I was excited to finally be asked to cover a USC football game, except this was a spring game with nothing on the line. I’ve been wanting to cover these games for US Presswire or the Daily Trojan, it’s just I am a rookie compared to people that already have been in the company or at the school for years. Well it was good to get a few shots of the spring game with the “Cardinal” offensive team versus the “White” defensive team. The defense really stepped it up compared to last season, causing the offense to struggle slightly. USC Trojans quarterback Matt Barkley prepares to throw the ball.
