed losing to their rival.

"At the beginning of a season teams always set goals. Win a signature out-of-conference game, play well in the conference, be above .500 in your conference, whatever it is. And beat the team you have the biggest rivalry against.

"Sometimes, when all those other goals are gone, coaches and players can still circle that particular game, that rivalry game and get the ultimate concentration and performance out of players."

On a brighter note, Harold Miner will be at the game, and his jersey will be retired at the game tonight. Not a bad way for Miner to continue his slow return into the public eye.

Anyway, this is the open thread for all interested participants. Fight On! Beat the Bruins!

Not sure what to expect today. If USC lost to a undermanned ASU team on Thursday, how will they fare against a much better Arizona team?

Patience is wearing thin with Kevin O'Neiil.

Much of the fan base has lost interest because of this teams poor performance. You can't blame it all on injuries, other message board mods are no starting to question O'Neill's future. Those of you who actually attend game at Galen can't be happy with the product...a prodcut so bad that it isn't even shown outside of the western timezone, if that much.

Here are some previews from the Arizona side of things...

- Arizona Wildcats seek weekend split against USC Trojans

- Seriously, it's a must-win for the Arizona Wildcats against the USC Trojans

FIGHT ON!

The Sun Devils come to Galen tonight...minus three players.

Arizona State will be without three players when it faces USC tonight, according to a report by the Arizona Republic.

The Republic said Mater Dei graduate Keala King, fellow starter Kyle Cain and reserve Chris Colvin were suspended for “unacceptable conduct,” and did not make the Sun Devils’ trip to Southern California.

So, I guess that means USC has a chance?
