2009 USC Trojans Football USC Overall Team Statistics (As of Dec 05, 2009) All Games 2009 USC TROJANS E NOTES GAM FOOTBALL SPORTS INFORMATION OFFICE • HER 103 • LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA 90089-0601 TELEPHONE: (213) 740-8480 FAX: (213) 740-7584 WWW.USCTROJANS.COM TIM TESSALONE, DIRECTOR FOR RELEASE: Dec. 14, 2009 2009 SCHEDULE (8-4) DATE OPPONENT TIME USC FOOTBALL BATTLES BOSTON COLLEGE IN EMERALD BOWL Sept. 5 San Jose State W 56-3 Sept. 12 at Ohio State W 18-15 FACTS Sept. 19 at Washington L 13-16 USC (8-4 overall, 5-4 Pacific-10 for fifith place tie) vs. Boston College (8-4 overall, 5-3 Atlantic Sept. 26 Washington State W 27-6 Coast Conference for second place in Atlantic Division), 2009 Emerald Bowl, Saturday, Dec. Oct. 3 at California W 30-3 Oct. 17 at Notre Dame W 34-27 26, 5 p.m. PST, AT&T Park, San Francisco, Calif. Oct. 24 Oregon State W 42-36 Oct. 31 at Oregon L 20-47 THEMES Nov. 7 at Arizona State W 14-9 It’s a West-versus-East matchup in the Emerald Bowl as a pair of 8-4 teams—USC and Boston Nov. 14 Stanford L 21-55 College—battle the day after Christmas. It’s just the third meeting between the Trojans and Nov. 28 UCLA W 28-7 Eagles, and the first in 21 years (the teams are slated to meet again in the near future). USC, Dec. 5 Arizona L 17-21 which claims one of the nation’s top bowl traditions, will be making its 48th post-season Dec. 26 Boston College 5 p.m. (ESPN) appearance and its school-record ninth consecutive, but this will be its debut in the Emerald (Emerald Bowl) Bowl. The Trojans are unranked for the first time since the end of 2001, their last season in a th PAC-10 STANDINGS non-BCS bowl. BC, which is playing in its 11 bowl in a row, is the first team to make a return visit to the Emerald Bowl (it won there in 2003). USC—winner of its last 15 non-conference PAC-10 OVERALL games—traditionally has fared well in bowls, against the ACC, at night, in December and W L W L also in season enders. Troy rarely has played in stadiums with a baseball diamond (this one ORE 8 1 10 2 is in 40,184-seat AT&T Park) and it’s an even rarer game for the Trojans in the city of San ARIZ 6384 Francisco. ESPN will show the game nationally; the first time USC ever appeared on ESPN OSU6384 was against BC in 1988. USC beat the teams’ only common 2009 foe, Notre Dame, while the STAN6384 CAL5484 Eagles lost to the Irish. After putting together a streak of 7 consecutive AP Top 4 finishes, BCS USC5484 bowl appearances, Pac-10 titles and 11-win seasons, the young, rebuilding Trojans had a WASH 4557 tougher go in 2009 while playing one of the nation’s toughest schedules (USC has lost 3 of its UCLA 3666 last 5 games). The Trojans’ up-and-down offense sports a trio of 2009 All-Pac-10 first teamers ASU2748 (WR-PR Damian Williams, OG-C Jeff Byers and OT Charles Brown) and they are joined by the WSU09111 likes of true freshman QB Matt Barkley and TBs Joe McKnight (1,000-plus rushing yards in 2009) and beefy Allen Bradford.

    PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE 2019-2020 EDITIOn SEATTLE SEAHAWKS Team History When the Seattle Seahawks took the field for the first time in the 1976 season, it marked the culmination of a quest for a National Football League franchise that had its roots in the Pacific Northwest metropolis as early as 1957. That is when discussion first began about the possibilities of constructing a domed stadium that would assure a major league sports franchise for the city. On June 4, 1974, the NFL awarded its 28th franchise to Seattle to play in the 64,984-seat Kingdome. A civic suggestion campaign netted 20,365 entries and 1,741 different names, but “Seahawks” was selected and announced on June 17, 1975. Just a little more than two months later, after a 27-day sale, the season ticket campaign was shut off with 59,000 tickets sold. On January 3, 1976, Jack Patera, who had been a Minnesota assistant coach, was named the team’s first head coach. The Seahawks finished 2-12 in 1976, when they played in the NFC, and 5-9 in 1977, when they moved into the AFC. The Seahawks had winning 9-7 records in both 1978 and 1979 and Patera was named NFL Coach of the Year the second year. The strike-shortened 1982 season proved to be a transitional year for all of pro football, but no club fit the transitional description better than the Seahawks. Patera was removed after six-plus years as head coach. Mike McCormack finished the season as interim head coach and then was replaced in 1983 by Chuck Knox, who guided the Seahawks to an 83-67-0 record in nine seasons up through the 1991 campaign.
