Stadium: Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum Stadium
The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum is one of the greatest - and largest - stadiums in America. It combines the traditional and the modern into a premier athletic environment. USC has played football in the Coliseum ever since the grand stadium was built in 1923. In fact, the Trojans played in the first varsity football game ever held there (beating Pomona College, 23-7, on Oct. 6, 1923).

Season Preview:
The Trojans are likely to be ranked No. 1 at the outset of the 2007 season and there might not be a close second, assuming USC plays as expected with 18 starters returning, including 10 on a defense that might be as good as any coach Pete Carroll has directed at the college level. There looks to be little stopping the offensive unit from another fine season despite losing the top two receivers and center Ryan Kalil. For any other team, those would be problems. For USC, it means another All-American prospect will be thrown into the mix. The Trojans have seven former prep All-American tailbacks waiting their turn. The defense appears to have a swagger. Barring disaster, another run for a BCS title is in the offing. USC has to find replacements for WR Steve Smith, WR Dwayne Jarrett and C Ryan Kalil. Don't feel too bad for Southern Cal -- the Trojans have WRs Vidal Hazelton and Patrick Turner waiting in the wings, plus seven former prep All-American tailbacks to ease the burden if the passing attack takes a little while to get rolling. QB John David Booty is lining up to give USC another Heisman front-runner. By season's end, the offense might challenge the defense as the team's most vaunted unit. Michigan was pushed around -- shoved around, maybe even stomped around -- in January's Rose Bowl. That by a defensive unit that was just starting to feel its way around. With 10 starters back -- including pass-rushing specialist Lawrence Jackson, tackling machine LB Rey Maualuga and star safety Taylor Mays -- there will be few points scored against one of the nation's deepest and most-talented teams. The Trojans are still dealing with the death of K Mario Danelo, who led the team with 89 points and made 15 of 16 field goals last year before falling off a cliff on Jan. 6. His replacement could be David Buehler. P Greg Woidneck will be asked for more production after averaging just 38.2 yards per boot. Not much more can be expected from C.J. Gable, the Pac-10's No. 2 kickoff returner who boasted a 27-yard average.
