2013 NFL Draft Projections
USC football had only three players drafted in 2012, which was its lowest total since 2002. In this case, the stat reflects more on how loaded the Trojans are for next season more than any talent attrition in the program.
As the 2013 mock drafts start to come out, it is clear that USC players will dominate the headlines next April. For example, Pete Prisco of CBSSports.com has three Trojans...

2011 USC Season Recap
The #9 USC Trojans (10-2, 7-2 Pac-12) finished strong and obliterated the so-called South division champs, the UCLA Bruins (6-6, 5-4 Pac-12), 50-0 on Saturday night.

USC makes Pac-12 'Championship' Game a Joke
The No. 10* USC Trojans (10-2, 7-2 Pac-12) buried the UCLA Bruins (6-6, 5-4 Pac-12) 50-0 and sent a message to the college football world.
Not only are the Trojans back in the top of college football, but the Pac-12 Conference “championship” game is meaningless because the best team is not there.
Highlights USC 50, UCLA 0
QB Matt Barkley (35-of-42, 83 percent, 423 yards, six TDs, zero INTs)...

Sanctions will keep USC out of the conference...

With a victory over their crosstown rivals this past Saturday, USC will be the first ever Pac-12 South Champions. However, while the division championship is within their grasp, their chances of playing in the Pac-12 Championship Game are equal...

USC 38, #4 Oregon 35
The No. 18* USC Trojans (9-2) shocked the No. 4* Oregon Ducks (9-2) 38-35 by getting a big enough lead to hold on for victory even with two turnovers in the last eight minutes as most of the 59,933 fans watched in disbelief.
Matt Barkley was confident that USC (No. 18 AP) was headed for an upset all along, even when fourth-ranked Oregon mounted a comeback.
“We expected to shock...
