SAN FRANCISCO -- Following a morning filled with meetings with hotel personnel, director of football operations Matt Capurro has all but completed his preparatory duties in San Francisco for Emerald Bowl week, which begins Dec. 21 and leads into the game on Dec. 26.
Fortunately for Capurro, most of the prep work for the bowl -- including all the hotel, food, transportation, practice and game day arrangements -- closely mimics what he does for any road game during the regular season, since the Trojans are men of rigid routine when it comes to meals, schedules and other factors that come along with traveling for a game.
"We're definitely creatures of habit," Capurro said.
