Season recap: USC - ESPN
USC TROJANS - Record: 10-2, 7-2 Pac-12
USC returned to the nation's elite in year two under coach Lane Kiffin, and it's a pity that the Trojans can't represent the Pac-12 in the bowl season due to dubious NCAA sanctions because few teams played better at season's end. Things didn't start off with a bang. A 3-0 start wasn't impressive against weak competition, and then the Trojans were sloppy in a loss at Arizona State. There was little hint that this was a top-10 team with a Heisman Trophy candidate at quarterback...

Charlie Weis is the Next Coach at Kansas - Pre Snap Read.
Charlie Weis will be the next head coach at Kansas. I know you’ve heard this already, but give it another moment to sink: Kansas, looking to replace Turner Gill, hired Charlie Weis. Formerly of the N.F.L, formerly of Notre Dame, then of Florida. Weis, who went to back-to-back B.C.S. bowls with the Irish and then went 16-21 over three seasons with his own players and his offensive system fully in place. A coach whose schematic advantage was seemingly rivaled by his own arrogance. Weis, whose offense with the Gators finished the regular season ranked 102nd in the nation. This was surprising. Weis left Gainesville with class, first interviewing with Kansas without informing his boss, Will Muschamp, and then taking the job as Muschamp was on his way to a press conference for the Gator Bowl. Muschamp and Florida can take some solace in the fact that Weis’s replacement can only be an improvement...

Why Matt Barkley Should Stay and Why We’ll Cheer If He Doesn’t - Lost Angeles
...I’m not begging you to stay. Truthfully, I’ve seen Palmer leave and Leinart arrive. I’ve seen USC replace too many great players in these ten or so years to feel the need to beg anyone to do anything, certainly not a guy who injected life back into the team and assured we’ll continue to prosper when that possibility was called into question. I’m just saying we’ve ridden the wave this far. You will be favored to win everything. You will get to face an SEC team. You will have a chance to literally prove that sanctions meant nothing. You can rewrite the history books where people try to explain what the NCAA’s harshest penalties in decades even accomplished...

Think Larry Scott is eager to get USC back in the postseason mix next year? Before Friday’s Pac-12 Championship Game at Oregon, Scott revealed that USC was involved in two of ESPN/ABC’s top six highest-rated games this season (vs. Stanford, at Oregon). Scott also said it was “disappointing” that the Trojans were not allowed to participate. “It’s not something we control,” Scott said. “Obviously, we and USC are abiding by other decisions by the NCAA.”...

USC wins 4th national title in a row - OC Register
The USC men’s water polo team became the first to win four consecutive national championships by defeating UCLA, 7-4, on Sunday in Berkeley. Top-seeded USC won its fifth title in seven seasons and its 116th overall team national championship. Senior goalie Joel Dennerley made 15 saves and landed NCAA Tournament MVP honors.

Stanford headed to Fiesta Bowl - ESPN
As expected, the Stanford Cardinal were tapped as an at-large selection for the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. They'll face Oklahoma State on Jan. 2 in Glendale, Ariz. Stanford held on to its No. 4 spot in the BCS standings, behind LSU, Alabama and Oklahoma State, guaranteeing them a spot in a BCS bowl game. At first glance, this game appears to be a shootout in the making featuring two of the nation's top quarterbacks in Stanford's Andrew Luck and Oklahoma State's Brandon Weeden.

Leach, Rodriguez and, maybe, Jones in the Pac-12? What does it mean for Oregon? - The Oregonian
...things are shifting dramatically before our eyes. Washington State has brought Mike Leach and his Air Raid offense to Pullman. Arizona has imported Rich Rodriguez, who runs a spread-option offense that is strikingly similar to what Oregon does. SMU coach June Jones, the former Grant High and Portland State star, reportedly is talking to both Arizona State and UCLA. Under Jones, the old Mouse Davis run-and-shoot has evolved into an offense that recently took Hawaii to the Sugar Bowl...
