Tomorrow's USC-University of Southern
California football game reunites two adversaries
on opposite ends of the field.
Both DSC head coach Joe Morrison and (
Southern Cal head coach Ted Tollner are in (
their first years at their respective schools. ,
Morrison coached against Tollner when ,
the latter was the offensive coordinator at '
both Brigham Young and San Diego State
universities, while Morrison was at
the University of New Mexico in the Western
Athletic Conference.
TOLLNER SAID he was disappointed in
the Trojans ? who come off a 26-20 upset by
Kansas this past week ? so far, adding that
his squad was "not a good football team in
any phase of the game."
Despite the tradition of great running s
backs at Southern Cal, including Heisman k
Trophy winners O.J. Simpson and Marcus 1
Allen, Tollner said the Trojans' strong point t
should be quarterback Sean Salisbury. a
Morrison also praised the 6-6, 210-pound
junior. "I'm impressed with their quarter- [
back Sean Salisbury. He is a winner and gets i
nit; juu uv/uv. v
Tollner said his running backs weren't
playing as "consistent to continue Southern 1
Cal's tradition of running backs." <
