Keith Rivers finally is living up to the expectations that come with wearing No. 55 as a USC linebacker......"Keith is way more confident," USC coach Pete Carroll said. "He's playing faster, tackling better and can do more things for us now. We can blitz him, drop him in special coverage, cover tight ends, cover backs. He just gets it more, which comes with experience."
Rivers entered USC with the chiseled body of a senior, which only raised expectations for him. On the outside, he was ready, and he contributed right away. Carroll used him in key situations to speed rush the quarterback during the Trojans' national championship season.
Asked to do more as a sophomore, Rivers seemed lost at times...
