The Cardinal is Troy’s oldest current rival (the first game was Nov. 10 Arizona State TBA Nov. 17 at UCLA TBA in 1905). The Trojans have dropped 3 in a row to Stanford (USC has never lost 4 straight to Nov. 24 Notre Dame TBA (ABC/ESPN) the Cardinal) and 4 of the past 5 contests, including last year’s triple overtime classic and at the gun in 2010. It is USC’s second of 4 road games in a 5-game span. The Trojans PAC-12 STANDINGS traditionally haven’t fared well against ranked Stanford squads. USC, which has scored at least 30 points in its past 10 games, is 12th nationally in scoring offense after its pull-away- PAC-12 OVERALL in-the-fourth-quarter win over Syracuse last Saturday on the East Coast. USC QB Matt W L W L Barkley, the leading contender for the Heisman Trophy whose 10 TD passes this year are a SOUTH national best, is closing in on the Pac-12 all-time touchdown pass record, as well as USC’s ARIZ 0 0 2 0 ASU00 20 passing and total offense career marks. All-American WR Robert Woods, coming off a huge UCLA 0 0 2 0 game last weekend, is quickly moving up Troy’s pass catching ladder, while fellow WR USC00 20 Marqise Lee is in the national Top 6 in receptions, receiving yards, all-purpose yards, scoring UTAH 0 0 1 1 and kickoff returns. The Biletnikoff Award candidates are the only USC duo with double COLO 0 0 0 2 digit receptions in a game, having done so for the second time last weekend against NORTH Syracuse. Penn State transfer Silas Redd had his first 100-yard rushing game as a Trojan last ORE00 20 Saturday and joins with fellow 2011 1,000-yard TB Curtis McNeal to bolster the USC ground STAN 0 0 2 0 attack. The Trojan defense, although surrendering lots of yards to the pass-happy Orange, OSU00 10 CAL00 11 is in the NCAA’s Top 10 in turnover margin. Top defenders wearing cardinal and gold WASH 0 0 1 1 include All-American S T.J. McDonald and CB Nickell Robey (both are Thorpe Award WSU00 11 candidates), along with 2011 Freshman All-American LBs Dion Bailey (he had 2 picks against Syracuse) and Hayes Pullard. Stanford, led by head coach David Shaw (whose uncle was AP POLL USA TODAY POLL an All-American at USC), is coming off an easy home victory over Duke. The Cardinal offense is guided by new QB Josh Nunes and RB Stepfan Taylor, who is third on the school’s 1. Alabama 1. Alabama career rushing, rushing TDs and 100-yard rushing games lists. The defense, fifth nationally in 2. USC 2. LSU turnover margin and sixth in rushing defense, includes the likes of OLB Chase Thomas, a 2011 3. LSU 3. USC 4. Oregon 4.

  • The Following Players Comprise the College Football Great Teams 2 Card Set
    COLLEGE FOOTBALL GREAT TEAMS OF THE PAST 2 SET ROSTER The following players comprise the College Football Great Teams 2 Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players in bold are starters. If there is a difference between the player's card and the roster sheet, always use the card information. The number in ()s after the player name is the number of cards that the player has in this set.
