Loading ...Only three days now until that Rumble in the Coliseum. “Yesterday we gave the special teams”:http://clog.dailycal.org/sports/battle-for-the-roses-preview-special-teams advantage to D-jax and the Bears.
Today we look at how that ’SC offense looks against Cal’s defense.
It seems like USuC has always had a double-barreled rushing attack since Pete Carroll’s been there.
For the last two years it’s been Bush & White. This year it’s freshman Emmanuel Moody and senior Chauncey Washington, both of whom are in the top 10 in the conference in rushing yards per game.
But the staple of this year’s Trojans squad is that passing game. And while gunslinger John David Booty is no Matt Leinart (Booty is less inclined to be seen sneaking out of Paris Hilton’s pad), arguably the best receiving combo in the nation suits up for ’SC.
With Dwayne Jarrett finally healthy, it will be mighty tough for a team like the Bears, who have the worst pass defense in the Pac-10, to shut down Jarrett and Steve Smith.
Sure Daymeion Hughes (seen below doin’ what he do) has a Pac-10 leading eight picks, but whoever the other corner is besides Hughes will get exposed.

The Bears’ pass rush will get Booty on his booty a few times during the game, but not enough to slow down the Trojans.
*Advantage: Southern California*
