Thoughts from Monday's practice, through the eyes of USCRipsIt...
- Kicking off their final week of practice of the regular season, the Trojans sprinted through a traditionally brief no-pads practice that both reviewed plays from the UCLA win and introduced the Arizona game plan.
- Tailback Joe McKnight, who sustained a quadriceps bruise Saturday, sat out of Monday's workout. Coach Carroll said his status for the Arizona game will be determined later this week. "We'll wait and see how he responds," he said.
- Carroll continued to emphasize the importance of the completing the season on a strong note. "We have always been about finishing," Carroll told his players after practice. "Let's make sure we do this right all week long."
- In the post-practice team huddle, Carroll called his players' attention to the L.A. skyline as a reminder of what Saturday's win represented. "It's ours!" several players exclaimed.
